It would be nice if the author could spell 'martial' correctly.

Thanks for the ping

There will no doubt be violence in the future, but it will not be a revolution

This has been in the back of my brain for some time now. I'm concerned that if/when the government gravy train slows, there will be urban unrest. They will get MSM coverage, and the government will not replay the firehosings of the 60's. It took cities decades to rebuild after the civil unrest of that era, and then only after the Reagan revolution. There are plenty of slums in the world that have survived for many years, at a cost of immense human suffering and indignity. Not sure we'd be able to pull out of such a mess.

I'm of the opinion that the one-worlders would not bemoan the loss of the middle class.
