Yes, I think we'll rebuild. If the CDC vax numbers are accurate, we'll have 30-40 million like-minded adults and their children. There will be no money for bullet trains in California. Most of the interstate highway system will be toast. Landslides will bury half the roads in Colorado and all the roads in Big Sur and no one will clear them.

Food will be local again. No California broccoli in Michigan in the middle of winter. No kiwi fruits. No sushi in Wyoming. There will be boxes of carrots, onions, cabbages, turnips. You'll be able to get live chickens and weird cuts at the local butcher.

Schools will be small and local and back to the basics. Cities will look like Detroit in the early 2000s, when you could buy a city block full of houses for $10 and all the artists moved in and started urban farming on the vacant lots.

No big box stores. Some guy will be running a hardware store in all decent-sized communities. You will be able to buy a single washer.

The only real political power will be the local sheriff. He'll be elected and he'll be somebody like Andy of Mayberry. We may know the president's name, but he won't matter to anybody.

Folk medicine will return. Drug stores will have tonics for catarrh and croup. Because processed foods will be gone, people will live longer and be healthier.

Don't know how they keep cars running. Maybe we'll have simpler cars and whatever Mexican mechanics can keep going with baling wire.

Church socials will become popular again.
