Jim, While I agree that there is no end to the lunacy that accompany s
the head of our current administration,
"TheForge" is not the forum for that conversation. We need to discuses
art and forging and aspects of metal work
and try our damndest to avoid politics and religion.

I spent a 30 year career as a manager in USDA, of all places, and we had little books of regulations here and there, mostly resulting from the cold war, that had procedures on how we would operate in certain situations of national emergency, either natural disaster or more importantly nuclear attack. This involved control of food and farming tools, repair parts, fuel, etc. up through the wholesale level. You had to (in the event of these situations) have permission from Uncle Sam to buy a new bolt, for example. And I'm not kidding. In the early 70's we instituted fuel rationing for farmers, this lasted about 8 or 10 months.
