If is hilarious to see people in North America Protest. Especially Canada, where UN-employment is still single digits. Other places in the world, yeah... They have a valid reason to be angry, but then that's what happens to countries with little resources, and minimal exports.


Thank you!


Out of the millions of angry upset people, only a small percentage of them are there for a valid reason, the rest are looking for attention.

To many of us working class people, we look at it like a bunch of people that are taking the easy way out by complaining to government. How about actually doing good in your community?

And whats with this latest generation expecting everything to be handed to them? Yeah, ok, so some of you have a University degree, but did you ever stop to realize that your degree isn't worth anything when you have a few million other people with the exact same piece of paper? no, you didn't. Stop complaining to the government or corporations.

I actually heard some student complain about how University should be free. YEAH, GOOD LUCK! It can never be free. This is what separates classes of people so we are not all poor. Education is power, and the people teaching it don't work for free.

I work in the Trades, and there is plenty of work to be had. Even in the slow times.

I'm not for or against any type of government, but these protests are just a bunch of misguided people angry and venting when they should be building a better tomorrow. Create Change, don't expect government to do anything about it.

A lot of people killed themselves in the 30's because they couldn't handle the pressure or find a way out... maybe some more 'thinning of the herd' needs to happen.



Yeah that is great, but have you seen some of these people at the protests? It's a great idea when someone actually has a plan, not a bunch of weed.

Truth is the US started selling itself out in the 70's when it started closing down factories. Companies got bigger, and started shifting to overseas manufacturing. Then in the 80's, people really caught onto the electronics and goodies they could buy, but the corporations can't turn a profit on union labor, so that leads us to now, where your great American Ideas are now being built in another country, thus CEO's and Factores take all the money.

Many of you called Steve Jobs a Hero. The Ipod may have been designed here, but it was built overseas. Steve Jobs, and others like him are the problem for taking advantage of us, the consumer. They basically sold out the country much like Indians sold land for Blankets and Wiskey. Our generation needed to have its Ipods, computers, and trinkets. And China was glad to have children make it for us. This is why China has a growing middle class, and the US has a shrinking middle class.


Edit: i'm still writing. I have a solution

The Solution
Attitude Change, and a few laws need to 'go away'.


Example
Laws and Regulations have killed small business. Example, It costs about 1.5 billion dollars for any new car to come to market. This is stupid. There is no reason why cars need 10 airbags, a certain number of crumple zones, special emission standards (while heavy industry had none, or little). Certain laws and regulations are so strict, its impossible for the little guy to enter a market and compete for a percentage of a business, thus leaving major Auto Companies total control of the direction of the automobile market. On top of this, Unions limit the profit margin. Within Globalization, profit margin is very important, being the rest of the world does not have the same Luxury Union benefits. Thus, Unions need to be phased out. Especially considering labor laws already protect workers as long as they are doing the job correctly. Solution: eliminate bogus safety laws for consumer products, and kill off a few unions. I bet there is a lot of people in Detroit that would come back to work at half of what they were making right now, non union.

Example 2
How is it that an Oil Company owns the legal rights to run Lithium Ion batteries in an Automobile? Copyright and Patent Laws are bogus and broken anyways. Eliminate them, but tax foreign importers of similar products. AKA, outsiders to the country should be taxed if they want to enter 'our' market. Get some money back to the people, and provide some protection to home based business. And for Pete's sake, get rid of the lawyers out there that are limiting growth to protect a companies bogus copyright/patent.

Example 3
Maybe I shouldn't sue McDonalds when I spill my coffee. There is far too many people going to court over the stupidest things. A few months back some guy was telling me how his brother was killed driving his Lancer. His parents are taking Mitsubishi to court saying he thought he was driving a Rally Car, and its false advertisement on the part of Mitsubishi. things like this should never go to court Companies shouldn't need to spend millions of dollars to lawyers to protect themselves against stupid people. When this happens, the costs filter down to the consumer, aka, you and I. (I also believe major flaws with Toyota should have never gone to court either. Driver eduction should have been improved instead, this leads me to example 4)

Example 4
Education. Its important to realize that education is very important, only if it gets you something in return. If you have a few degrees, but are living on Government Cheese, that's ok as long as you are happy. Students should never 'expect' a job waiting for them in any field, but rather be self motivated to find or create opportunity. The Government and Law shouldn't limit them either. What I mean by this is; it is great to have a dream, get educated, but make sure you never stay static. Be interested and engaged in different fields, and if you seek employment after school, make sure you are prepared to move, find, or create it. Never Expect it to be there for you. Business is ever changing. Also, work hard. As the world gets smaller, your competitors get closer.

When I was a kid, we had no Internet. Now its a major utopia of knowledge, with many people offering free education through places such as youtube. Yet more people watch some soldier yelling at the police (and I'm sure some of those officers served too) and comment about how bad things are. Part of this 'attitude change' needs to come from us. We need to stop feeding into mass hysteria, and start being more motivated to learn, create, and build. Not complain and comment or waste excessive time in leisure activities.

Things are not all that bad, but yes, they can be better. Compare yourself with a child I sponsor in Ethiopia whom use to use her families human waste to fertilize the garden so they could eat on a weekly basis (not daily). You really don't have it bad at all, but yes, we can all use some change, but this time, lets not change to protect the lazy and stupid people. Rid of some bogus laws, unions and lawyers. Allow the Creativity of people bring some new breath to the country that use to make everything.
