      One could argue that the shop owner whose business was devastated and looted is not necessary in the league of the ruling class

        They’re actually very scared. They are beguing to send the army. Fortunately the government still has one functioning neuron.

      What exactly will they learn? They will just pick up the scraps and open shops elsewhere. The only loosers will be the “protestors” too poor to move, while unable to get a job in the wasteland they helped to create. Because no business will dare to open a shop on a street where public burnings are as comon as summer rain.
