US Senator Bernard Sanders: Overthrow the Oligarchs

Thanks to Christopher

US Senator Bernard Sanders gave an impassioned plea this week in which he stated clearly why the American people are angry.

As he defended the poor teachers, firefighters, construction workers and others who now find themselves without jobs and mired in debt, he savaged “the greed, recklessness and illegal behavior of the people on Wall Street” for causing it all.

He also demanded the removal of “the handful of billionaires who control the nation’s economic and political life”.

The Senator’s words apply equally to all us ’99 per centers’ – on a worldwide basis – and it is heartening to know these anti-oligarch messages are being strongly relayed more and more in the halls of power right across the globe.
