Forum Post: Why Occupy? A government, history teacher explains (Article & Podcast)

"James Fetzer interviewed Carl Herman on his radio show and podcast, 'The Real Deal', to walk Americans through the central arguments of Occupy:

• The 1% “leadership” in politics, banking, and corporate media commit crimes centering in war and money, and then lie about them;

• These crimes annually kill millions, harm billions, and loot trillions of the 99%’s dollars. The appropriate response is arrest of those committing the most egregious crimes a nation can commit;

• The arrest of the war-murdering, looting, and lying criminals opens unprecedented opportunity for policies to uplift all Earth’s inhabitants."
