Why tf are countries with a suffering middle and lower classes targeting them especially?
To squeeze one more monthly subscription out of them?
To just make then skip the culture they can't afford?
Because they don't fight back unlike the billionaires who threaten to take jobs away / donate to their political rivals, the criminals who blackmail or threaten bodily harm (since this is Italy we're taking about), and the individuals who fall into both categories.
Yes.
But billionaires fighting back is just issuing an order for someone professional to do so in their behalf, themselves risking basically nothing.
Middle and lower classes need to do to work, do their chores, fight stress, organise, research, maybe take a loan to pay for legal costs, etc.
Someone might say the system is rigged.
