The poor do not have the ability to manipulate mass quantities of people, the rich do. Because they are rich and have the resources and connections to accomplish this. They buy politicians and manipulate to cause the conditions you describe. If they were not rich, they could not do that.

Blaming the poor for being manipulated is bad faith. And victim blaming is not an effective rallying strategy.
