Yeah.  I strongly believe that everything the Trump administration is
doing is to provoke a crisis which would boost his favorability and let
him assume complete control, in the style of G.W. Bush.  But, this sort of
cyber attack may be the one crisis to which the United States would never
recover.

I wonder if it would be worth having a total meltdown of the U.S.
government in order to stop this horrible-ness.  Hard to say.

It's interesting to think about how much of our lives, and all American's
lives, depends so much upon the military-industrial complex, whether we
admit it or not.  If we had only listened to Eisenhower.
