The problem is that there are a lot of poisons already out there, CIA has
uped enlistment and is attempting to do many things inside America's
borders, and all it would take is one bad batch of vacine to take out the
whole Military. If FEMA were implimented and many of the military were
taken out - who would step in? Or would they (the leaders) let things go to
hell in a handbasket for a while - kind of like California. How would
civilians react if FEMA were implimented and the Military just suddenly went
heals up.
Granted it could be a situation of being caught in between a rock and a hard
place for us. Still the Internet (could be) is basically a Early World
Wide Warning System put in place by the Military and they seem to be
listening to what it is saying.
