Kirogata, there are a lot of things wrong with your post. But I would like to focus on one. You are correct in stating that we are not a democracy, and that we have never been one. The idea that we are one is a common misconception that people have. However, you indicate that we are still in a type of democracy. Not true. We are, and have always been, a democratic republic. If you actually look at the historical data, that was what we were created as. And we still, technically, fall into that category.
Personally, I think that if they can last through the winter the OWS will do some good. Already they have raised awareness in a lot of people, and they would have raised even more if the media hadn't been purposefully cut out at the beginning. Yes, their agenda is a bit murky, but their overall message is the same. Equality in the system. Something we really don't have right now. It is a fact that the middle class is disappearing, due to the huge gap that is emerging between the rich and the rest in this country. It is also a fact that most minimum wage jobs are incapable of supporting a family, and barely support a single person. It is a fact that a large chunk of this country has declining help as they are unable to pay for any sort of medical expenses, and that those forced to do so in an emergency often risk losing the ability to eat or pay bills. My brother is in that particular boat right now. And it is a fact that, precentage wise, the 1% pays less in taxes than your average U.S. citizen. The system is broken, it needs fixing. But to fix something you first have to acknowledge the problem. OWS is acknowledging the problem so that we as a country can take steps to fix it.
