Revolution coming?

Probably after I am pushing up daisies, I can see revolutions occurring in many western nations. 

The gap between rich and poor is generally widening and at some point this is due for a correction.

In my view, people may flirt with right wing parties, see they do not provide the answers and then swing to the left, seeing that the very rich getting richer still and the poor poorer still is basically wrong. 

I hope this occurs peacefully.

Overall, societies have to be fair and just, with everyone able to do their best.

That move to the right - NOT amateur radio

So the Ukraine has, allegedly, voted a clown as president. All over the western world it seems people are getting disillusioned with their elected representatives. There seems to be a march to the right in many countries. I am not quite sure why this is, but it points to disappointment and a sense of disconnectedness.

Like many things, this is probably cyclical, but it points to a deeper anxiety: we lack credible leaders.

Certainly here in the UK the gap between the richest and poorest in society seems to be growing and the poorer are being left behind. This cannot go on. At some point things will change, either peacefully or violently. Likewise we cannot continue to live on the principle of endless growth, when resources are finite.
