What I am expecting is there to be an out-break of protests from the suburbs and the wealthier provincial areas and an increase in middle class activism that will be essentially coming from a right wing libertarian position (though wont be articualted like that in the media) opposing the role of the financial institutions and state apparatus in general.

I agree. I have made this point myself in this and other related threads. However, if this kind of middle class activism helps force a Government change or scrapping of these heinous policies to any sensible degree, then that can only be of benefit to us all.
