Occupy Wall Street Says Overthrow Capitalism
Nov 10
Anyone with access to cable television or the internet has certainly seen a rise in the Occupy Wall Street movement. This campaign has no leader and yet their impacts have been felt from shore to shore across our country. Recent news suggests that the Occupy Wall Street agenda has spread worldwide. The agenda is simple; the elite social power in this country is held by the big money on Wall Street and because of their lack of realistic views, average people are suffering. So why is this movement so important now?
We’ll start with the importance of credit. To have anything that requires a loan; a home, a car, a cell phone, you must have established good credit. As our country moved into a financial crisis and recession over the course of the past few years, many poor and middle class Americans were forced out of work as their companies closed or reduced operations. As such, some people were left with no income and very little in savings. Many people had to choose to either feed their family or pay bills on time. The choice is obvious to the average middle class citizen. A downward spiral began to consume people and before it was feasible to correct those problems, the creditworthiness of many middle class citizens had crashed and burned. Those people who are tired of being in such a position have one common goal; Blame the social elites and the capitalist system for they are the root cause of the suffering of the simple, average Americans.
Now people are calling for a social revolution against the principals of our national economic system. Many Americans have now fallen victim to the hell that follows any slight shake in the foundation of our capitalist system. Big banks have run our country for far too long. It’s time that the working class members of our society, those that keep the everyday operation of life as we know it in perfect balance, to stand against the oppression generated by the social elites. Occupy Wall Street calls for each and every member of the lower- and middle class to defend their right to responsibility amid a world controlled by big money.
