Pad your seats with Beans, Bullets, Band-Aids, and (if you can, and already have the other bases covered----) bullion.
I'd like to go ahead and coin a term.
Darwin Fire
Does everybody remember how forest fires used to be regarded as very bad, and to be stopped at all costs? And how they suppressed wild fires in Yosemite? They kept the fires out and allowed the fuel to build up until things got so bad that there was a massive fire they couldn't hope to control.
We've been insulating people from the consequences of their actions for so long that the Darwin fuel built up in this country will all go up some day in the most massive conflagration ever seen in our time. It'll be tragic, yet freeing and somewhat exhilarating at the same time.
Just everybody make sure you don't get caught in the upcoming Blaze!LOL
Darwin Fire is a perfect term!
You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
