Cicero posted:Also if it's the scientific zombie type, the kind from an infection instead of magic, tons of zombies staying around forever, such that cities are still full of zombies months and years on, makes no sense. There's just not enough calories around to support them, what are they all eating? Within a handful of days, or a few weeks at most, they should all be starving to death (or dying of thirst even earlier than that). What if the zombie part turns people into part-plant and they get food through photosynthesis? What then??? quote:How the hell do you even get hordes of zombies? Every zombie is the result of another zombie failing to kill and eat someone; if they're that lovely at it there shouldn't be many victims to turn into zombies anyways, and if they're any good at it they're not going to make new zombies, just lunches. Either way fails to explain how you end up with ten grillion of the loving things. As for the OP's scenario - generally no. It's already written weirdly since any world-destroying event will presumably also being US-destroying, considering that the US is part of the world. But if it's an imminent-but-slow apocalypse (e.g. When Worlds Collide) then any government should probably have some sort of plan to at least keep civil society "running" (ie power/water) until near the end, either through bribes, shame, or some other sort of control in hopes of minimizing suffering. Whether or not that is possible is frankly unknowable barring serious advances in automation to remove the human element.
