governments which are widely dispersed, and our geography would also create very different situations. I imagine refusal and resistance would vary greatly by state and region, even often county to county.

Not that it could happen in the first place. Good thing. One huge disadvantage do we have now is that the government could paralyze almost everyone just by shutting off our power, food, communications and closing the roads. Like Puerto Ricans, we'd immediately start spending long hours in lines just to survive. Where reason for lining up was provided.
