The problem is the same: A tiny global elite of sociopaths trying to manipulate and subjugate people. Having bought off the political class, making them implement policies specifically designed to destroy the middle class and plunge the populace into serfdom.
Once this happens, the only way to put a stop to it is by fully engaging in the political process--and by taking to the streets. In Israel, 1 million people today. In Spain there have been several occupation-style protests with hundreds of thousands of people. There will be another one on September 7th. There have been several protests in England, in Greece, in Chile, and many other countries. There is a new awakening by people around the world that are coming to understand that corporatist globalization means enslavement for the populace.
In the U.S. that awakening is starting to happen, with a planned protest of occupation at Wall Street on September 17th, and one starting in Washington, D.C. on October 6th.
Share your opinion as to why you think that after a massive looting by Wall Street crooks plunged the country into an economic depression, and after a cover up by government officials, the U.S. population remains relatively (and eerily) docile.
Watch this video of one protest in Spain, and notice the passion of the people... It's very inspirational.
