Ray Dalio's Civil War Warning. 

Billionaire Ray Dalio thinks civil war is coming. Not with guns, maybe. But a war all the same. You'll have to choose. Fight for a side. Keep your head down. Or run. 

He sees the signs. Wealth gaps. Populism. Media lies. Rule of law breaking down. It's happened before. France. Russia. China. Now here.

Dalio says we're at Stage 5. Stage 6 is civil war. It's close and the odds are greater than 50%.
