Well, insofar as violent revolution increasingly appears to be there only tool remaining, but I have more faith that The Rich will be able to successfully manipulate the masses into slaughtering each other, a-la another civil war, than that the masses will be able to accomplish anything lasting. But, then, The Rich are few and control all of the media, and masses are by nature not intelligent constructs. If we’re really lucky, we’ll just have a limited civil war; if we’re not, we may end up with a Khmer Rouge, which won’t be fun for anybody.

True, but I’d rather the fear of doing something not stop us from doing anything.
