John Rubino--Is The Political Bubble Getting Ready To Pop? #2778

John writes, "Now it’s not just Europe where formerly-fringe candidates are suddenly vying for power. The US presidential primaries, which were supposed to be coronations for the latest Bush/Clinton snoozfest, have turned interesting and in some cases surreal, as Donald Trump, who a few short months ago was viewed as a kind of circus clown by most Republicans, and Bernie Sanders, an honest, straight-shooting avowed socialist, are drawing the biggest crowds and creating the most excitement. But far from being a surprise, this is exactly the kind of thing an over-indebted and therefore ungovernable society should expect."
