I don't know about you, but I'm ready for a revolt.
Well I agree with you to a point - however no country on earth is so perfect that it never goes through any serious turmoils, and no we are not immune to those.
I'm ready for some major Wall Street reforms, improvements in oversight, enforcement, etc. followed by just as major reforms on the main street - mainly people stopping to plan living their lives with the help of credit cards.
No, I am not ready for a knee-jerk reaction knows as 'revolt' - I leave that to "revolt specialist" - the Russians and the French.
