The Occupy Wall St. protest movement has spread across the country and world. Here in northern california the police state took offense to freedom and democracy and came down on Oakland protesters with tear gas smoke and sound bombs.
The more a protest is controlled and squashed, the more it grows, the more it attracts people who were on the fence before, dont want to believe that it has come to America, mass street demonstrations ongoing indefinitely across states and countries simultaneously, in solidarity.
Well the time has come, for the 99% to be heard. That figure includes you and I, just about everyone who is not a top banker, industryman, or politician. Those 1% who stand to have much to lose to a political and human consciousness rising are desperately trying all means necessary to stop the movement and ensure that business as usual continues, which is what has caused the inequality economy crisis in the first place - 1% benefiting greatly from manipulating the human capital of the 99%, and hoarding that capital, creating banks.
First they ignore us, deny that we exist. Then once it becomes apparent it is not going to pass they ridicule and seek to discredit the movement and its participants, and since they control most mediums of informational flows, they can use fear and play on ignorance to the 99% to make believe that the protesters are somehow different than the average American. Not true. Finally direct confrontation is the only means of the 1% to hold onto power and this means hiring cops to do their dirty work. This is why we must stand with police forces to make them see we are the same not different, they are just pawns of the 1%, hired guns.
Power in numbers is great, human potential is infinite if founded in love and mutual respect. Therefore this movement can only lead to ends where more humans live better, even if it does mean a slight reduction in standard of living for 1%, i think they can handle it.
If corporations are people too (Citizens United case 2009), then they can at least be good citizens. We know the banking game is a racket, and we are de-investing from all dirty moral enterprises instead creating healthy abundant systems which service the basic needs of human communities within the greater earth systems, creating humanity.
It has come to America, to our streets. Time to march on banks, on multi-national corporations which distract
