But our paychecks depend on keeping billionaires in charge, how do you convince everyone to dislike their paychecks more than they like eating? Whether we like it or not we're in a situation where we rely on billionaires to feed our families. That's why everyone keeps saying "I can't protest or take strong action otherwise my family would be penniless." It's an excuse most people make. How do we fix that?
