No. But they quite clearly don't protest in large numbers, and you know it. In the past two years, the city had a couple of protest type movements. Occupy Wall Street and Stop and Frisk. Participation was quite low in both movements.
Can you tell me when hundreds of thousands of underclass people in NYC took to the streets?
You can't, because it doesn't happen.
Do keep in mind a lot of people have already moved to the South.
Occupy Wall Street's biggest protest has more than 70,000 protesters. I wouldn't call that "quite low." However, I wouldn't call those protesters part of the underclass, most have graduate degrees and make above average income according to reports.
i was supposing. anyway, what does the south
have that the north doesn't anyway? if it is
better for them compared to grimy, slimy nyc,
more power to them. at least they don't have
to deal with that anymore or at least a lot less
of it.

Which is why I stand by my original post. Underclass participation in protests is QUITE LOW.
^ no it's not. you push people far enough
and it will happen. just because they were
not hand in hand with occupy wall street
doesn't mean they wouldn't do it for their
own cause.
There were the NYC draft riots of July 1863 and the LA Rodney King riot of 1992. None of them though were instigated by hungry stomachs.
