Occupy wallstreet demands

RE: Occupy wallstreet demands
Quote:Not quite, kilic. I was responding to a particular statement I disagreed with.
Well, I gave the luxury car as an example. They simply might want something else that they see with the people they are protesting out there.
Quote:You stated that was the impression you got of them.
Well, it can go either way, as I explained in my previous post. How does one eliminate wealth inequality? Do you do it robin hood style? You can't do that in America, since capital is concentrated in the hands of the private sector. The only way that it can be given to the people, is for the government to buy that property, and make it public, and hire employees based on that account.
And this is not possible in the US, as it was not built on a system like that.
Welfare is one thing. So is healthcare.
However, this requires transcending the system in America altogether.
How would you suggest you do that?

Quote:*sigh* Not all of them state the same thing, but they are not quite complaining about being poor. Every country has its poor. They are complaining that the gap between poor and wealthy is getting wider and fewer and fewer people can reach the center. There are not enough jobs to keep average, hard-working people off welfare. There is not enough welfare to support the legitimately jobless, banks and credit businesses fuck people hard with ridiculous fees, impossible terms, etc. Then, the businesses that are so fucking the poor and middle class fund politicians, who in turn "owe" these companies and will push legislation that suits them. That cycle is a problem, kilic.
Well, the gap between the poor and the wealthy is almost always high.
And I think that you speak in your own words when you talk about the problems in America.
Besides, the Banks themselves are regulated by higher authorities such as the central bank of America(whatever it's name is, I just assumed it'd be named as such), that regulate the loans and interests associated with it. There is not really much you can do about it though, but to work hard to become someone that can rise within the cycle. It's simply the same here, with the notable exception that our healthcare and education(including university) is free, however our taxes are much much higher compared to yours(not including the income tax which is already high).
