The economic collapse hardened our hearts about fairness in America... Financial institutions may hear the outcry and make some positive changes.

Their outrage at Wall Street bailouts and corruption is justified, but the increasing violence and rioting is not.

The way to make a difference is to send a message to Congress by voting for a candidate that will represent your views and make changes.

I’ll refer to the words of President Abraham Lincoln (Sept 30, 1859), “And this, too, shall pass away.” How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! — how consoling in the depths of affliction! “And this, too, shall pass away.”

I believe the movement is a direct result of the American people’s frustration with our government representatives who seem to be more interested in playing schoolyard bullying games than in providing true leadership for our country.

The Occupy Wall Street movement and the various offshoots cropping up around the country are the result of a do-nothing Congress — remember the ballot box.
