I know many Americans are just starting to wake up

to the nature of the crisis. But today we are facing the worst national crisis in almost all living memory. There are some who still remember the last crisis, that is the depression. We are facing a crisis that will determine the nature of the nation, and whether this nation is to have a revolution, a civil war, or peaceful change. At this point I am starting to think that the forces pushing for the dissolution of the social contract are not thinking this through and wil be surprised when they find themselves with more than just a few hundreds of thousands in the streets. We are at one of those moments.

Now I am hopping our revolution can be peaceful. I know some are absolutist about the term, but Americans tend to go through major societal changes with little violence and blood. (Yes there was violence and blood spilled during the Depression)... but out other choices are not precisely what I'd like to see. That said, at this point we are definitely on the road for a crisis the likes of which Americans mostly have no memory off, as in living memory. Wisconsin, OH, New Jersey, Indiana... are just the opening fronts. Oh and I cannot predict how this will end.

What is for sure is that the Revolution will NOT be televised, but it WILL BE on twitter. To expect it on the TV reveals a stunning, but not surprising given our collective ignorance of US History. Our power Elites will studiously avoid covering this... period. And when they do, they are looking for familiar and SCARY story lines. such as Union Thugs and slobs. The fact they are going there, means they are scared about it, and they know how critical these opening fronts are... and people are waking up to the reality. That is a yawning public realizing that yes, it is us vs them. But how this worm will turn in the end, I hope that it stays mostly peaceful, but none of us can predict that. And anybody who claims this, at this point... is a fool. But trends, we are now deeply in place, and we are now on our way for a MAJOR crisis.

As they say, the CRISIS is here... work with it, or against it, but it is here.

Oh and the Revolution will not be televised, but it will be on twitter... as badly "sourced" as twitter is.. that is where the news is.
