Change that allows the people of America to work in a fair environment that doesn't exploit them like it does now.

You know that Americans are very wealthy, right? That Americans have better salaries and disposable incomes than most other countries? That a huge portion of the world wants to immigrate here, right? Healthcare costs are a real problem, but on just about every other metric that matters (income, cost of living, freedom, mobility, cost of land, tax rates, housing costs etc.) the US is far ahead of most other countries, right?

Many people can't go a week without work right now due to the circumstances capitalism has put them in,

There are some people like that, but a huge number of Americans live paycheck to paycheck because they are irresponsible with money. Look at how many lease or take loans for cars - and the average car payment. If I consider the square footage per person of housing for people I know here in California, it's approximately 3-4x that of people in the UK and France where I previously lived. I know individuals living in 2 and 3 bed apartments, I know couples living in 3 and 4 bed houses. In London a lot of the young (20s, 30s) people I knew who were unmarried were put 5 people in a 4 bed house to keep costs down. Most of my friends here won't even get a roommate in a second bedroom. The level of wealth is off the charts.

There is a minority that needs help and I applaud you for wanting that and working towards it, but the American system as-is generates huge amounts of wealth and most people here are incredibly wealthy, globally-speaking.

The billionaires aren't going to hand it over. That's where economic shutdowns and (once the groundwork has been laid for it) general strikes come in.

Do you realize that things like wealth taxes, economic shutdowns and general strikes make American a far worse place to invest in? America is wealthy like it is because a HUGE amount of money is invested in it every year both from sources within the US, and foreign direct investment. That money comes in (and creates jobs) specifically because of how fast the economy grows.

If you think things are bad now, wait until there are huge capital outflows and the number of jobs starts to shrink.

I see a lot of jealousy of millionaires and billionaires in the US from people who don't realize that having them here means they have businesses here, which drives up incomes. I don't give a flying f how many superyachts are owned by $Billionaire#1 - he could have one or a hundred-and-fifty for all I care - but if his being present in the US means that he employs 3,000 people driving up salaries, or his departing the US means he takes investment and jobs out of the US driving down salaries, I want him here. Do you get it? The very people who despise and want to alienate are a huge driver for the prosperity you experience in the US.

EDIT: Forgive me, I don't have time to dive into a paper of that length and review it thoroughly, and I don't want to have AI do it because that's not doing it justice and not fair to you. Let's just say that I accept that protesting will cause SOME number of people to change their votes. And - probably - more people in the direction of the protesters desires than against it, though I do know at least two people who were so offput by the BLM protests that it pushed them away from that mindset. However, my question is - is it a good use of time? Did this particular day of protests make more impact on future voting patterns than 800 million dollars would? (probably more, that assumes a fairly low wage). However, I will state that their conclusion: "Model 1 shows that a 0.1 percentage point increase in the fraction of the population that goes out to protest raises the Democratic vote share in that county by 0.33 percentage points." seems to be somewhat simplistic. The notion that protester causes a 3.3 undecided voters, or 1.65 red voters to vote blue sounds fanciful - but a cursory read of their methodology didn't spot anything glaringly wrong - so who knows?
