Poverty does not bring revolution and it never has. Maybe YOU need to look in those history books, partner.

Restrictions against self determination; including the ability to personally improve one's living conditions, combined with the loss of basic human rights, is what is responsible for revolutions.

Then what brought on the French Revolution? The Mexican Revolution? Poverty leads to instability. Instability leads to Revolution. Why did Marie Antoinette get her head cut off? Because the people were glad with being middle class and having enough to buy their bread?
