I’ve been hearing dribs and drabs about the Wall Street (and now other places) protests about the 1% controlling the 99% and corporate interest trumping the people. I say dribs and drabs as there’s very little coverage in the mainstream media, over here anyway. Long may the protests continue – others may be cynical but if you gather enough people, like in Egypt or million marches through history they won’t be able to ignore you…and the lesson from such things as the massive anti-war march in 2003 and Tahrir Square is keep the pressure on and don’t stop. Even when they say you’ve won, because as The Who cynically said in ‘Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?’ style:
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Don’t get fooled again
