“If both the political and economic legs of the US republic’s three-legged ‘stool’ are eroding, that leaves one sturdy leg, the US military. There’s no doubt in my mind that as political consensus continues to erode and the US economy continues to grow worse in many ways that the powers-that-be will lean more and more on US civil and military policing to provide ‘social glue.’ The US, under Obama’s next four years, may become increasingly militarized and even more aggressive, if that’s possible, from an interventionist standpoint. It is possible in four years time we may not recognize what the US has become.”
