If they are only considering the benefit of themselves, they will fail.
The only way of making a better society is by improving people's spiritual awareness.
It is never the problem of capitalism or socialism. It is only the problem of the MIND of the governer and the citizens... they are all just considering maximizing their own benefits....
Actually, I would say, not only the 99%, but the 100%, will all fail and corrupt... even together will our earth!!!!
I am used to live low budget. What can I loose? Nothing. 99ers have nothing to loose. 1 Percenters much!
I can understand it. but to achieve your goal, the only should be change the mind of the richer, or else, you may have to fight with guns... however, after many years' evolution, the same inequality will occur again.... because there will always be selfish elits that can earn more than the 99%....so, the revolution is not thorough... a only way out of it might be replacing politicain with spiritual leader and improving continuously all citizens' spriritual awareness...so as to reduce corruptions and deprivations...
In a word, our society is sick, not constitutionally or intelligently, but morally...
How do you know "they are all just considering maximizing their own benefits?" You can't make an assumption like that... You don't know everyone personally to know what their intentions are. Inform yourself about what "the 99%" means... You are part of the 99% yourself, unless you are one of the ultra-rich 1% that holds 99% or the U.S.'s wealth...
neither, I am a disciplinant, a detached person that is almost out of any society....you tend to stick to statistics, but ignored the most important argument I was making...this is not good....language is always flaw, and so don't stick too much to them....though, you have a good critical thought, which is of little sense when dealing with human emotions that are very common among all...
To all the citizens on the Earth: We should be united. We should all be benevolent and selfless, should advocate virtue and high spiritual pursuit. We should make the global enlightment and the global material and spiritual freedom our common goal and struggle for it whole-heartedly.
To the government and the capitalists: you are elits and were granted the capital and power based on our trust on you. However you abuse your wisdom for gathering your own wealth; you abuse your power and military force for maintaining your governing. So, you have no right anymore to control the capital and materials, and to lead the army. You should either whole-heartedly serve the people, or give up and let those who have a higher wisdom as well as mercy to lead us and control the capital.
I don't think failure is possible.
The awareness of the crisis cannot be subsided once people have experienced it directly
Many people who have lived comfortably throughout the past decades have now experienced it first hand.
Spiritual awareness through the compassion and acknowledgement of suffering caused by the corruption in our political economic system is something I believe to be on the rise.
I feel as though you might be going through some strong emotions, as you say that the earth and all the people will fail!, but I implore you not to despair.
The perpetuation of this system in it's current form cannot persist and people all around the world are experiencing this realization.
are you by any chance a jehovah's witness?
More than that....
Dominionist.
Technology is the impetus for the dawning of the new era. For the first time all of humanity can instantaneously communicate on a global scale. We can control our birth rate with the use of safe effective birth control. We have the resources to feed and house the world’s population. Most all human suffering is manmade or worsened by greed and lack of empathy. Technology has also given us the ability choose our destiny. We can continue the current trajectory: depletion of resources, growing inequalities and war. Or, we can choose a new way.
The path to enlightenment, equality, and sustenance is attainable with a united movement. Part of that movement is time bank. Time bank is a network of humanity. Organized on line. Completely transparent. All inclusive. Hour in. Hour out. That’s it. No person’s hour is more or less valuable than another.
A worldwide time bank can be started now. With enough participation it can catalyze the transition from the current corrupt monetary system to a society where money is irrelevant and each person is valued. Fear and greed will paralyze this movement. Hope and imagination can propel it.
Time is the Substance from which I am made. – Jorge Luis Borges
yes, I feel it should be a movement of global enlightenment, rather than purely for economic or political improvement....
I would guess then that you believe in prosperity CS, right? Typical cop-out by someone who does not want to get involved. Suggest you read about Gandhi and MLK. Political and civil movements are necessary unless you live in Fairy Tale World. Most people who talk like you are secure, do not want to get involved and are selfish. It's called spiritual materialism. The ultimate in real spirituality is helping others. That's the key. Suggest you try once again to get spiritual. Yours is a cop-out, pure and simple.
I advocate the concept of Buddhism. People should not be greedy and selfish, but take others' benefits as if our own, and take the benefits of all people as a whole. no bias, no difference. we are all ONE...
End the Federal Reserve Board.
Hold a recall election with campaign finance reform.
Enforce a limit to lobbying campaigns
Develop a sustainable economy.
Human beings are not inherently greedy.
Human beings are a product of their environment.
Human beings reflect their environment.
The human race is suffering from a value system disorder.
We, as a society cannot seem to denote wrong from right.
This must change.
The world must evolve.
The government must evolve.
The economic system must evolve.
Peace, Love, and Unity.
maybe you should read the book of Isaiah. I think greed is the wrong road. Socialism isn't the question, Plutocracy is! ... it is wrong
yes...you are totally correct...

True, spiritual awareness is needed, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 10% Management Group of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategic Legal Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

history has told us enough that rationality is not always effective...human beings is human because they are all emotional...only a leader who can grasp the heart of the people will be respected and trusted...a spiritual leader with wisdom is more likely to do a better job than a pure politician with a wise mind...
useless...it cannot be solved by stratagies... we will choose a real leader, who is of wisdom and compassion...who can stand for all the human beings....who are also a spiritual leader not a politician...
history has told us enough lessons... a politician can nerver make a society of equality.... we only need a spiritual leader, that's all.....
I love you, but obviously no one has taught you to READ and THINK critically BEFORE you reply LOGICALLY, not EMOTIONALLY. Besides, any leader you choose will die eventually, so who will be there to carry on the STRATEGY then -- YOU WILL!
Besides, even people do not have such emotion, we can create it with our influence power.....
we are simply not trusting another but wiser Obama...
This emotion is not mine, but many citizens', and I just convey it to you here...
You see, if we all forget about our nationality and race, we can talk like brothers and sisters, we are all earth citizens, we can communicate, can respect and understand each other...
If we all fight for the benefits of all the human beings cooperatively, If we are all merciful enough, there would be no deprival, no suppression, no discrimination, no inequality and no wars....
Thus, no other way can actually bring about a real better world, we have no other choice but choosing the toughest----promoting the enlightenment of all the human beings...Really...
absolutely.
Millions of people around world are suffering.
Those of us who are compassionate and intelligent cannot be content to sit idly by while there is enough resources on this planet to help and heal everybody.
