Make a stand, America and all of our futures depend on it.


America is in a crisis, people are losing their homes, losing their jobs, the bridge between the have and have-nots is widening. The fall of the middleclass is approaching unless we express our rights as Americans and stand up against banks and Wall Street. We need to support the people in New York and all across this great nation by marching, protesting and by sending loud and clear messages to our elected officials. We need to demand that something must be done now, that the middleclass and poor will not sit idly by and allow the corporate greed and the few rich run the country anymore. The middleclass and the poor will not shoulder the tax burdens any longer. We will not accept the status quo and we will demand an equal playing filed for all Americans.

The fact that Wall Street is gambling with our money must stop, their manipulation of the market to benefit their wealthy clients must stop and action must be taken. The majority of American's are fed up with the rhetoric out of Washington spewed by the republicans. The republicans are trying to wipe out the middleclass, by trying to get rid of the last defense of the middleclass by breaking the unions. I say to hell with the republicans and their ideas.

Anti union and anti democracy folks are trying to paint a picture of the protesters as a few disobedient individuals when in fact there are millions of Americans who feel the same way as the protesters. The fact that those in power are having the protesters arrested because they lacked a permit to protest only serves as a reminder that democracy in America is falling along the wayside. If the lack of a permit is so bad then corporate America and the republicans need to be charged with the rape of a nation, the picking of the poor and middle class's pockets, giving way to theft, because that is exactly what these greedy corporate bastards have done they have raped America of just about everything she has and has finically ruined most Americans.

They would argue that they have done nothing illegal and I call bullshit in that. They have crafted all the laws to make it legal for them to steal. And we know that the law is different for those who have money and for those who don't.
The corporations, healthcare insurance company's and the republicans should be charged with murder, they have murdered millions of Americans because of their unwillingness to support healthcare for all Americans. Corporations have deliberately fought healthcare for their workers, spent billions to reduce healthcare benefits while raising the premiums making healthcare unaffordable. Is this the America we want?

The march against Wall Street is gaining numbers across America and also in Canada, these marches represent democracy, some people think there is a revolution coming they could be right. Remember you and yours could be one sickness away from bankruptcy and the loss of your home and you too could become homeless, your job could be sent to a third world nation while the corporation is laughing all the way to the bank that your tax money subsidized, your pension was used for speculation by Wall Street and corporate America. The next time you think the protesters are just a few radical people please think again, they are standing up for the middleclass and the poor against tyranny, and greed.

Pick up the phone, call all your elected officials, write letters to the editor, send the president e-mails, talk to your neighbor but most of all get involved! And join in the march when it comes near you.
We all must band together to win the fight.


History has witnessed, people who stand together cannot be defeated.
