Quote from Tsing Tao:
I don't think a civil war comes about. I think we see a slow fade into obscurity with lots and lots of suffering along the way.
We couldn't pay our garbage men why, because there's a shortage of currency? Last I checked the monetary supply has never been larger. Where is all of it? ; )Quote from RCG Trader:

Quote from CaptainObvious:
The revolution will not come from today's American, their children or grandchildren. It will come in the distant future from an enslaved man who has never known freedom, but dreams of it. He will die fighting for it. Millions will follow and die for it. The cycle will have come full swing. Freedom will once again be won by those who never knew it.
