I appreciate the context you add in this post, I'm not sure why you think that people are more concerned about economic issues than political liberty- which we don't really have anyway with the huge amounts of corporate money flooding the political system. In any case, why do you view it as an either/or situation? It's not like one can't be concerned about both.

Who says people are "accepting as long as the social safety net is intact? Certainly not the thousands of people protesting regularly in North Carolina or other activists across the country.

What do you mean by asking "When does a revolution become terrorism?

In any case, I don't at all agree that Clinton is the only dem who can win. Not to mention that the republicans don't exactly have a stellar crew to choose a nominee from.
