It's sinking in that something big is happening in Spain, where the youth -- angry about high unemployment and public corruption -- have recreated Tahrir Square across 60 countries.
Today TIME magazine asks if the "revolution" has come to Spain.
Much of the content will be familiar to readers: Huge protests, economic stagnation, political upheaval, and so on.
The key development here is that everyone is seeing that this is a big deal.
And of course, the market has noticed.

There’s a possible revolution in the USA too. Picketers protesting again today at the Federal Reserve Bank building here. Not much inertia yet, but its gaining.

Since the elections results were not to our msm liking there will be little or no mention.
The socialists were routed!!!! And it wasn’t because they weren’t far left enough.
Not much different than the Canadian elections which have been ignored by our msm. The conservatives WON.

Not as long as day time TV and American Idol are left untouched. If you want to see a revolution that would eclipse anything this world has ever seen, just ban the crap that's on TV and force folks to watch PBS...
Washington would be reduced to dust and the earth is once sat on razed and salted by sundown...

This is nonsense. You can’t have a “people’s revolution” just days after national elections in a democratic country in which the things that the “revolutionaries” are demanding were overwhelmingly rejected by the electorate.

Agree.
They can agitate like the unions in Wisconsin, das all.

Awesome point!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whether they understand that they’re rejecting the lefts fiat via a “green” economy or not will remain to be seen.
2.2 jobs lost for every “green” job created?

Obama wants to recreate the “Green” Spanish economy here in the US.
He’s got us well on the road to it. :(:(:(
