Title: How Long Before Greece Style Riots Start Here ?

I just saw this on Cavuto. He had the guy on who got punched. Some black guy was driving by, stopped his car, and got out and the video resulted. This kind of thing is going to start happening more and more, much like what's going on in Greece. Basically the government dependant lower class rioting because the government can't live up to all of it's entitlement promises. Sooner or later all of the borrowed cash is going to run out.

If the Republicans take over in November, which is looking more and more like a reality every day, they'll start blaming them, and then the trouble will start. This is just the beginning. All of this is going to get worse before any of it gets any better. Some people will never realize the fact wealth has to be created, not delt out like free tickets to a ball game.  Bill T.

We'll see.  We already know the large, minority saturated cities will cannibalize themselves at some point in the future.  And I'm mainly thinking west coast.  I'm having a hard time seeing a nation wide breakdown of civility by the burdens of society in the near future.  It'll be fashionable to break a few windows one day and not so the next.

I have to agree with you there. If/when we do see rioting, you can bet its going to be coming out of the "projects". The majority in this country DO work, and know what it is to EARN a living. They are going to be too busy trying to keep their jobs to riot.

There, and all of the major inner cities located in states that are financially broke, and can no longer fess up to all of the entitlements. California, Illinois, Ohio, and some areas of New York. I left out Arizona, not because they are not having financial difficulties, we are, big time. But most of the troublemakers here in Phoenix and Tuscon are the illegal mexicans. It's been recently reported many of them are running like hell to get out of Dodge before the new immigration law goes into effect in a short time. The draw has been jobs. Now with sanctions against employers who hire them, the reason for being here has dried up. A few will stick around, but the main source of trouble will be all but gone.  Bill T.

The illustrious Iron Lady, Margaret Thatcher pretty much nailed it when she said, "The problem with socialism is eventually you run out of other peoples' money."

That may not be a 100% exact quote, but it's darned close. And the philosophy is pure truth.

The cities will burn, probably less than 5 years from now.

The mindset of Progressive, lib types is to "entitle" those poor victims of society, and the "Great Society" started 40+ years ago is a complete failure of domestic policy.

And yet, it continues. Generations of "welfare" recipients are the norm in inner cities, but now it includes cable, modern appliances, and of course, cell phones,.....

The evil Conservatives, (not the RINO's), instead try to promote self reliance, and attempt a "hand up" NOT a "hand out", which of course is corrupted at the local level, of liberal majority inner cities, and the "Bush/Republican Bashing" evolved into what we have now:

Barack Obama. The Anointed One was to make it so folks wouldn't have to worry about their car payments, mortgage, gas, etc,....
The Magical Obama Pixie Dust was to solve these things, under the guise of the "hopey, changey" thing,.....

How's that working out?

Even Pelosi's "followers" screamed and threw things at her for the sheer disappontment in BHO and the libs policies.....
Of course, it's still Bush's fault,......

The cities will burn, probably less than 5 years from now.

Optimistic are we? I give it the Mayan calender date of 2012.

and I'm still stocking up...
