Since before the Occupy Movement began, I’ve had a lot of concerns about our economy, our government, and how money buys politicians into office. We need a separation of corporate money and politics. The people of these United States of America have lost the popular vote. Sure, we still vote in the elections, but it’s money that put most of the candidates on the ballot.
We don’t need more taxes, just tax everybody the same. Make the 1% pay the same taxes as the 99%. Stop corporations from donating to politics. Create donation limits in politics and enforce them.
As for our Constitutional rights, I’ve seen how our country is taking away our 1st Amendment and 4th Amendment rights. Is the Main Stream Media covering this problem? Not as well as they should. As it is, they’re all owned by the 1%. So it comes down the Citizen Journalists, who have been live streaming these problems on the internet, showing people that the police are violating our rights.
It’s passed time to fight for our rights. We need to fight for our rights. We need to show the government that we aren’t going to stand for it anymore. We need to start making our votes count. We need to put people into office who are there for the 100%, not just the 1%. We need to start taking care of our own people.
Stop making this great country into a police state. We invade 3rd world countries to “liberate” them, while what we really need to do is liberate ourselves.
I fully support the Occupy Wall Street Movement. It’s already a worldwide movement. I’ve gone to three General Assemblies at Occupy Oakland. I really like what these people have to say, and have been participating as much as I can.
Sorry if I jumped around to much in there. This is my first political post.
