Well, mate, that  It just, well  ..cant happen . The rest of that paragraph is the same ..probability  .possibility   No offense  all that is a pure fantasy  for a lack of better word. Indeed. Most of the elite would be whisked away to safety and to hardened bunkers if a general revolt happened.    One small problem with Epstein's assumptions. The general citizenry doesn't have access to airpower, which would be necessary for any sort of effective revolt against the government.    Perhaps Epstein is simply trying to incise people and flush the militia-types out of the woodwork so they can be identified and dealt with?
