What would a nonviolent revolution, in present-day America, look like?
Nicely said. If American consumers (forgive the redundancy) stopped consuming, it'd all fall apart. Yeats, that clever Irish fellow (and don't forget my mother's maiden name was Hooligan), was right: "Things fall apart; the centre will not hold."
I ain't kidding, neither. That would be one heckuva revolution. It's looking increasingly likely, at any rate.
