Most supply chains today are measured in days not weeks The average Grocery will run out of stock in 2-4 days (most being closer to 2 days) The supply chain network is not setup for allow for a 3 week shutdown, nor can it be easily adapted to allow for it. Most people, espically in urban centers, would not have enough supplies to last more than a couple of days as well. Given that most people also can not budget for a $100 emergency they would be hard pressed to walk into a store and buy 3 weeks of food even if we could stock the stores to supply it (which we can not) That is with out getting into the needs of Power, Water, Gas, Sewer, Public Safety, etc etc etc you can not shut down a nation for 3 weeks, it is simply not possible
