"Ten years ago Occupy Wall Street introduced us to the 1%. Prior to Occupy, no mainstream legislator in Washington dared to criticize capitalism's thorough corruption of our politics, the obscene wealth gap, the laws designed by corporations, the billionaires evading taxes, and the revolving door that keeps the 1% in charge. All that changed with Occupy." from Inequality.org
While the conversation may have changed, unfortunately we have a long way to go to undo the 40+ years of neoliberalism, which has resulted in runaway inequality and the failure to address the multiple crises our country and the world face.
Is it time to Occupy Washington?
