For several years now, I have wanted to encourage young people to take to the streets and demand changes to the power structure of our governments. This movement is long over due.
\nThe Canadian government charges interest on a student loan to a man with mental illness…….students are burdened with massive debt trying to get an education.
\nWe need great changes and it will come because students today will change it.
\nHow much longer did our governments think they could squeeze and cheat the average citizen before we would have rioting on our streets? Hundreds of thousands of people’s voices were completely ignore and ridiculed when they said “no” to war in Iraq for example. Our governments went to war anyway. (To their credit,The Canadian government didn’t go to war on Iraq, but then felt obligated to go to war in Afghanistan in order to secure lucrative trade deals with America for their rich friends.)
\nThey ran up trillions of dollars in debt to service these wars and then told the same people who said no to war to pay for it. Our political leaders and their rich banker friends made fortunes robbing peoples retirement funds, savings accounts, using quantitive easing, derivatives and other non sensical tricks to rob people blind.
\nIt has been estimated that it is going to cost the America people at least a trillion dollars alone just to look after the young soldiers returning with multiple limbs missing and half their brains missing. What a waste of resources. That money comes from you.
\nAnd our governments still don’t know why the people are on the streets. Neither does the main media who sat and supported the wars and the guaranteed slaughter.
\nThe young people are now demanding change. They are demanding to be heard. And I say all the power to them as they start to take on the challenge of building a new world order…one without corruption and greed.
\nI love to see them out there in the streets.
\nThe next step is for them to come out with the same fury when the time comes to “Vote”.
\nThis is what will change their world. The politicians who are in power now…..were voted in.
\nThese are the politicians who took you to war.These are the people spending your money on billion dollar fighter jets. (Peter MacKay for example)
\nSo why reward them with your vote?
\nChange the world…..you have the power! Grab it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
