(2,518 posts)I see or hear some reference to revolution just about every day now, OTHER THAN ON DU. Just to make that clear. DU is always ahead of the curve, but now it's normal people doing normal things that are beginning to talk about it. Really, since the Occupy movement.
It's in the air, it's coming and it will most likely be ugly. There is a chance for it to be peaceful, but that will require some compromise on the part of those 85 people and their peers and lackeys. And they are not known for compromise. They don't live in the normal world of human beings, and they have no idea that they are as wealthy as they are.
The simplest thing is for all the rest of us to just stop buying their products, and borrowing their money and paying it back with interest to pay for those products. That may be difficult for most people to do, but it's easy to understand.
Starve the beast.
