    yeah it will have to get to a point where peoples normal lives suck more than shitting in the forest and getting shot at. that has happened quite a few times in history but the United States has a lot of money to burn through first...

        don't forget the most sophisticated system of mass mind control through propaganda ever created in history.

      Bread and circuses. As long as people have food and some way of distracting them selves from how shitty things are they have something to lose. The average person isn't going to give up what they have in the bloody pursuit of something better.

      Shitting in the forest is nice, it's way better than having to mess with a toilet to make sure it flushes right and doesn't clog.

      Getting shot at, not so much.
