I disagree. I'm also not trying to sell anything.
Americans STILL have too much to lose. Kids to practice, dad workin for the promotion, vacations and such are still goin on.
Once the economy is wrecked, folks begin to wonder where the next meal is coming from...they will begin to point the finger at Washington and all these oligarchs that recklessly spent this nation into collapse. Then, there will be hell to pay.
We've just had it too good in this country. Pain does curious things to people.
There are two phrases that I rather like:
"Feel the pain of a bad decision" and "stupid should hurt".
Oh, I AGREE with you. Food or the lack thereof has caused more riots than I care to admit.
I also agree that the sheep still have too much to lose. Their comforts are still present, so no riots.
The question is, what’s the pain threshold? And how long can the media keep the masses medicated? My guesses are, pretty damned high, and for a long time to come.
