[QUOTE="CaryP, post: 9349, member: 34"] [b]2015 in Retrospect: Where Will You Be Politically?[/b] I'm pretty much in agreement with Darkwolf. The urban poor who are on the govt. tab wouldn't revolt unless their entitlement programs were taken away. As long as some subsistence is meted out, what's there to revolt about. Nothing lost, still getting your check, why you want to go out and "fight da man." As Darkwolf said, they're easily contained and/or destroyed if that's the govt.'s intention.
