Time Magazine puts a lot of work and analysis into their choice of “person of the Year.” Sometimes I agree with them, sometimes not. This time I think they nailed it. They chose “The Protester”. And their reasons are clearly expressed: nothing has impacted American society and politics more than the the protest movement as a whole.
People are not just unhappy, they are enraged, and it is that anger that was tapped by these movements that drew support across party and ideological lines. One of the things people agree on regardless of their philosophy or party is that the Banks created this mess and the Government has failed to hold them to account. Another is that we MUST get money out of politics. It is what John Dean, White House Counsel, described to President Nixon about the Watergate cover-up — a cancer that keeps growing and is engulfing the entire system.
Beyond that, people are angry because they know they can’t believe what they are told by their elected officials or what is reported in the press. They know the Banks are controlling nearly everything. Behind every rock of discontent there is some sort of exotic bank financing involved which ultimate leverages off the the taxpayer funds that Federal, State and local governments hold.
My hope and ream is that “the Protester” will keep up the good work and force the changes that our government, as currently constituted, is empowered and obligated to make under our Constitution. My advice is to go read the constitution. It is short, but to the point. Take a close look at the Bill of Rights which “guaranteed” that what is happening in foreclosures, credit cards and student loans, could never happen. That is the ultimate law — those items expressly enumerated in our our Constitution. We either follow it or we are not the Republic that we thought we were. And if we fail to “keep it” as Benjamin Franklin said, it is our own fault.
