    Exactly. Corporations have driven up the cost of housing & corralled a significant portion of the populace into overcrowded urban areas where they own the housing & keep raising rent higher than ever before, lobbying & buying politicians to keep wages low, demanding people commute 2 hours each day with rush hour traffic, having police ignore crime in & target marginalized communities & people while protecting the rich & rural areas, etc. The list goes on & on. Like I said, have those protestors spread out to rural communities. Watch what happens.
