| #7 The public sector has been the engine of entitlement, stagnation, and decline -- and gave us Detroit and the South Bronx. Add to that the wonderful progressive milestones (sarc) of Chicago politics, public sector unions who have broken local and State economies, huge Federal deficits, loss of freedom, destruction of the health care system, out-of-control public debt, destruction of the middle class, shipping of our manufacturing to China and other countries, industry strangling regulations, redistribution our wealth internally and abroad, social justice, political correctness, rampant gang activity throughout our cities,...and on and on. I'm only surprised there hasn't been a civil war before this time between the haves and have nots or a rebellion against the government. |

| #6 Yahoo CEO/President is an Obamabot. If you go to Yahoo to do emailing, expect to be hit with a lot of pro Obama, anti-Romney propaganda. |

| #4 All civil wars are cultural. There are lots of those in the "maker" who on closer inspection are takers, and vice-versa. |

| #3 When the SNAP boodle stops....urban anarchy will begin. People will simply not queue up for the soup as they did in the 1930's. The intial shots may be being heard in Chicago as we speak. It is anyone's guess, but the tipping point may be a politically defeated, but still quite vocal Obama cadre. |

| #2 I believe it's mostly going to come down to urban vs rural - especially large, coastal cities vs those who supply them with food, water, and power. Personally, let's get it started so we can get it over with and get back to being a Constitutional republic again. Orion |

| #1 The 'burg community has speculated for some time on the fault lines of a looming civil war. It is clear that Obama and the donks have this as their goal, being the dedicated Marxists that they are. The fact they are confident of winning such a conflict clarifies the rot the Left has inflicted on OUR nation. |
