if the people on the bottom rise up & revolt the people fairly well paid (military, police) will mow them down. it happened at Kent state & when WW1 vets marched on washington & it could happen on a vey large scale.
there will be a collapse and then an Orwellian world.

@callmedubious, Kent State was hardly an uprising. If you want to compare do it with major uprisings: the French Revolution, Mao in China, Vietnam, more recently the Arab Spring and Ukraine. It’s never pretty, and I hope our Constitution is strong enough to prevent the complete takeover of our government by a theocratic supported Oligarchy without a complete collapse of society. We survived the first Civil War, the second would be worse.

@Barnie2years ,
it wasn't an uprising but it just shows that the military had no compunction about killing unarmed civilians. i would think that they have even less now.
