I borrowed this picture from the BBC News. It illustrates the new legions with shields and sticks that governments use to quell uprisings. This one is from Xinjiang.It really is beginning to occur quite often. I'm thinking especially of the color riots in Thailand recently and the Green complaint in Iran.
President Obama said in his speech in Russia that people from all corners of the world are finding their voice due to information technology. People are increasingly beginning to demand things.
There seems to be two types of governments. Those who use bullets and those that use teargas when overrun by demonstrators. A citizen can be dispensable or of great value to the country.
Will these demanding voices and free flow of information push through the last wave of globalization or will the repressive governments instead infest the world?
