The country has been headed the wrong direction for decades fiscally, suddenly the Public forum begins to understand all the shit they were promised was hollow. SS, broke. Medicare, broke. Pensions, broke. Politicians, no problem, we’ll just raise taxes.

Revolution is on the horizon...


What in the world makes you think that anyone understands hollow and revolution is coming?

I see just the opposite. The R's are no longer even making a pretense at fiscal responsibility. Some commentary from the right is bemoaning the fact that it's no longer a plank but that's just a last gasp, a note of resignation. The establishment R's in congress have clearly given it up. The Trumpsters never made it an issue in the first place. It doesn't get mention at Trump rallies. There's no indication of a revolution in the works that I can see. I watched the WV debate yesterday. They want coal supports, abortion restrictions, and the squashing of anyone consorting with D's.

Maybe there's a revolution in the future but it would seem that we're going to have to hit rock bottom first. I won't live to see it.
