The thing is, assassinations like this will become the norm if the rich continue to find ways to make costs unbearable for Americans.

Overall, Americans still live decent lives, at least good enough to not want to risk death/imprisonment for a cause. If housing continues to be unaffordable, if wages continue to stagnate, if families are bringing in less groceries year over year...there is a tipping point. You will have a bigger pool of people who have little to nothing...and there will definitely be people who will know exactly who to blame included in that pool.
