At this point, I think you might be right. It might not be civil unrest as in mass demonstrations and violence in the streets (I really, really hope not anyway) but I do think that it's reaching a head. Record highs on the stock market, more and more people dropping out of the workforce while the media insists on reporting that unemployment is down. Ignoring or downplaying the problem can't make it go away. With the cuts to federal assistance, we might see people react sooner rather than later.
