America, if protests began around the country in reaction to large corporations screwing over the American people would you take to the streets?

In America, and here in the UK inequality is only getting worse. Wages are becoming ever more polarised, and the tendency of towards monopoly is one of the contributing factors. Take for example recently floated corporation Glencore. It controls huge amounts of the worlds grain supply. It makes huge profits speculating on grain prices, driving them up to the point of food riots in poor countries. Over the last 30 years or so, power has leached from the ballot box to capital (predominantly controlled by large multinational companies and banks). If you want social justice though, if you want roses with your bread, then you've got to fight for it. Thats how we got the vote, the welfare state/safety net and every other significant social gain. Nobody in power is going to come along on a white horse and sort it out for you. TL DR: To the barricades!
