The 99%

The protests have begun. As the wealth of the average man is depleted, it is only natural then to question how the rich continue to flourish? When 1% of the people control and share 90% of the wealth, while 99% live on less than 10%, it is only natural for the 99% to want a bigger cut of the pie . When, in the true spirit of Socialism, the banks are bailed out and the financial system must be saved by the Peoples money, Then the reverse should be true also: The banks and financial systems should save the people with their money, and it shouldn't be called Socialism or Communism, it should be called " Profit sharing, Fair taxation, Benefits, Retirement". If you want to scream socialism you're too late; Bailing out the banks has already happened , the losses have been Socialized. The cost of ten years of profitable and destructive war already has been Socialized (profitable for the 1%, destructive for the rest of US), the cost of Plutocracy and our corrupt government already has been Socialized, so why do we allow the profits to be privatized? Absolute insanity! Slavery is what it equates to for the 99% It is time to recognize that Profits should also be Socialized. Socializing profits in the form of higher wages, benefits, and lower taxes, at the expense of the 1%'s profits, is absolutely the fair and reasonable solution to the inequitable current policies of Socializing losses and Privatizing profits. Otherwise, the 1% get to eat their cake and have ours too. Slavery. Goddamn maddening. The seeds of revolution are being sown, don't be afraid to be a true patriot; Recognize the plutocracy that is corrupting our lives and demand a government free of special interests. Recognize that despite what the Supreme Court says, Corporations are not WE THE PEOPLE and should not be treated as such when it comes to equal rights. We the people were forced to save the financial system, We the people should now force the financial system to save us. It's Socializing both sides of the coin, not just the one that's up. And it's not fair to scream "Socialist" when Socialistic loss sharing has been the policy of savior for the 1% all along. It's like Mao's cat, Who cares if it's white or black as long as it catches mice? Call it what you like, Whom wants to participate in a game you can only lose ? Support the 99%. Demand a fair cut. Demand American profits be invested in America and her people, not rat-holed in a bank overseas avoiding taxes or destroying other countries. Stop the Wars, Invest in America, Tax the profits of the 1%. The alternative is revolution. The seeds are sown and growing.
