If the predictions of some economists are right and we are heading for a prolonged slump, then the answer to the question has to be yes. What is more difficult to predict is exactly how this social unrest will manifest itself and who will be the main actors.

Tomorrow a New World begins; in this new world we are going to tell the unvarnished truth. We are not going to skim the numbers or color the facts. The unemployed are unemployed. They are not discouraged workers, they are not displaced or outsourced, they are unemployed. And they are unemployed, to a large degree, so that a small number of people can get very, very rich.
We are not in a recession, repeat, we are not in a recession; we are (…)

“When it came to corporate greed, the Great Communicator [Ronald Reagan] was also the Great Enabler.” - William Kleinknecht
