Is it even possible?
What issues would trigger such riots?
What would be the effects, long and short term?

I think it could happen, but it's not very likely. Despite what the bobbleheads on TV talk about with our nation going down the shitter, it's not any worse than it's ever been. Just because the debt level rises because of a massive economic collapse doesn't mean we'll be in debt forever. We're just seeing the knee jerk reaction in action. That said, if say there was another financial crisis that completely destroyed the economy, I think we could see some political upheaval, but not on the Egypt scale. Think more like Greece earlier last year. I think the major source of problems in these countries that are rioting is corruption and oppression which is far less here than it is there.Is it even possible?

Funny, I watched that yesterday. I think it is a scam where he keeps stringing you along with $49 to see his next "secret", which doesn't actually tell you the "secret", but for another $49 you might get closer to his "secret." I do agree with his premise that we have gone beyond the point of no return regarding our debt, though. Our current debt is $127,380/taxpayer (http://www.usdebtclock.org/). I truly believe that our day of reckoning is coming, and probably soon. I recommend everyone watch the video, but don't buy the scam.I just watched the video advertised ALL over the radio from endofamerica44.com. Let me warn you its no 10 min youtube video. It was about an hour long and the last 15 minutes is a sales pitch, but what he says during the first 45 minutes will have you so scared you'll wet your pants. I have fact checked only a few of the many, many statements made and all of them I checked were accurate. I'm not advertising for them and am not sure I will subscribe because when you google the guy some very shady stuff comes up, but IF he is correct something like Egypt (or worse) WILL occur here soon. I don't have any money to invest or I might just throw away the $49 to see what he suggests, but it does highten my awareness to what I am seeing and hearing every day. I've said to those that would listen in my circle since this "recovery" started taking place in the spring of '09 that there is no reason for a recovery. The stupid medical takeover has always been looming, with the democrats there is always the threat of raising taxes, we are still in 2 very expensive wars (with no end in sight), and the reasons go on and on for a pessimistic outlook. So why did the stock market hit 12,000 this week? I dont know. But he did show a graphic where the EXACT same thing happened during the 30's. Big fall, slight recovery, then an even nastier fall. I don't really know what I can do to minimize a collapse like egypt or greece, but im going to start taking it seriously. I know this makes me sound paranoid, but maybe at least I'll eat good while the rest of the world falls apart.

TMI...yes i do think its a scam but as momech said its the facts he presents about the current state of the union that got my panties in a bunch.

If we had $13 trillion in the slush fund, I don't think anyone would be concerned that it was going broke.My guess is we'll do a lot of slashing and then dip into that old slush fund we call Social Security and presto changeo, all our debt is gone.
Thats why I said we'll do it with a lot of slashing. Regardless, there are going to have to be cuts.If we had $13 trillion in the slush fund, I don't think anyone would be concerned that it was going broke.My guess is we'll do a lot of slashing and then dip into that old slush fund we call Social Security and presto changeo, all our debt is gone.
