frustrating isn't it? not only is it nothing new, it's the same pattern that ALWAYS happens, and yet The powers always do it, and the Sheeple always get led blindly to the slaughter.

It is when the upper class and the middle class divide becomes larger. Our country is no different than any other country when you look at how the divide is growing wider everyday. These are the simple things that lead to civil unrest and eventually war.

the revolts don't start going national and then global until people cant afford to eat and feed their kids.

anybody who thinks we are far from it has got a very nasty blindside shock coming all too soon, IMO.

I personally think that it's *technically* not yet too late, but that they would have to take
very strong actions to reverse course, and go in a different direction, and suffer a lot of pain anyway, and no politician is ever going to do that on "their watch"
and instead they are just pressing the accelerator down harder, so its not too late, but it is unfortunately inevitable.
I think the biggest question that should be asked is being that we (the world) have monumental changes coming down the line, how do we ensure that what replaces the old isnt even worse?
bearing in mind that we are now well into the "Fourth turning" or Kondratiev Winter -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kondratiev_wave having only emerged from the last one after WWII that this should be taken fairly seriously.
Quote:
The Fourth American Revolution
The next Fourth Turning is due to begin shortly after the new millennium, midway through the Oh-Oh decade. Around the year 2005, a sudden spark will catalyze a Crisis mood. Remnants of the old social order will disintegrate. Political and economic trust will implode. Real hardship will beset the land, with severe distress that could involve questions of class, race, nation and empire. The very survival of the nation will feel at stake. Sometime before the year 2025, America will pass through a great gate in history, commensurate with the American Revolution, Civil War, and twin emergencies of the Great Depression and World War II.
