Contagion Libya

Medina._Tripoli._Libya.Image via WikipediaAs of today Eastern and some of the West coast of Libya appears to have freed themselves from the vice grip of Qaddafi’s regime. This situation highlights the problem of the economics of class and hierarchy.

When that gap is allowed to widen, the situation becomes a powder keg needing only a spark to ignite it.
