Well, what we have he is a failure to communicate or better, educate. I'd say 99% of people don't live in the real world, if they did things would be different.
Just got done posting this somewhere else, it's a picture of our real world and where we fit into it. The topic is Shays' Rebellon, the time, just after the war for independence.

Let me boil the rebellion down. The vets came home from winning their independence and found that their money was only worth a quarter of its value. Their properties were seized and they were thrown in prison. They couldn’t even collect their pay of 22 cents a day for fighting. The creditors didn’t want the worthless money and wouldn’t collect it taking the people to court and their property. The people out of desperation fought for relief. The rebellion, so called by those who were now in power "the revolutionaries" who wouldn't stand for any such revolt in their country and smashed it quickly.

Many wondered why they ever fought for independence.

Later the assumption bill dealt another kick in the shorts to the people. The worthless notes that people sold for nothing trying to save them selves, and the notes they still held were going to be worth something after all, the government was intending onmaking them good only they didn't let the people know. Those thatdid went out and gathered up as much as they could from the people. Those that had already been gather were owned by those who oppressed the people already.The big money men made 40 million dollars clear profit off the deal put through by one of the sleaziest politicians ever, Alexander Hamilton. A man who thought the country couldn’t last unless the wealthy could make money by it. Soon after the rebellion even talking againstthose in powerlanded you in jail.
The deck has been stacked for a very long time, 99% of the people just don't know it.
