people start robbing houses and breaking into cars. I know the rich usually live in gated communities, but now-a-days a lot of crime also happens online. You don't even need a gun anymore to clean someone out! Not that I'm endorsing that kind of thing, but like I said up-thread, people aren't just gonna give up and starve. And considering how the 1%ers treat the rest of the world, they're going to run out of places to hide. I don't think that just because they pay others to protect them (especially if they pay them shit wages and force them to fight against their friends and family), that they'll stay safe forever. Eventually, if things don't change, they will end up pissing-off the bottom 99% of us so much that there's no telling what could happen to them. Then it's just history repeating itself.

Plus, if the rest of the world hates them, who's going to do all their work? It's not so fun being rich if you have no friends and you have to cook your own meals and clean your own home. Or homes, since they're so damn greedy....
