      What replaces regimes in a revolution? More people hungry for power. I'm all for getting rid of some of our leaders... but we have to consider the possibility that maybe, JUST MAYBE, revolution won't actually make things better?! *gasp*

      (ALthough in Europe that is disgusting. They should be elected, not selected... I hope they don't expect Europeans to just accept that.)

      The problem is that without a revolution, things will continue to get worse.

      At the very least a full scale revolt is required to shake the tumor off our legislative system.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      The revolution in Egypt doesn't seem to have done much good.
