Of course killing people is never a good thing (well, maybe except in the case of some of the 80s "new romantic" bands). But nothing can compare in brutality to what the "corrupt politicians" you mentioned have done in recent decades--over a million dead in Iraq (and Iran--killed by the religious nuts running their gov) since 1990; several million dead in Loas, Vietnam, Cambodia in the 60s/70s; hundreds of thousands dead in Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador in the 80s, hundreds of thousands in Indonesia in the late 60s (in the name of fighting the communists there), thousands in the Balkans in the 90s, not to mention the 26,000 people a day or whatever the # is who die from starvation, diarreah, and other easily preventable causeses, and the list goes on...

Yeah, fair comment Greg, it's just the *killing people* bit I don't like !!!

As much as I'd like to see corrupt politicians hanging upside-down from lamp posts,
I feel it would be the dawn of a new age of social brutality, dropping the threshold of
whichever forms of violence are considered acceptable.

Still, can't help spilling the milk sometimes.

Bankers? Actually, the "ruling class" is made up of all kids of people who usually serve in government, private industry, academia, and sit on all kids of boards of directors, belong to major think tanks (Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commision, etc). And you got the point about business moving on to more profitable things right--so all the more need to end profit and just produce things simple for USE.

Revolution. Who do you suggest we start killing first?

Take the profit out of oil & big business will move on to something else with a larger profit margin.

The main way to affect climate change is not the bullshit we hear in the media about everyone turning off a light, but by forcing the capitalists (who care nothing about the planet, only about making immediate short-term profits) to abandon their oil, gas, and coal industries and switch to solar, wind, etc. And since that it not immediately profitable for them to do this, the only way to get this done is through revolutions!
