I sincerely hope Davidowitz is wrong because the type of disruption he is predicting will almost certainly lead to widespread extremism in the country. The Northeastern megabanks & Wall st in general will not give up their stranglehold on the country. Washington is piling up sandbags around it's firmly entrenched denial.

Government's many failures in the crisis will be like Hurricane Katrina on steroids. It don't look good. Permalink
