Not buying it. Even if an EMP was successful in knocking out a major portion or all of our electrical grid, many who were raised in South LA and the South in general who hunt/fish etc. will do just fine IMO. Lots of small farmers and people who could easily if required be self sufficient.

Not when everyone and everyone's brother is trying find a food source. Not to mention just getting to a spot to fish or hunt will be an issue since your vehicle's electronics would be fried. The few folks that live in extremely rural areas that are already somewhat self sufficient may be better off for a little while. I dont think NK is capable of doing damage on a nationwide scale but if the entire power grid was knocked out by some event no I dont think anyone would be fine for long.
