And the worst part is, it's SO easy to shield against an EMP, that we're going to deserve every ounce of it when it finally does happen to us.

It's especially "easy" if we were to start at the highest levels of infrastructure and work our way down to hand held radios and small consumer electronics.

But.. like with covid and every other catastrophe.. we do NOTHING until we're IN the shit, then it's a mad dash to hash together a program haphazardly after the fact, and use the event as an excuse to point fingers and blame the other political party for the lack of planning and botched response.
