Reliance on electricity - the US

We rely on electricity so much, what would happen if terrorists strike power plants, transformers etc. If a whole country loses its electricty supply how much corruption will it cause? Would it corrupt the world? Why not attack the US and their electricity? That would so bring the entire world down. Along with electricity, why not then strike the people? How about night time? I believe the next major attack will involve something to do with electricity? The longer without electricity, the more corruption it will cause. It will cause huge fear not to our lives but how we live. With the dollar becoming more worthless, if the economy stoped for one day without electricity, it would never be able to catch up the loss, i reckon. The economy cannot run without electricity. Maybe the terrorists are waiting for the dollar to go even lower than ever.
