...and I really feel sorry for the lower class masses that really believe they can simply march their way to a windfall.

If this were a democracy where the mob rules then they could march their way to money by demanding it with sufficient numbers. Heck, we could all march on Washington and demand our tax dollars back. Neither march would make the request "right". The number of people marching wouldn't do anything to make it "more right".

Yeah. That's why I cringe whenever I here someone call this country a democracy. To me, democracy and mob rule are exactly the same thing. I hear "mobocracy" when I hear "democracy."

Democracy is arguably the most dangerous form of government devised by man.
