Check it out.
People.
People being people.
We have needs. Our needs are not being met. So we are acting to make changes.
Power is the result of needs and abilities.
We all have the need to be in a world where each of us have the chance to thrive and fulfill our dreams.
We need education, medicine, food, water, shelter and protection to thrive.
In an attempt to get rich and have power, our leaders in the government, banks and corporations have made all these things you need available only if you pay for them by working for them at rates that allow them to have record profits. If you won't, then they will take that work to places and people who will.
Your other choice is to borrow. Borrow a lot. Borrow as much as your income will allow you to pay each month. Debt lasts seemingly forever and interest makes a small number of those leaders richer and more powerful.
People have had enough of this.
People have had enough of the people - incompetent and arrogant mismanagers - who would take such a large share of the profit that the banks and corporations need to be bailed out by your tax dollars.
People have had enough of people in government that have neither the courage, nor the integrity, to see this is wrong - to see the ridiculously obvious flaw in this system and to whom the money is going.
People are aware that government is not doing the job it was intended for. Government is there to lead our society. To guide people toward that thriving life. To protect the people from corruption and exploitation.
Government is not there for the purpose of squeezing more tax dollars from them to feed a selfish, narrow-minded, greedy and misguided elite.
But banks, corporations and governments are made up of people who believe in power. They believe it is possible for one person to be more important - more worthy - than another. They are flawed people. They do not understand the inherent error in their thinking.
The truth?
People are one.
People are to be loved in the truest sense.
People are not here to be used by other people to try to have more.
This system could work. If we accepted the truth about our oneness.
It is not the system that has flaws. It is the people in the system that are flawed.
In the end the banks, corporations and governments are people.
And people have needs.
And needs are the source of power.
The people of the banks, corporations and governments need people to shut up, do what they are told and remain powerless.
Today people said we are not powerless.
Today people said we will give you what you need when you give us back what we need.
Today we have a power dynamic.
A beautifully balanced power dynamic that could take us back to living in a land of equality, freedom, peace and the pursuit of happiness.
Unfortunately, people would rather have power.
God bless us all.
