An old teacher of mine taught me 'The best predictor of future behaviours is ... past behaviours' ... this little maxim saved me a great deal of heartache, and prevented me from spending much time in the pursuit of a wild goose.
The youthful idealist in me would love to champion the dual cause of anarchy and revolution, however this would be like a general leading from the front - without an army.
What would be the prime motivation behind this uprising, and who would lead it, do you know anyone prepared to die for a 'noble cause' or what they believe in? I spent time working with HM's Forces during the 80's, and there were times when we were instructed to look out paperwork relating to the role of the Army during times of civil disorder ... Look at Northern Ireland for a recent example of Army operations 'in support of the civilian police authority' ... it was not pretty, there were mistakes made by both sides ... which resulted in the deaths of many innocents.
The one thing which could be a 'game changer' is if the free-market capitalist economic system were to suddenly go 'Playtex up' - in which case all bets are off! Unlikely?
You may wish to conside this, when the world was engrossed in the banks failing, senior political economists at the 'Ancient Eight' were more concened about the $668 Trillion derivatives market (actual value 'at risk' aprox. $55 Trillion) ... not even sure there is that much money left in the markets!
We're three meals away from civil disorder, but only three days away from chaos were the banks ever to imposed an emergency cash 'lock-down' ... otherwise its 'Stay Calm and Carry on'.
