Judging by what I saw in Nyc, there is no chance of there ever being a revolution. When the shit hits the fan, 1000people turn out in Wall Street. In the UK, the government asks people to contribute a bit more to their pension schemes, 400000 march through London. Americans seem be of the attitude 'I'm all right jack'. It stinks.
Re. the UK pension point, on November 30th, 2 maybe 3 million public sector workers will be on strike because the shitty government wants them to pay more, work longer and get less pension when they retire ( or drop dead before that...probably the preferred option by the Tory/ Liberal Coallition ).
The sad thing is, many in the private sector will not be supporting the strike because they have no or poor pensions and in their misguided view, they would drag pension entitlement down to their level rather than fight to match what the public sector has achieved.
