Civil War/Collapse Poll
Since this is a "hot" topic, I just wanted to gage board opinion.

Inevitable. Every political unit falls eventually, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

I didn't vote because there wasn't a:
"It will happen, but it will be small because most Americans will prefer to watch it on TV."

That's a good point. Although, in my favor, a vote like this doesn't actually impact others.

Does influence count as impact?

Your non-participation impacted my feelings, negatively.

I'm not surprised. People won't shut up about my non-voting. I'm "not doing my civic duty!" or something Reich-ish like that.

A civil war definitely could happen but it won't happen until the dollar is completely worthless.
Not to worry though, there will be plenty of wars, taxes, and new big government laws before they allow the dollar to become completely worthless.

I'd like to think so. But I'm not sure anyone's really listening to me. Maybe they're afraid of the effects of going cold turkey. But look at me. I've been clean for over 12 years now.
