would governments be so stupid as to save the rich in the case of armageddon,people that cant do anything for themselves or are too old to keep the species going...people who rely on others

personally i think they would,young viable people would perish while the old or useless would survive

It makes perfect sense to save the rich. They will need their money in the post apocalyptic earth, right?

I'm confused as to why rich people are useless?

It probably depends on the type of armageddon anticipated, and the possible methods of survival. If it were really were a case of a 2012 style 'ark' then no, I don't think they would choose old and helpless people over the young and those who make an impact on society. What makes you think they'd do something like that?

i think if it was a true armageddon scenario they would have to choose to save the young and smart. like make sure u keep some teachers around or something. I think the sexiest thought of a post-apocalyptic society is the NEED to reproduce. I'll be first in line for sure haha.

WHEN it happens;)...they wont have the option/luxury of choosing who they want to save.

All the money in the world (unless their doing a "StarK" and moving to the moon) wont save them

self preservation

I don't think the any government would let the young die over old people, they would be considered the future

the need to produce against self preservation

I think the fact that people seem to think the world is going to end in 2012 are humorous

I dont believe it will just end. I think that 2012 is a rough guess that a few cultures had about a time of drastic change.
No its not gonna go KABOOM, but big things will happen. With all the flooding, earthquakes, tsunami's and hurricanes that have all happened very quickly i believe that 2012 is infact here. Were not all gonna die but shits gonna change for sure.

thats my opinion :)

You know that even if you're right and 'the government' managed to get themselves all onto the 'save' list despite some of them being rather old, they only actually make a tiny portion of our entire country. Pretty much every government of every country is the minority, so they could save themselves and still save millions of useful, young people.

Besides, there'd be a public uproar about that kind of thing. It could hardly stay secret.

I refuse to believe in an end of the world other then the longed for Zombie-apocalypse. Seeing streets full of walking dead just before you die, that would be something.
