'Tea parties' NOT a 'second revolution'

A second revolution?

You have Tax Day, when you have already incitement-ready people (see Rick
Perry and secession and nullification demagoguery; also see Andrew Jackson
and his threats 180 years ago to hang people like Rick Perry, including
South Carolina's governmor).

I'm sure on some other day crowds would be lower.

Second, what's your alternative? After all, you're the type of folks who
supported the financial system dereg that got us to this situation in the
first place.

So, what's your positive solution alternative?

Lincoln, when pushed to fire McClellen, asked Congressmen, "With whom?" Told
"anybody," he said he had to have "somebody."

And, don't give me "let the markets work."

They don't.

Adam Smith invented his invisible hand out of his Enlightenment Deism
background, a metaphysic refuted by two World Wars, the Holocaust, quantum
theory, and nuclear weapons, among many other things.
