Is Authoritarianism coming to America?

Yep.

[EDTHEWATERGUY]

It is in the U.S.

@imre420 A shitstorm is coming soon.

@kgdies True, its even getting ugly here in Canada. The current government just signed a treaty with the Americans allowing them to deploy their police and military on Canadian soil if "requested during an emergency." It seems like the Conservatives are anticipating a rebellion due to their unpopular policies. Furthermore the government has branded those opposed to building a pipeline through ecologically sensitive regions to ship oil to China as foreign backed traitors.

You have to remember, that the Euro spokesman is most lightly a pro talker and spin doctor

Democratic, ha ha he must be joking. Everybody in EU knows that’s not right, and its ridiculous to claim it. Maybe some things are voted for in parliament, but War, bailout, support the USA etc. is not.

Only a tyrannical government wish war, and claim its humanitarian?! Why no attention to OWS?? Because they are part of the same problem.

EU is not so bad an idea, it’s the politicians that runs it

Hungarians have fought and died for their hard-

won freedom from Communism...this sounds

suspiciously like a giant step backward toward

authoritarian rule. That government "mouthpiece"

is hardly credible.

@yourtreat2 Where is your evidence?

@MrDpsummers You're not an Atheist, but you are full of shit.

[MrDpsummers]

@yourtreat2 I'm an Atheist also and Faith has nothing to do with it think you. =)

Not going to happen.

The government will be overthrown by the increasingly huge number of people out of work and hungry (no pun intended). The same thing will happen in the EU, and US.

The Oligarchy is too small, and they can't build enough prisons within each Country in crisis to hold half the population of an entire Country. Ultimately, it will be 50% unemployment all around, or the equivalent paid wages that are not enough to live on. Same thing..
