There isn't going to be a civil war any time soon.

But yes, you'd still go to work. Unless you think food is magically going to be less expensive in that situation

I don't think you can guarantee that. I wouldn't particularly expect it, but every year we get closer, and it is certainly possible something could trigger it. Trump has articulated using the US military to put down dissent; that is the kind of act that could trigger a series of events.

We're not there *yet*, but Trump is such a chaos monkey that it's a reasonable worry.
