Our seeming democracy
Keep seeing this misunderstanding. The Occupy movement isn’t anti-corporation or anti-capitalism. It’s anti plutocracy. An attempt to wrestle the institution of government back from just the few with the means to buy it. It all comes down to campaign finance reform, seems to me – the only remedy I can think of to get politicians to (maybe) answer to the people they represent and not to whoever will pay for their campaigns (in exchange for legislation that favors them at the expense of the rest of us). The current system leads to disastrous results for everyone… as we keep not learning.
