Is this really where we want to be right now? Is this really what should be considered normal? I still don't think so.

Nope, but I fear we may just live in a time of continual decline rather than the beginnings of revolution. It usually takes established political systems (or empires, some could argue in the US's case) a long time, sometimes several centuries to completely crumble.
Luckily though, we're in a point in history where we aren't necessarily bound to the fate of the system around us. Knowledge is power. Of course, struggles abound nonetheless, but I feel better off than a peasant in declining Rome.
