The American people will only put up with so much bullshit before a Civil War breaks out. Hell, the stock market has already dropped 14% since Barry won the election. Psychology is everything in markets - this is saying the markets are scared shitless of what 0bama is bringing to the table, i.e., socialism.
And, frankly, I think we NEED a Civil War again. Otherwise, things will only get worse and more worse. With a Civil War, things will get worse, but then at least will eventually get better again.
I don't want one, I pray we don't have one, but I think you are correct that we need one.
actually it occurred to me they may be trying to force a bottom before Obama takes office
Think for a minute about the Revolutionary and Civil Wars. The weaponry on both sides were equal. Neither side had an extraordinary advantage re: technology and weaponry. Nowadays, there is absolutely no way such a war could happen. Our military is too far advanced, and unless it massively switched sides, there is no opposing force anywhere near it. Worst case scenario — I’d just have to figure out how to liquidate as much as possible and then move to another country. Obama has our urban lands in his sights, so even somewhere in the hills of South Dakota or Montana might not be a safe haven.
