Ignoring the 99%

In certain sensitive, geopolitical regions around the world, heads of state are sitting tight, even though their time up. From Russia through Syria to Senegal, we see the same pattern - 21st century governments deciding to ignore the loud, though unclear, demands of the 99% and reinforcing their political positions against the dictates of the state, utilizing pseudo-democratic tactics to advance their sinister goals. We can expect the socio-economic faultines that have been developed over the last four years to morph into deeper crevices with the potential for great social upheaval unlike anything we have seen post-recession.
