People who have jobs are less likely to riot.

Don’t work because of age & inabilities, but sure don’t riot & I never have. Maybe I could do some work if it was the right kind of job, but if it was volunteer work & I had to drive to get there....then what? Can’t spend your S.S. payments driving to volunteer jobs,can you?

I had to LOL at your comment.
Rioting is only a small part of it.
Having lived in “intercity neighborhoods” (pardon the euphemism) for years, I frequently noted, when calling 911 to plead desperately for my need to sleep, that people with jobs as a rule don’t fight their neighbors in the streets & blast earsplitting rap music all night, every night.
They’re tiring themselves out & hitting the mattress when the taxpayers are heading off to work; around 5 pm is when the party revs up again.

That explains a lot. I worked for over 52 years and never rioted once. I retired at the age of 70 and now I find myself slipping out to riot once or twice a week.
