Yup, the problem is firmly the system, but suggesting a worldwide change to socialism/communism is less "palatable" and believable by the average person.

So "eat the rich" is a decent compromise for a comment not intended to approach any sort of complex answer, while still being a move in a better direction than suggesting things to continue as they are.

Suggesting a replacement system is infinitely more palatable to me than another Reign of Terror followed by (presumably) the same mistakes. Revolutionary defense is fine, but we don't need bloody revenge.
