In this dystopian scenario, the masses would charge the gates and put their heads on pikes. So I imagine, even if this were their goal, the outcome would be far more tolerable for the common man than just... go die somewhere, lil' Johnny.

A virus. People would ignore it no matter how bad it seems before it's too late.  

I don't see it. People riot for far less, especially US citizens. We started a war with the largest, most mighty empire in the history of the world and won... because of the taxes. I don't think we'd tolerate the nightmare discussed here. We wouldn't even let it begin.
