THE RULE OF THREES:
Three minutes without oxygen
Three days without water
Three weeks without food
NOW ADD:
three hours of power
three days of water
three weeks of food.
three months of order.
three years of habitual memory.
Police, fire, and emergency are staffed for steady state, not extremes. Local extremes require national resources. Multiple local extremes overloads national resources.

Very simple rules of revolution.
