Oh look, another anon with a fake story exposed by thinking food stamps get distributed on the first of the month like happened in the 1980s. Why would someone who gets their full monthly allotment on October 31st riot on November 1st? They have a full month of benefits on their card. For those who get their benefits on the 25th, they have nearly a month of balance on their card. The 15th? Still half a month of benefits.
Try to think logically before making posts. The only people impacts on the first will be the small fraction whose benefits load each month on the first.

Lots of factors but Citizens United really amped up the control of politics by large corporate interests. They want endless immigration for cheap labor and more domestic consumers. Corporate personhood helps enable this, as does "money is speech". In general, all of our rights have been hacked to empower huge corporate entities that have zero loyalty to anything but capital.
>So we should turn to communism?
No, you get similar power concentrations under communism, just under party structures instead of corporate structures. Best thing for the US would be to make campaign donations only permitted by those who are eligible to vote in the election for which the donation is aimed. Getting rid of universal suffrage is an advanced goal, but simply getting big money out of elections would do wonders for policy as politicians would no longer have campaign interests in catering to trillion dollar companies.
