This is a good question, and one that lawmakers here in America — and everywhere — should be considering seriously. People won’t live with inequality and unfairness forever.
Via evangotlib: How long until riots in the US?
My guess is that we are not too far away from large-scale rioting here in the US. The economic destruction that has hit the global youth population is starting to boil over into physical rage all over the globe. It’s not just an “Arab Spring.” It’s a global explosion of anger, hopelessness and rage.
It’s just a matter of time before it erupts here. We’re just running out the clock.

Whilst ever the Cargo Cult Society continues to vote for the cowboy flim flam representatives of corporate america the propaganda & manipulation to suck more of your blood will continue. America needs to clean out the blockages in the pipes to get rid of the shit that prevents what could be clear flow for the common good.The waste is intolerable,economically & socially.
