To those who march, let me first state that I am all for freedom of speech and expression. However, I do not have to support the viewpoint.
Last week began a "grass roots" movement of 1,000 different viewpoints called the "99 percent" who decided to march on Wall Street and demand equality of life through economic policy.
Many have blamed Wall Street executives and banking officials for the economic struggles this country is in. Others have blamed D.C. and corrupt policy brought forth by the likes of Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, President Obama and the last administration.
It is evident that people from Wall Street had a hand in the demise of the housing market. It's also evident that several politicians "banked" on their own policy-driven tactics.
Here's some advice to those who support this movement: make sure you educate yourselves before trashing this country. Choosing one side in a two sided affair is idiotic.
Capitalism isn't the problem--bad people are!
