In 2008 a 'unforeseen' financial calamity ensued. As officials in both
the government and financial industry plead ignorance and confusion they
neglected to take responsibility for their risky behavior. The big
mortgage company's made purposefully bad loans, over leverage their
investments and did so with willful recklessness.
Instead of
taking the losses of their risky investments they instead turned to
their government connections within the treasury and federal reserve.
They used tax payer dollars to bailout their industry friends and
continued to print and 'lend' US dollars to foreign central banks.
Their
actions threaten the stability of our markets and the value of our
dollar. No responsible parties have been arrested and no full disclosure
has made on where our tax dollars are being lent.
Crony
capitalism is only possible with the willful and tacit consent of the
governed. The Occupy Movement is combating business-as-usual by
recognizing that it-is-not-usual nor acceptable for taxes to increase
while social services decrease, to excessively 'lend' to central banks
while unemployment increases, and to be engaged in war only to have our
security and liberty decrease.
Both Republican and Democratic
representatives have shown they are only accountable to their financial
interests. But the American people are waking up!
We see past the
fake polarizing issues and take full notice of the continuing policies
in both republican and democratic administrations: foreign occupations,
excessive deficit spending and regulation(s)/deregulation(s) that favor
monopolistic industries.
While the controlled corporate media
continues to ignore the 'Movement' in the 'Occupy Movement', we notice
it in our: devalued dollar, increased food and commodity prices,
decreased funding in social services and stifled opportunity and social
mobility.
