Comment: This article went off the rails

"Remember: Every government wants to become like North Korea, where it dominates everything in society, controls all the resources and commands citizens as if they were slaves. The U.S. government is no different: Like every government, it thirsts for unlimited power."

...

"When that scenario unfolds, it's a simple matter of fact that we're going to see the mass death of liberal media worshippers and Big Government worshippers who refused to prepare. The survivors will, by and large, be the preppers who planned ahead."

So is the government plan to enslave or annihilate?

The article started well enough, then defeated itself. It could have been reasonable, showing how being prepared was cheaper and a lot easier than not, but no, it had to go right into wild speculation about extinction level events and the like.
