The bravest people in America now are the Wall Street Protestors all over America. While you sit in your warm homes even though you can’t afford to pay your mortgage or heating bills anymore, the street warriors are out there banging their drums, armed only in with their cardboard signs, getting assaulted by the police in just a small hope that the rich and powerful will soften up and share the nation’s wealth with the people. This is reminiscent of the French Revolution and any uprising in the Middle Ages where the poor towns people armed with nothing stormed the castles of the rich politicians and royalty of their day. LEAVE THE PEOPLE ALONE In fact if every American in New York alone stopped working for just one day, the financial mess would cause much havoc to the corporate profit pocketbook that maybe then they would notice the frustration. Let these few bands of people do the work for most lazy Americans. They are now getting beatings and arrested. The news people are not even giving them much news coverage because the news reporters are owned by big rich corporations.
The Occupy Wall Street movement should not go away. A boycott should be planned for people not to spend any money for one day. However, we’ve been doing that already practically every day. Recently in Oakland , California where the cause has spread, the police brutally assaulted them. Their opposition were people risking their records with the possibility of being arrested armed only with signs saying I need a job, lost our home or. can’t pay for college. The government says, lets make them cry even more. That is how your tax dollars are being spent.
America has equal opportunity but not equal outcome. Most Americans have to struggle for everything they have. The wealthiest view is that they are being demonized because of their success. Well, they have become so successful because they unfairly did not share the success of their endeavors with their faithful employees. The fabric of this country’s success was that we were a tight nation of all Americans working together. Now we have CEO’s one person of a company built by many taking Billions in yearly profits for themselves like the names on the letterheads of Exxon/Mobil.
We need accountability for those at the top of the food chain of wealth. People don’t go to jail just for a speaking point or sound bite. People are going to jail for real justice.
