(Don't miss the best articles & blogs about OWS - HERE at Understanding OWS)
With police raids across the nation breaking up Occupy camps, it is even
more important now to show support for a movement that has given real
working Americans a voice. As one OWS protester posted:
"...You can't kill an idea. You can't keep down a people's hopes and dreams
for a better life. America USED to work. The
people had work. The system worked. Hey, EVEN the Congress used to work
(sometimes). God knows, it was far, far, far from perfect -- but at least
we all had some share in the struggles AND the rewards. But somewhere
along the way, we lost our way. Because now we have an economy and a
political system that seems to work only for the rich. With OWS America
has found it’s voice, and that voice demands fairness and justice - for
ALL."

History behind OWS HERE -- What are people so angry about? What happened to our country? How did the recent dramatic unraveling of America's economy begin? Watch a couple of 5-minute videos on Glass-Steagal and Citizens United to learn some basic recent history that explains how we got here.
