"Instability is already happening, as G points out in his thread.
I can wait but the country can't. Just a shot away."

The above link is from Upper New York state, it is a meeting about guns and the the law ,the authorities not stating what the penalties are for non compliance, issues raised such as detention camps for citizens, and --- the people laughing at the authorities.

Hmmm, -- considering gun and ammo sales, --- growth of militias, http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/03 ... f-militias? silly things like --- Anonymous Claims It Hacked Fed, Releases Confidential Banker Information http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-02-0 ... nformation. Add unemployment, rising costs due to the devaluation of the dollar, distrust in government, -- "53% think that the federal government threatens their own personal rights and freedoms" http://www.people-press.org/2013/01/31/ ... -rights/-- Uncle Sam’s Retirement Account Stealing Plans Gain Steam,
new government proposals are putting some fire behind the idea that your money might as well be Uncle Sam’s money,
http://www.offthegridnews.com/2012/11/2 ... ain-steam/.

If there is any validity in the above, the US is getting to look like pre-revoulutionary France, it slowly built up and then, Bam ! --- may be the US should be "Medium"

But of course all of the above is BS

And of course then there are the stupid postings from other sites, which appear to be getting more common, such as --


Thomas

"When the authorities tossed out the Rule of Law they did not think through the consequences of a system based on anarchy. Either the bankers and politicians follow the same laws as us or we will make up our own."

azzhatter

"Wake me up when Geithner takes one between the eyes"

hmmmm

Well.. Gerald, when you put it like this.......hmmm indeed.

The French revolution --

The political violence was justified in part by blaming nobles and counter-revolutionaries for galloping inflation in food prices.

States and others vs the Federal government.

On February 22, "Right Views" reported that a growing number firearm companies have suspended the sale of guns to states, counties, cities and municipalities that restrict their citizens' rights to own them.

South Dakota is the first state, since the Newtown tragedy, to enact a law allowing teachers to carry guns in school.

What is next ?- like - France 1789?, and then Maximilien Robespierre? Not good, where are the level heads? Or are we heading into as Nicholas Taleb says in "Antifragile" (recently published) -- Extremistan.

I am thinking of civil war since all the countries are facing intense economic failures. On the front is the US, with economic burst and crash robbing billions from investors. Saying this, I don't think the future is good too, the predictions are saying the increase in interest rates and debt with no increased earnings. Beleaguered member countries like Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, and Nigeria are begging for oil production cuts to raise prices so the oil price increase is visible according to oil price forecast 2016 report.
