What needs to happen is that rich people need to start dying. Does that sound like an incitement to violence? Sure does! Why? Because right now the rich don't feel scared enough to make do with less.
We've heard of MAGA, but I think we need MRAA: make the rich afraid again.

Rich people can be soulless because they have nothing to fear.
Been banned twice for almost exactly this, so yes.
Hold on, you can get an apartment in a major city for under $2000? Is the minimum wage in Quebec $10/hr? I don't live particularly close to any city and you'd be hard pressed to find anything more than a studio for $1500, you're looking at close to $2000 for something decent. I wonder how many months it would take to break even after moving costs from BC…
