There is no population crisis. No need to panic and start a run to Oregon or Canada.
We will adapt and find our way. It is the American way. There are Jeffersonian movements all over the place as people start to move off the grid and become self-sufficient.
Personally, I love the idea of living off the land (as long as I can still have my internets!). I am organic farming on a small scale in the middle of Orange County using nothing but my wits, the internet and the library as my resources and the good folks at Home Depot. I have a 4 x 5 corn patch and a 6 x 4 raised vegetable garden that I built myself - all on the cheap. I also have a compost pile going. No pesticides, no herbicides. I used ladybugs to fight off a pest invasion. I'm planting marigolds to fight off other bugs. God I love nature!
Can't wait for the first harvest.
Oh yeah. China will never ever ever nuke the US so please, let's not get hysterical here. By the way, Oregon is well within range of their strategic weapons.
We can start another thread for this interesting discussion.
