60 Hours - 2 nights, it's going to get ugly.

27. My point is that it is going to get really ugly.

This is a massive catastrophe. 20 million people in the NY metro area alone, and we are not even hearing from the MSM about other places that have been devastated. I'm not doubting or questioning that the vast majority of people will cope, do their best, help each other. But just by the shear numbers of people affected, where this happened (Gulf Coast south Atlantic people expect and are better prepared to deal with a hurricane) and the fact that this is the media capital of the world - the noise is going to get really, really loud.

Power outages are beyond frustrating, they shake people affected by them deeply. There are millions of people who be without power for 5 days or more - that is a long time for those who do not stockpile or prepare for something like this. There are going to be food shortages, gas lines, people not being able to get to work - all the things that happen in storm like this, the big difference is it happened in the north east.

You'll see what I mean in a day or so if you do not understand.
