  • @Francesko263 but it is still affected by what basically amounts to legal bribery running rampant in our political system, which is the main focus of the movement.

  • Why do australian young people protest? Australia was one of the few country untouched by the crisis.

  • @VernacularZone I believe you

  • there are policemen who are fair and who feel the same as you about corporate greed and social injustice, politicians who feel the same, businessmen who feel the same, but who are afraid to come out - they should

  • Transport industry - people should board for free, get repairs for free; Health and pharmaceutical industry: people should get treatment and medication for free; Banking industry: people should withdraw all their money from bank accounts and use safe deposit boxes or alternative means of keeping their money safe and let bank moguls see what it's like to be without money; That is what is needed to happen. Street riots won't do much other then prompt governments to enforce more rigid laws.

  • get a clue protesters - do not take to the streets because that does not hurt the wealthy or get the attention of the governments and Bilderbergs! What does hurt them is being unable to continue accumulating their wealth and strengthening their positions and to get there protesters need to continue to work but provide services and products for free. That way protesters continue to be productive and good workers and take justice in own hands by spreading the wealth where is needed - to people!
