Part logistics: if the US was the size of 1 or 2 states, it'd be simpler. Part incentives: can't get paid and will get fired for any time off. Part terror: the Police here are armed with live ammunition and if you are shot, you will die, and the officer will continue policing.

If / when the powder-keg explodes, the media will scapegoat the protestors to protect plutocratic interests by showing the destruction of plutocrat-owned property, playing it off as the destruction of worker-class property; this will divide the public into two superficially opposing, easily conquered, groups, one that defaults to accepting any appeal to authority and law as just (liberal), while the other is labeled radical or reactionary (left). Plutocrats will further gaslight and inflame fascism on the impoverished right, blaming the left for all their problems. This seems to be happening in every nation touched by international, capitalist trade, in the same pattern. Maybe we should solve this one before the world breaks.
