1. Very moving message. This is a Global movement, And if they shut
it down one place, it will start in another. At this point since people all over the world now know what they have done, the best solution for those in power would be to start investigations and prosecutions, retrieve the money the guilty are still trying to hold on to, and restore Glass Steagal here to start with.

But I don't think that is likely to happen. Look at Europe, which is coming here soon. The IMF pressure for the failed, and probably illegal if there was any rule of law in this world, 'austerity programs' which translated means 'take as much as possible from the people to pay off our gambling debts and let them eat cake' while at the same time, privatizing social programs so they can continue to gamble with other people's money.

This is all they can think of to do to try to save their system because non of it has anything to do with the people.

They did all over the world and that is why now the people of the world are united against their greedy, failed system.

I love that message. Thanks for posting it.
