New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has a dire warning: if the economy doesn’t create more jobs, there could be riots in the streets. How does he figure?

“We have a lot of kids graduating college, can’t find jobs,” Bloomberg said on his weekly radio show, the New York Daily News reports. “That’s what happened in Cairo. That’s what happened in Madrid. You don’t want those kinds of riots here.”
