World Turned upside down

[Aecetia]

I predict the same scenes in Europe coming to an American city near you. Too many unemployed youth and the availability of cell phones and social networking can turn any gathering into a mob that can quickly start looting and burning with or without provocation. Look around where you live and work. Are there enough police to keep you safe? Are you sure? Red alert. This summer is going to keep getting ugly. I hope I am wrong.

No one wants to hear it, but it’s the same problem we had in 2008 and 2009.

Nothing has changed much, no one wants to talk about it either.
it’s still the same problem, HOUSING !!
In CA approx. 30 % of home owners with a mortgage owe about 100K more than they can sell for, sorry you just cannot have an economic recovery in conditions like that.
You cannot make up 20% of the economy with clean energy Jobs although it does make for a nice feel good speech.

Ask anyone you know who is unemployed or living on the street what they used to do for a living.
And no there is not an oversupply of homes.

i think there’s been some debate in past threads about whether there will be an uprising of the poor, the masses against the elite in this country. rioting in egypt or greece even seems not so farfetched. but when its happening in london, a city that normally i associate with safe and orderly has been rioting for days, i start to wonder when we’ll see it here.

If we continue with “austerity for the poor and working masses” talk in order to protect the rich — who have offshored our jobs — from having to pay their fair share (current rates are at historical LOWS, contrary to what one would think based on their hysterical rants), then we will see it here. It’s only a matter of time.
