Not to mention just how fragile the electric grid has always been to destructive action. Even back in the 1980s there was a piece written by some political wonk whose name I failing to grep talking about how all it would take would be someone with a high powered rifle and an attitude to take out the majority of the big, years-to-replace transformers used by the long-haul grid. Checking around, unless the government has secretly ordered a vast quantity of replacements that are sitting in storage somewhere, this is still the case. I expect, should the ammosexuals get the civil War II they’re lusting after, those transformers will be the first casualties.
