I doubt that would work. They would plan for it just like they do with complicated matters like legal loopholes. Human suffering has never thwarted greedy corporations from being big shitters.

I remember in an economics class that focused on the history of capitalism, that was a main reason why we have any social safety nets at all. When the middle class loses what wealth they have seems to be when people start revolting.

Again, I don't agree with OPs premise though that this is what'll happen. Just that I could see why some might think this way.
