An evolution really. But I don't see movement towards moderation, Frank and honest conversation about real issues, or greater personal accountability demanded of those in government.

The current structure could be salvaged by massive purges of appointed and elected positions, and the replacements sourced from relevant fields in the private sector.

It's possible, but unlikely. The most likely thing is that we'll continue much as we have for the next couple decades until the droughts out west get bad enough to cause serious food shortages. Then there will be a lot of blood spilled, and hopefully by then I will be dead or have made enough money to have a self sufficient compound in the woods some where.
