Thanks Niall! I totally agree. Systems which generate vast inequality never last in the long run and this catastrophic experiment with neoliberalism is inevitably fated to end in either all-out revolution, or all-out war; possibly both.
Elites are, at this stage, swimming upstream - they're fighting to retain control of a regime that the masses have far evolved passed.
Indeed, I believe that our natural evolution is towards true equality and that, regardless of the obstacles, we will get there eventually, because it's the only way our species can survive to see the next 100 years.
The truly frightening aspect of this situation is, however, that the more the elites feel themselves losing control, the crazier and more unhinged they will become. So, yea we're in for a rough few years.....
