OWS
People don't get it.
It's not about the money.
It's about LIES.
It's about intregity.
It's about trust.
We beleived that the banks were going under, through their own fault mind you, but still... it would impact us all negatively.
So we allowed the governement to bail them out.
The thought behind it was that if the government GAVE them money the banks would use it as they were supposed to - lending it to people who needed to borrow it to create jobs.
But that's not how it went.
The banks took the money - paid themselves - and sat on the rest because theyw ere afraid to take a risk.
So they got rich and we got nothing.
THAT is what OWS is about.
Lack of moral fiber and intregity.
