![]() The world economy is in turmoil but while the fat cats still take home their city bonuses and hefty pensions we are the ones suffering, losing our jobs, our homes, and our civil liberties to boot. The current economic system has created an unaccountable political class more interested with the concerns of the millionaires that created this mess than the millions who they are supposed to represent. The current economic crisis is being experienced globally. Nearly half the world live on less than $2 a day and it will be the poorest in our society that have to forgoe the consequences of the ruling classes irresponsibilty. Inequality in our society is ever increasing with the three wealthiest billionaires equalling the wealth of the 600 billion poorest. Eleven trillion dollars in tax is lost each year through the use of tax havens which far outweighs the amount of aid given to the developing world. However, the current crisis is beginning to expose more and more of these shocking inequalities and people are beginning to question the system they have always accepted. |
