As above, I can't tell you what this is supposed to mean to you. That is the biggest problem I had following the movement down south.
And to tell you the truth, I can't blame it on the banks. As a senior and smart poster said here, 'you can't blame the lions, if you didn't close the cage.'
But we need to tell the politicians we are aware of the lobbies. Their deals to get elected. The loopholes they give corporations. The backroom dealings for campaign funds in the guise of democracy.
This can mean whatever you want to you. But it's about being aware of the system that you pay into, vote for, and are a part of. It's about being aware of eroding democracy. It's about decreasing budgets for education and health, while tax breaks go to corporations. It's about being aware of the increasing gap between the mega rich and you.
