They don’t need a communist revolution at this point.
All they need is for the central banks of the world to push us completely over the fiscal and economic cliff to cause a full-on crunch, then give the go ahead to globalize the socialist governments that are already in place, have the lawmakers of each nation to suspend their national sovereignty in exchange for the security and supply from the global government, get rid of national currency, etc.
The people will BEG for this type of control to ease their suffering.
And that is what the horrors of the 20th century taught the Statists, that it is impossible to control the people with force and arms and it is far easier to make them demand to be ruled.
I believe Glen Beck rightly pointed out that this was a top-down-bottom-up approach.
“The people will BEG for this type of control to ease their suffering.”
I fear you are right, but hope there are enough of us older folk around that see that Big Government caused the problem, so could not possibly be the solution.
If they wait just 15-20 more years, your scenario is a shoe in.
