Most American voters think the U.S. political system is broken, and more than half think major political uprisings like those recently seen elsewhere around the world are likely to happen in the United States in the next decade.

These are some of the findings from a Fox News poll released Thursday.

Maybe our money becoming worthless has something to do with future riots.

while a lame duck president attempts to executive order the country into the express lane to hell.
What makes you think he’ll BE a ‘lame duck president”?

He/they will know before elections if they’re about to lose - riots will give the excuse for Martial Law = no elections.

The only smallpox around these days sits in vials in secure labs.

http://newsfeedresearcher.com/data/articles_m36/plague-death-black.html#hdng0

A determined rogue country could reproduce the virus perhaps by sampling tissue from the graves of known victims of smallpox, it has already been done with The Plague bacterium. You also mentioned secure labs, how secure do you think the CDC in Atlanta would be under a determined attack...

An Apocalyptic scenario was considered after 9/11, causing the propagation of the SmallPox Vaccine program in 2002

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Good point!

However...Wouldn't just as many Liberal/Communists get the disease as conservatives?

And...Maybe they could get away with vaccinating a few key government leaders but if went beyond a dozen or more the conspiracy would collapse.

Fox tells it like it is? Lol. I don’t go for any television to “tell it like it is”, that’s not what they do! It’s television!

Will those riots be “race” riots or “black” riots?
You know, there is a difference. However, the lame stream, state-run media has been using the term “race” riots for years. Why is that? If blacks are the ones “rioting” then it should be correctly referred to as a “black riot”.

How do race riots help Zero get re-elected?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A few flash mobs in swing areas will keep some whites from the polls.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Would've worked in 2000, in Florida, maybe.

But this election doesn't figure to be that close.

And "race riots" doesn't equate to "a few flash mobs"

...there's one thing I can't figure out... How do race riots help Zero get re-elected?

Simple logic dictates that violence won't help Obama win re-election. "The first post-racial president" has done nothing but foment division between racial groups since he got in office, and Americans (by and large) are sick to death of it.

Those members of the CBC who got up the other day and claimed that the Tea Party wants to restore Jim Crow law, or lynch all blacks, just drove a few million fence-sitting Independents into the Republican column.

All of the wilding and flash mobbing is alarming ever more non minorities into a siege mentality. The more of this that happens, the more that people are going to vote for those whom they perceive will restore order and peace.

As of now, Obama stands as the chief instigator of all that mainstream Americans fear. That's no way to win re-election. It's yet another brain malfunction on the part of Obama and his leftist horde.

I couldn't agree more.

The more that the left tries to inflame racial tensions, the more it will work against them. Which, I believe, serves them right.

Nonetheless, it is a thoroughly repulsive tactic that only widens the wounds in our society. Lord, how I despise this administration.

You are probably right. Wisconsin was a sneak preview of that.

Two years, max. When Obama loses (and he will) it’s going to be the mother of all flash mobs in every city of the nation.

Well, I have a college degree, I do not live in a rural area, I am not an evangelical, but I am what is known as a “Tea Partier.” So, of those interviewed, I meet the criteria for one of them.

The rich have options. Many of them have moved their factories overseas, for instance.

we have about thr highest corporate tax rate in the world. If you were the CEO of an American corporation and wanted to return to your stockholders the highest return on their investment possible, would you not consider moving out of the country???First of all, make no mistake about it, corporations do not pay income taxes......yes they are called that but the corporation merely passes the tax burden on to consumers through higher prices....guess what?, if you make the product here, no one will buy it because it is too expensive. If you make the SAME product elsewhere, poeple buy it because it is priced right. Why do liberals want to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs??? Treat corporations and rich people properly and they will stay here and continue to pay 90 or so percent of all income taxes collected. Treat them poorly and they will enjoy their new homes elsewhere. We are so very stupid when it comes to tax policy that it boggles ones mind.
