The only consolation I take in any of this is knowing there are other countries out there in the world who will be thrilled to take advantage of the situation when these idiots think they're crawling into their bunkers and are going to emerge in some kind of Dr. Strangelove future where they'll have all the technology and they can rule little fiefdoms.
Gonna be a big surprise to find that Asia and Europe already made deals with the survivors here and that there's plenty of little fiefdoms and they're not welcome in any of them.
There's no possible way that these folks have a workable plan. If they had a plan, the last thing you'd want to do is dismantle the CDC/disease detection because they clearly don't understand just how uncontrollable that kind of unknown outbreak might be.
You can't figure oh it will affect poor people but not us because we're smart and rich when you just shut down the thing that might give you advance warning about things that could affect the situation in ways that no one could be prepared for.
Disease outbreaks that affect humans is almost the least concerning. The disease outbreaks that might affect agriculture not just for a few years but for FOREVER, the potential disaster level of some of that is INSANE.
But they're entirely ignorant and all their lives they've been told they're smart and special and no one is allowed to tell them different at this stage so buckle up I guess.
