1. One of these days,
one of these governments is going to fall, and whatever replaces it is going to do what should have been done in the first place -- which is to rein in the obscenely wealthy. It might be done peacefully, or it might not. It might be Greece or it might be Italy or it might be Spain. Or some other country we aren't watching quite as closely.

But wherever it is, and however it happens, it will be the first domino to fall, and it will push all the others over.

And whether the resulting cascade is calm and orderly and "civilized" or rough and bloody and terrible remains to be seen.

One way or another, sooner or later, it will happen.


It will.
