1. Eventually it will go over the edge and all hell will break lose. I don't know what that

catalyst will be, but there can be non-verbalized collective thinking at work. It's sort of like when a scientific discovery is made in one country far away, in days with little communication, and a like discovery is made about the same time thousands of miles away. In physics there are some well grounded principles surrounding this at the subatomic level, yet to be fully understood in terms of the effect on human behavior.

So, to make it short and me quite rambling, don't give up! Change is inevitable, it will happen. People are collectively getting pissed and are realizing most politicians are a bunch of BS and in the pockets of the oligarchs. I've lost respect for most politicians. The collective consciousness of the country is raising to the fact that most of us are fucked over by the system.
