So we agree. The revolution didn't actually improve things for most people.

No lol, we do not agree.

There are numerous examples of revolutionary change bringing better, more equitable systems of governance.

The only pattern I see is that the ones where the US is involved end up turning to shit.

lol!

And of course there's no chance that the US power structure would be involved if the US had a systemic break down.

Blackwater/Academi and the CIA probably already have detailed plans in place. They'll do what ex-KGB agent Putin did in Russia; let the people throw out the old leadership, then swoop in and buy up the resources for pennies on the dollar.

Thanks for helping me prove my point.
