Social Commentary: Occupy Wall St./Still More


Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the park, here are some statistics that will only add more fuel to the fire sparked by the Occupy Wall St. demonstrations which are now well into their second month:

The top 1% of wage earners in the US increased their wealth by 275% in the last year.

Exxon Mobile reported a 3rd Quarter profit of $10.3 Billion, an increase of 41% over last year.

The aggregate Student Loan Debt in this county is approaching $1 Trillion, or more than all the Credit Card Debt combined.

OK. So, now who are you going to believe is telling the truth about economics in the country - the whacked out hippies and malcontents at Zuccotti Park and around the country, or the suits on Wall St.?

WAKE THE F' UP AMERICA!

Stop buying the line of shit offered to you by those who support massive, powerful companies like Exxon Mobil. Of course, all corporations are not ALL bad, at least not all of the time. In fairness, they are not only expected to make a profit, they are completely ENTITLED to make a profit. But NEVER forget: THE BOTTOM LINE FOR ALL CORPORATIONS IS THEIR BOTTOM LINE!!

End corporate greed now!

How? By not supporting candidates who support BIG BUSINESS by promising to gut the EPA and remove virtually ALL other regulatory agencies that would impose checks and balances on BIG BUSINESS. They are thick as thieves. You know who you are. And, now, so do we! They must not win election. They shall not win election. Balance must be restored.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
