Is the U.S. Prepared for a Black Swan?

I’m thinking hyperinflation, combined with Islamo-fascist assaults on Israel, combined with a debt crisis and the current fundamental transformation agenda.

clipped from www.heritage.org What Is a “Black Swan”? a “Black Swan” as an event that “is an outlier, as it lies outside the realm of regular expectations. … It carries an extreme impact [and] human nature makes us concoct explanations for its occurrence after the fact.”[1] In Japan, neither the earthquake nor the tsunami was a Black Swan event—Japan has long expected a powerful earthquake and deployed sensor technology in its waters to detect a tsunami—but the two events combined to form a Black Swan. 1. Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) or Solar Burst 2. Pandemic Virus 3. Nuclear or Radiological Event 4. Super-Volcanic Eruption 5. Nor’Easter/Hurricane
