The "Occupy" Movement



Christopher Penn's profile photoChristopher Penn originally shared this with me:
It's Tuesday. Watching with bemusement at all of the Occupy [Insert City Here] protests. Update, guys: the 1% have ALWAYS controlled the majority of wealth and power. The only thing that changes over the millennia is who is in the 1% list and how subject it is to change. Today they're the wealthy. Previously, they were the kings, the pharaohs, the emperors, the church leaders. Protesting that that they have all the money and power is like protesting that the sun rises in the east. Idea: why don't you instead build something and join the 1% yourself? Steve Jobs did. Mark Zuckerberg did. Bill Gates did. Hell, even Snooki did. If Snooki can do it, surely you can too.

Keep the faith.  Support and Celebrate every day greatness and brilliance.  Don't forget to love.

Until next time...
