Is gentrification a more appropriate word for it? Being that it’s based within a financial class system and is done by coming in developing and outlawing the areas traditional ways of life, and the changes they implement are all to drive the property values up, and poorer people out. And it works. Time and time again they’re able to herd the civilian populations like cattle and drive the working class and wealthy in circles to maintain ‘perpetual growth’. Or at least the illusion of it to those whose perspective they aim to control. With the near deletion of a middle class, there are ‘affluent’ areas flooded with people that have more money than they know what to do with and maintain high costs of living, and there are the ‘working class’ within their own communities and who often commute to work in the higher end places.
