When the population seeks easy solutions there is a revolution....it's in the air already and could happen suddenly, sooner than we think. When people have nothing to lose they throw in the towel, it's happening in China with the 'let it rot' movement. We've had a small taste of it with the riots against immigrant's hotels, it's why the authorities are clamping down on tweets, stopping trouble at the roots before it spreads, don't let anything get organized, they can get brutal if they feel the status quo is threatened. It's going to depend on how desperat people feel, the answer obviously isn't at the ballot box.
