Occupy Wall Street

The only thing that feels right to post on is this movement against corporate influence in federal politics known as the Occupy Wall St movement. This movement advertises openly their disapproval of the unique treatment that corporations in America get due to their power derived from wealth. The protesters want the money that these corporations have to stay out of the law and regulation making process altogether. Things like large businesses funding a presidential candidates campaign in exchange for certain privileges upon that candidates inauguration or any other case of bribery and corruption. There is undoubtedly an unbalance of wealth in America and, whether or not it is just, somethings gotta give. People are waking up each morning, drinking their coffee, and going to work at such under stimulating jobs with almost no hope for promotion or any sign of life ever getting any better. The number of people who wake up every morning and ask "why?" is rising daily. The concept of money inevitably leads to greed and boundless desire, this is to be expected, but the leaders, owners, and ceo's of the largest corporations have forgotten something. It is the people that work for them that give them there power. Not their own cleverness or their fitted suits or Italian shoes. It's their employees that push their business along. Instead of showing their appreciation with reward they decide to spend their companies money on buying politicians, scoping more land in South America, and creating more stock shares to make even more money. All I mean by all this is that there is undoubtedly something awry with the way Capitalism functions in the US today. Every middle class man and woman is starting to notice there is not a lack of wealth in the US at all they just don't have a shot at it. Except maybe the lottery.

This is a video I saw recently that gave me some perspective:
