Web Log Purpose

A web log based on the principle that a civilized society deserves democratic government based on integrity. The premise here is the U.S. democracy has effectively been subverted by oligarchical forces which must be opposed with facts and rational thought. (An RSS feed is recommended.)

New York Police Try Their Hand at Sanitation Jobs

Laughably, the New York police are reported to have taken up brooms and dust pans in an effort to become pretend santitation workers.

In a series of over-night reports protestors in Union Square, New York have chronicled the attempt on the part of New York police to enforce a curfew, the first in the history of Union Square -- which was opened in 1882 -- reports "Occupy Wall Street dot org."

Last night on our local PBS station John Reed, the former CEO of City Bank, told of his sympathy for the Occupy movement as he expressed regret over the actions of Citi Group in the 2000's.

The world is coming to the idea that godless capitalism is no good for the people of this earth. Now, many are ready to risk life and limb to oppose the increasingly oppressive tactics of those who would attempt to extend the life of the profit system.

I am reminded of the old labor song, "Which Side Are You On"? It is time for everyone, including you, Dear Reader, to decide. Will it be unlimited greed for the few, or justice for all?
