Kunstler, for all his crankiness and catastrophism, does have some keen insights at times. And he spares neither Democrats nor Republicans, both corporate parties of which come in for well-justified criticism for the appalling body politic of America.

Great Expectations (Not) - KUNSTLER
Typically, for him, the Zombie Apocalypse is just around the corner. Actually, like a broken clock, he's getting closer all the time to being right. As I've said before, crises come on slow, slow, and then ignite all at once. Personally, I think that the second "earthquake" in this Fourth Turning will be a sovereign debt crisis that originates overseas (Eurozone) and washes back on our shores like a tsunami, reversing the direction of the last transatlantic crisis.
What Kunstler does get right is the notion of "Hysterica America." Martin Armstrong predicted 2017 would be the Political Year from Hell. Sure looks like it to me.
