Riots In USA?

Like in Greece and the UK, In the USA they want to reduce spending, cut welfare benefits, they are already deep into unemployment, so a big percentage of US citizens do not work. And to worsen the situation, government do not want to increase taxes to the rich but rather to the poor, compounding even more the frustration of the poor and the unemployed.

What do you think is going to happen next?

Note:
Please bear in mind I do not want to incite people to riot. It is just my opinion that a direct consequence of these economic measures is public disobedience and protests.

Music bed too loud & repetitive. Edit in some graphics, etc. to demonstrate your talking points. It's a lot of thinking and the bland text with the matching, white background is frankly boring. Lower the camera slightly, so your head is framed better. Do something about your audio. Remember: if you want US to hear these, you have an accent, the room reverberates and that music drones: it's hard to pay attention. Content great; presentation: office powepoint blah. you have better work.

@rriverstone1 Yeah, all your points are valid and I have dealt with them. I have improve sound with better mic and also new camera, (although have not use it to much lately), background music has improve, since I am now mixing my own (I used to copy music from many sources), also the beat I try to be more attune with the topic. Accent has also changed a little. I am still trying to improve in that department. (you can see this on my later works).

@jolulipa I did not have anybody to assist me by criticizing my videos, now I have some friends who do and they have noticed the change. I am also using more detailed references to my data. In all, I am learning.

The reason I wanted you to watch the video, was that at that time, I saw that a movement like OWS was coming, albeit more disorganized. It has happened and it have been well driven and with great, clear objectives. Kudos to those involve. Wish I've could participate next to you all.

@jolulipa Thank you @rriverstone1 again for your honest opinion and encouragement.

@TravistheHuman But history has not taught us that. Best governments in the US have been big governments: Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Reagan, etc. And giving power to corporations is the biggest contributor to monopolies. i.e. Microsoft in Europe and Brazil. They did not allowed MS monopoly practices and therefore other companies have survive, not the same in USA. You have been sold a lie by FOX news. Corporations are owned by directorates, individuals are eliminated, they have no concept of person.

[jolulipa]

@TravistheHuman exactly! And taxes were on a all time high in Reagan government. Therefore my point that taxing those who can (corporations, banks, private companies, etc.) you can balance the budget and improve employment. Everytime tax cuts or tax holidays are given to them, employment plunges. If it were a Republican in the white House raising taxes, all conservatives will be for it. The difference is that, no concessions are given to this democrat. Hurting the country in the process.

[TravistheHuman]

@jolulipa Reagan's budget had flaws but it's positive effects lasted to the late 90s.

[TravistheHuman]

@jolulipa I want the Federal government to be almost as distant as the UN, to only protect states and provide courts. States can do everything else better if any government should be doing it. Corporations are property and people have a right, not a privilege, to own property. The Government has no rights so it should ask for money. (Tax won't be abolished anytime so.) High tax on anyone causes them to raise prices and can even kill competition, thus causing monopolies.

[jolulipa]

@TravistheHuman Fiscal conservative is not what you are describing. You basically want the elimination of government, and history has demonstrated that no country can survive without government I agree with expense reduction, but not with tax cuts. You can cut taxes to citizens, but corporations are not people. Having the privilege to earn money in a country like the USA should have a price, that price is called TAXES. Low taxes to corporations have never created jobs, read your history: Reagan.

@jolulipa I'm a fiscal conservative. I think we should cut as much spending as we can so we can lower tax on all, stop printing, and leave help up to charity instead of democracy, cut military spending (we spend more than we did during the Cold War) and let lower tax be the "stimulus". Politicians aren't smart enough to know where to spend money. Chellie Pingree and Debbie Wasserman Schultz are just idealist who think those who can, should pay, so they can spend us to oblivion.
