Agreed, it's easy to turn people with the promises of monetary gain when wealth inequality is this severe.

It'll be the game plan, and has been, of fascists forever. So I'm in the wrong here really for even suggesting it.

Going to get harder and harder to navigate this as time goes on as well, people will accept some pretty fucking bleak things, or as was my case here not fully consider them, for a small amount of financial alleviation under a society like this.
