but his predictions for the future of our democracy is as bleak as Orwell's Animal Farm or Terry Gilliam's movie Brazil.

And I happen to think he's largely correct.

And it does seem highly probable our own government is planning for the societal upheaval to come as a result of climate change and already has a bunch of "Camp Reagan's" in the planning phase.*

Don't those with Tea Party leanings also believe the government is going to inter them just like the Japanese Americans in WW2? And isn't this why they want their guns; to stave off the government when they come to take them away?

I'm a progressive liberal and on this point I agree with them. Except for the gun shoot out. I'll go willingly. I'm 59 and weary.
