Chaos is growing in this "Century of Change".  How much of it is real or manufactured?  The British Ministry of Defense and the Pentagon have predicted the future will be plagued with economic and social strife for the next 30 years.  How can they be so sure, unless the chaos is planned?  But we're not supposed to know that.  The police, on the other hand, have been given a totally different reality, one in which all citizens are potential criminals and require harsh discipline.  Just ask the poor people of New Orleans or the rioters in Greece and Britain.  The chaos has even become virtual, with hackers attacking websites on behalf of Wikileaks.  I do wonder whether it's bonafide or not.
