The "Second American Revolution" Has Begun

KINGSTON, NEW YORK -- The natives are restless. The third shot of the 'Second American Revolution' has been fired. History is being made. But just as with the first two shots, the third shot is not being heard.
"America is seething.
"The first shot was fired on April 15, 2009. Over 700 anti-tax rallies and 'Tea Parties' erupted nationwide.
"Shot #2 was fired on the Fourth of July, when throngs of citizens across the nation gathered to again protest 'taxation without representation.
"The third volley, fired in early August, was aimed point blank at Senators and House members pitching President Obama's health care reform package to constituents.
"Now, with Congress in recess and elected representatives less than a stone's throw away, the public is exploding.
"Though in its early stages, the 'Second American Revolution' is underway. Yet, what we forecast will become the most profound political trend of the century, the trend that will change the world is still invisible to the same experts, authorities and pundits who didn't see the financial crisis coming until the bottom fell out of the economy.
"Trend Forecast: Conditions will continue to deteriorate. The global economy is terminally ill. The recession is in a brief remission, not the early stages of recovery. Cheap money, easy credit and unrestrained borrowing brought on an economic crisis that cannot be cured by monetary and fiscal policies that promote more cheap money, easy credit and unrestrained borrowing.
"Protests will escalate and riots will follow.
"Now, with the ubiquitous camera-equipped cell phone, universal access to YouTube, and millions of twitters and tweets, the uprisings cannot be ignored, contained, managed, spun or edited down. The revolutionary fervor will prove contagious.
"Can anything stop it?
"Given the pattern of governments to parlay egregious failures into mega-failures, the classic trend they follow, when all else fails, is to take their nation to war.
"A false attempt, a genuine crisis, or a declaration of war, may slow the momentum of the 'Second American Revolution,' but nothing will stop it."
