Ok, it seems I'm an uneducated dumbass with very shallow knowledge of big events in history. Thank you very much for your thoughtful reply. EDIT: although, I don't suggest destroying democracy. I was talking about violence against bilionares. As in - you see a bilionare having dinner at a fancy restaurant...

Oh I'm not saying we shouldn't eat the rich. I'm saying the climb out of monarchist / plutocratic hellholes is a long and arduous one. When we eat the first guy we should make sure the others know they're up next unless they get really really nice (and generous), and they're on the menu the moment they try to flee.

Also we should take notes from all the election-reform experts regarding what we want the new system to look like. They've been actually thinking about this for decades now.
