Fuck that. This country (assuming you mean America) was founded on freedom for working class people. Religious freedom is often cited as the main reason, but it was really a broader freedom from authoritarian control administered by the aristocracy. We have been in a perpetual class war since the beginning, and the wealthy have been winning since the late 70’s, but that doesn’t mean they will always win. Gen X and everyone following are done with the current system. Worst case scenario, things change when the last of the boomers die off.
Don’t forget the power of breads and circuses, or nowadays Hollywood and McDonald’s. As long as there’s no famine and/or economic crisis, I’m afraid any quick and real change may never happen.

I’d like to believe that, I really do…
