Historically we have seen revolutions led by the people when too much power and wealth have been concentrated to few people on the «top». Now a «revolution» is led by people at the «top».
Will the people accept this and for how long?

Seems like the world has forgotten about the Grindavik volcano in Iceland.
Any tourists out here who've been to the Blue Lagoon hot springs?
Don't bother with the full story. Just scroll down the photos and read the captions under them.
Spectacular!
