Who is the ruling class ?
Is it homogenous ?
Are Democrat/liberals who have lots of money and power thinking along the same lines as Republicans ?
What do you think ?
From here, I see lots of polarization in political/social attitudes. What do you see ?

There are psychological reasons why we inevitably create our elites and then... charge them with our infantile ambivalence about being told what to do.

JP, please elaborate on your predictions. I too think the Tea Party will have some legs to a certain degree. I am a libertarian and do not align with much of anything but freedom and feel I have no voice anymore.I have many friends who have disparate views but like me feel that the "elites" on all sides have too much power. What do you see things looking at by 2025?
