Occupy Wall Street

I was at the Support the Occupy Wall Street March on October-5th some thoughts
It's not all rich kids that have no clue it's (Union Members - Retired people White, Black and everything in between

It is a movement to stop and protest many things a small list might look like

1-Corporate Greed (a CEO getting a 20M Bonus then telling a Secretary & Custodian we can't afford a 2% raise for you

2-Lack of Government Provided Healthcare for all that cannot afford it
3-Jobs
4-Union Busting
5-Bank Bailouts
6-College Tuition
7-Cuts to Teachers, Police, Firemen
8-The minimum wage
9-The Cost of Gas
10-Blaming the financial problems on Public Service workers
11-The US Supreme Court Citizens United Ruling
Now if you want to refer to these demands as "Socialism" So be it remember as Captain Kirk said to Mr. Spock "The Needs of The Many outweigh the Needs of the Few or the One"
