I absolutely agree. People have been downsized and outsourced and foreclosed and phased out that, at some point, critical mass is inevitable and I think we've reached it. As has historically been the case, the Ruling Class doesn't know when they've reached overkill. Versailles was impenetrable, until it wasn't. The Kremlin was immovable, until it wasn't. Rome was undefeatable, until it wasn't.

In this country, they heyday of the Robber Barons has always been followed by reforms -- women's rights, labor unions, protections against big banks and against unfettered capitalism. I think we're coming full circle and I think the Predator Class needs to be put on notice.
