    I'd say because we did that last century and it was no fun resulting the death of 100+ million people if you count the world wars, the revolutions before and after and the turmoil leading up to it...


    The problem in our countries is one of the state of the system, not the system itself.
    "Sebaceans once had a god called Djancaz-Bru. Six worlds prayed to her. They built her temples, conquered planets. And yet one day she rose up and destroyed all six worlds. And when the last warrior was dying, he said, 'We gave you everything, why did you destroy us?' And she looked down upon him and she whispered, 'Because I can.' "

    i dont see a revolution really fixing any of those problems, and it wont happen since unpopular leaders are simpley not re-elected.

In view of our divine essence, we need only liberty and work; in view of our mortal nature, we need for our direction a guide and a support. A government is not then, as a distinguished economist has said, a necessary ulcer; it is rather the beneficent motive power of all social organisation.

    As a teenager, I was taken to various houses and flats above takeaways in the north of England, to be beaten, tortured and raped over 100 times. I was called a “white slag” and “white ****” as they beat me.

    My bet is most of the "revolution" people are just looking for an excuse to loot stuff.

    People are selfish. The large majority of Western people doesn't raise a finger about the Middle East, they are too busy enjoying their own lives. And honestly environmental issues are really everydays preoccupation. Go try make a riot for the environment, everybody will laugh at you, and you'll end up in jail.
    As long as the majority of people enjoy a solid standard of living, and can pursue their own dreams, you can really forget about revolutions.
    They happen in arab countries because they have craphole dictatorships.

    In comparison Berlusconi having sex with underage whores isn't that big.

    Overall things considered yeeah, you right, doesnt mean there isnt a economic recession, to be dealt, and war conflicts going on. Poverty is a real problem, and i mean the new poors.
    Besides what causes revolution is unrest in population, among the people, if our people are somewhat satisfied as whole, there wont be any revolution, but Unrest becouse of the recession efects is a reality, in france, greece, italy, Spain, Irland etc you name it.
    A revolution becouse of the enviroment , first isnt necessary( there is already huge alternative energetic lobbys in western world, and second, it wont fix that problem. So people are aware of the problem, and are dealing with it, just takes sometime, the harm is already done.

    What good would a revolution do? Especially when I'm rather OK with things as they are.

    why do you bring such rubbish up (especially considering you have zero knowledge of the USSR what-so-ever)? It had nothing to do with revolutions in Western Europe.

    Besides, life in USSR was pretty good. Sure, people may not have been as rich nor enjoyed so many freedoms...

    A book written in US during Cold War is hardly a credible course.
