What could be more terrorizing than that?
The 1% are terrified that their entitlements might be assaulted by their victims.

If I were a 1%er, I'd much rather see the 99% content than becoming more and more discontent every day. The only way the 1% can keep us content is to feed us lies in the 'news' and continue to desensitize us to what's really going on.

They will lose out in the end along with vast swaths of more victims.
