The revolt will be by people screwed over by a system that allows the Top 1% all the political power and a tremendous disproportion of the wealth. Americans cannot get health care while money is stashed in the Caymans. The people will say enough of this elitism. Down with the monarchy and nobility. To the barricades!!

You sound more like the occupy crowd.
I see the folks most pissed off right now as people who are blaming minorities from taking so much and giving so little and the government allowing it.
What would be real interesting, is that if we ever did fall on hard times, it would be the perpetually unemployed(bottom 5%) who suddenly didn't have a gov. tit to suck. This group would quickly become homeless and hungry and I think would really cause civil unrest and want to fight.

In the long term I believe that the common working man may have to rise up against the elite 1% who gather more and more of the wealth of the nation. But in the shorter term it is possible the 1% brainwashed hard right wing militia types who side with (against their very own interests) the elitist system and against the government in some type of small conflict that will easily be put down.

So pretty much everyone will revolt except the politicians, top corporation owners and the drug dealers? Got it!
