It is clear what must be done, but it is also clear it can't be
done, short of a bloody revolution and the establishment of a
second U.S. republic.

IMNSHO very much an outside shot.

A progressive economic collapse marked by an increasing inability
to provide essential governmental services such as the courts and
public safety services [police, fire] and the maintenance of
essential pubic infrastructure such as bridges, roads and canals,
seems far more likely than any sort of rebellion. Indeed, such a
progressive slow motion collapse appears to be in progress in a
number of states and large metro areas.

Even if a violent revolt should occur, the odds are very high it
will be hijacked, if not by the people that caused it, then by
people equally opportunistic, sociopathic, megalomaniacal and
doctrinaire.

In all of recorded history only one revolution, or more exactly
colonial revolt, resulted in significant positive change for the
majority of people and this was the American Revolution. Even
then a very bloody civil war occurred within 73 years of the
establishment of the Republic. [1788-1861].
