Personally, I think there are two reason holding revolution back in the U.S.: The economic disaster has yet too create a situation of hyperinflation and, thus, the loss of basic needs. The average U.S. citizen is uneducated about the reality of our situation. (at no fault of their own)

I could very easily be wrong.

I think those are good points, however things are dangerously close considering the massive gulf between rich and poor, and the destruction of the middle class.

Great point! Today crude oil passed $110.00 a barrel, oil was at $147.00 in 08 when the crisis first hit. I think your absolutely right, when the crisis hits again (and it will) people will see there quality of life drastically reduced and the elite few at the top of the pyramid and they will revolt.

Brent Crude sorry

I agree with everything you said... except the part in parenthesis. I'm sorry, but it absolutely is their fault. We don't value knowledge, wisdom, or education any more. That is a cultural thing. It's the fault of the people. Politicians lie to the people because they are easy to lie too. The lies are very thin. But the people gobble them up like they are M&M's.
I'm sorry, but the problems I see every day are almost entirely caused but the stupidity or at least the intellectual laziness of a majority of people.

I wish I could disagree with your point, but your exactly right. It's a hard thing to except the fact that the majority of the people I see, day to day, are mindless consuming machines. I had hoped that people would educate themselves on the situation and demand accountability.

Hyperinflation doesn't come from recession; it comes from excessive debt leading to currency collapse. That is the current direction in which the US government is heading. Now it's just a matter of how long the rest of the world will keep loaning them money that they have no plan of repaying.

True, I think the Federal Reserve is now the biggest buyer of U.S. debt..... its a very weird cycle.

Interesting presentation although it is surprising that Wiki Leaks is not mentioned here. Social Media giants Facebook or Twitter make it difficult for someone to create a corporate revolution because their fundamental model promotes the people more than the cause promoted by these people. This is where something like Wiki Leaks is more adequate. New services will come-up that will fill such a gap, just as this one: http://www.nuuzit.com
where people do not need to have friends or followers to share something socially important. Revolutions are ignited by non-followers and non-friends. Current leading social media services do not cater to such a group.

There is one problem consists in migrants, which consent to any conditions of work.

Yes..I totally agree with this statement.

Why does everything have to be a conspiracy or some new global corporate order. I am so sick of reading everyday the "wake up sheeple, the empire is collapsing" ad nasuem. Just go live your life, quit wearing the tin foil hat and get on with your life.

This is really interesting. Without theorizing too much, I think social media and networking can get momentum for a movement, but there really has to be a spark to set the entire movement in action.

Social media has become a very powerful tool. I agree with you, that social media can partly incite corporate revolution. Again, there are ways, means and consideration as to the effect of social media to the company.
