Just like I don't wish for the zombie apocalypse or other type of societal collapse. I'm not worried so much about me getting caught up in it as I am those I care about.
    +1 on that. Same reason I work out (aside from health): in order to be better than a potential opponent. But frankly, I have no desire to get into a fist fight or any physical altercation. All it takes it one punch to the right spot and falling down and hitting one's head on a curb, etc., and you're done.

    I've seen firsthand what happens when a society collapses and it's not pretty.

    However, addendum, caveat...

    Stuff like this: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/10/19/irs-...sclosures.html

    Makes me want to see this country burn with the fire of 1000 suns.

    Just take a look at Argentina right now. Because socialism works so well.
