Revolt is already happening on the most important level - people are deliberately earning less income than they otherwise might try to earn. Even the able no longer care to fight a rigged system.
Rather than an angry, fiery revolution the average American is already engaging in a quiet revolution: "F**k it - they are all crooks." Respect for government and American institutions is now at an all-time low - middle-class whites having little more of it than poor, urban blacks and Hispanics.
And the drying up of revenue is making the tyrants more and more frantic, as they scream wildly at Bernanke to make something happen NOW.
Eventually the money will run out. Whoever is President will lash out wildly with the military at some hapless foe in an attempt to seize gold or resources. We will lose - again - and continue to diminish.
We may well become like Russia in the 1990s - a military superpower with a Third World economy. Would-be billionaires will start assassinating each other, recruiting ex-Special Forces and CIA operatives as personal security. The "little people" will be totally disconnected from government, but unlike in Russia, our multi-racial society will lead to many nasty little civil wars being fought beneath the notice of the government-media-entertainment complex.
Ugly times lie ahead. A turnaround may not come until many decades in the future.
Said it better than me.
