Our society is structured differently. The middle class is suburban not urban - and all the corpocracy has to do is control the price of gasoline to restrict travel.
It's interesting to think about what an american spring of rage would look like.
I suspect it will be more like a "spring of meh" - apathy and helplessness and FUD escalated to the level of a slow moving general "productivity strike" and consumer strike.
Hitting the corpocracy where it's weak, it's soft consumer economy underbelly. Starving it so it HAS to depend on asian consumers for power.

The "spring of rage" will look much like it did during the Vietnam and Civil Rights era. Millions of people taking to the streets...virtually every major city and University burning...virtual anarchy.
