>> On the other hand we have to wonder if the extremes from each sector aren't whittling each other down; which could at some point make it possible for the strengthening government to manage the remnant.

Sorry. That is not how it works. The extremes always reinforce each other more than destroying each other...as Eric Hoffer tried to explain this fact in a different context, "The opposite of the religious fanatic is not the fanatical atheist but the gentle cynic who cares not whether there is a god or not."
