Yes! And businessmen are always the best people to run a government because governments and all their services should be run for maximum profit and no other purpose!

I don't know how chainmail-specific your wish is, but there are plenty of weighted blankets for sale. Most of them have thousands of tiny heavy beads sewn into a quilted fabric that keeps them from moving around or bunching up too much. The one I have weighs about 8 lbs in Queen size and it feels, weight-wise, similar to the feeling of having four or five extra blankets on the bed but without all the heat/insulation of doing that.

The trick is learning not to hate what you live, but to live what you hate.

No, I get what you mean. It just depends on what we mean by "breaks everything". I'm not saying we're looking at human extinction in ten years, or the complete loss of advanced industrial civilization in ten years. But I do expect in that time span massive and permanent decreases in the average standard of living and the availability of goods, services, and information.
