Why do we have Occupy groups all over the world, and “what do they want?” is asked. Since the world economy and global politics appears to be governed by the policies of an oligarchy of mega companies that are focused more on “corporate strategy than social consequences”, we suspect this is the root of the problem.
Small fixes and single laws will not begin to address the magnitude of this problem. The simple, but very large answer is that the welfare of all human populations and the global environment must be the guiding force in national and global politics. The monopolies that now hold power would like us to believe that it is just jobs or benefits. But as long as mega companies focus on profits above social consequences, the jobs, economy, and environmental problems will continue to be unsolved.
