Another Military Coup in Thailand?

Thailand's 10-month-old government may face collapse after prosecutors said they will seek to dissolve the ruling party for vote buying, and a deputy leader who resigned this week called on the army to stage a coup.

Everything you may see or read about Thailand is staged. Every party pays for votes, which is a bit expensive for the losers. The so-called protesters have been paid by the losers of the last election. The police and military have their own covert power struggle going on for years.

Another coup, and this could turn into Burma. This is one example of a failed democracy - at least with a stable oligarchy one knows who the crooks are and can act accordingly.
