The beginnings of revolution?

PEORIA, IL -- Here is the most fascinating article to appear recently, by the brilliant thinker and writer  Chris Hedges.  It's on revolution. It might happen sooner than we think.

Also worth reading:  Tom Friedman's column in the New York Times on the real meaning of the government shutdown. Hint: our democracy is at stake, and there's no accountability.

And this:  a US default (Oct. 17 is the judgment day) would be beneficial for some, by the sharp economist Dean Baker.

Are we on the edge of a cliff? 

Common sense for all situations:  Keep your gas tank at least half full and a bicycle nearby, keep enough food at home to survive for a few days, keep a portable typewriter in your basement so you don't need electricity to communicate.  This works for a tornado, an ice storm, or a revolution, maybe.
