Nicked 1. Global Spring Occupy-style movements and Arab-Spring-style movements (spontaneous, leaderless, self-organizing crowds) will continue to emerge rapidly in any corner of the world where the political process moves too slowly.

Simplified.. In the United States Here is a longer analysis I concur with. The United States is not what it thinks it is. Mostly any segment of the population of the US is wrong about the US. The US is no longer a superpower. The position of the US is much like that of a…
