Forum Post: Loss of Profit is the Richs' only concern

I had always believed in the freedoms espoused by our constitutions ideas. It was a very sad day nearly 15 years ago when I learned that true justice no longer existed. I forsaw this day coming even then. I even wrote a book detailing a lot of what I forsaw coming in a post apocolyptic story line. The saddest part is seeing those things coming to fruition. The inequality present in today's society has been caused primarily by complacency and inattention by all Americans to the pus ridden corruption that is ever evident when power and money are allowed to flourish unchecked and unrestrained. There are many days of suffering ahead. The occupation is more than a good thing to make sure that that suffering does not fall by the wayside and become ignored once more. However, the rich will continue to get rich and the poor, poor up until all Americans realize that the way you get a rich persons attention is to reach for his wallet. That is to say, stop buying, using or paying for the services of any and all products and services made by any company or business that makes, assembles or services their products outside of America. Everytime you buy a product or service not American made or locally American serviced you are sending that money to that foreign nation and the pockets of the Rich and their company or stock where it more often than not manages to avoid ever paying any taxes on that income they make from your purchase of their product. I also would like to note that I was watching the news about the police raid on the Zuccotti Park OWS and the subsequent destruction of their property by the police including the destruction, demolition, defacement and disappearance of a great portion of the OWS Library... My question is does anybody else see a correlative pattern of behavior between those acts by the NY Police and what the Nazis did during their book burnings prior to WWII. The correlation being the use of brute force to dictate public policy and inviolate the constitutional in our case , and simple human rights in pre WWII germany, to have our voices heard regarding injustice and unfairness. Freedom to assemble peacefully, as mandated in our constitution does not state that we have to pay for that privilege, or that we can only assemble in one place and not another, or that we can't petition our govenment in any way we so choose suffice it to say that the sole limit is that it is to be "peaceful" which implies doing no harm to person and or personal property. As far as I am concerned, the land itself does not fall in personal property for the simple premise that man did not create it therefore he has no right to claim it for himself. He may claim the house he built ON the land, but not the land itself. That belongs to Mother Earth only. She simply allows us to live on her for the moment. But considering the damage and abuse we have caused her in the last century or so, we are soon to see a severe chastisement coming from the Mother beyond the tiny little storms and quakes of late. But I digress. The rich are only concerned with their profits. Disrupt that stream of profit and their focus will be garnered. For those who say but if I stop using my cell phone from india base company or stop paying for my china based I-pad or refuse to pay a bill to a company based out of some other foreign land I'll get a bad credit rating. To those I say, if you aren't already in the upper 2% class, you already have a bad credit rating as far as they and the government, or should I say the republican corporate whores and sycophants, are concerned. They are simply bleeding you slower so that the shock of pushing you into the class of the poor is not so noticible to you so you won't resist or fight so much against the austerity measures they are trying to get you to swallow. In any event, peaceful resistance and disrupting the flow of profit and power to the rich and the republicans will only be an available resource for a short while, just until the republicans manage to fully disenfranchise the vast majority of Americans from all their constitutionally guaranteed rights, the vote, being their highest priority. Best way to do that, get as many Americans as possible to become felons, then of course the changing the voting laws and then find new ways to discourage people from exercising what few remaining rights they may have left until they can legislate those away too. For those who can't see it, civil war is fast approaching. The Rich have been trying to recreate the Feudal system for many years, almost since this nations inception. They wish to create a TWO party class system, the Lords and Ladies, and the serfs. Take a guess as to who they see as being their serfs. Anyways, I've ranted enough for now. We are the 99% and we have the power of justice as our guide.
