At least in the US, today's poor have smart phones, air conditioning, refrigerators, and better health than any other time in history. Comfort-wise, things are at historic 'best' levels.
Why would anyone in their right mind give up their life for a revolution under these conditions?

- tsimionescu 7y agoToday in the US the working poor have cheap entertainment and no money to take vacations, no way of paying for even a 400USD unexpected payment, often rely on the state to eat (food stamps),and can't afford any Healthcare. There may be reasons some of you will want a revolution.
