          Fuck that. This country (assuming you mean America) was founded on freedom for working class people. Religious freedom is often cited as the main reason, but it was really a broader freedom from authoritarian control administered by the aristocracy. We have been in a perpetual class war since the beginning, and the wealthy have been winning since the late 70’s, but that doesn’t mean they will always win. Gen X and everyone following are done with the current system. Worst case scenario, things change when the last of the boomers die off.

            I’d like to believe that, I really do…

            Don’t forget the power of breads and circuses, or nowadays Hollywood and McDonald’s. As long as there’s no famine and/or economic crisis, I’m afraid any quick and real change may never happen.
