Occupy movement

o     I’d like  to discuss the Occupy movement. Now I’ll be first to admit that I don’t really know too much about this movement but judging from what I have read about the current topic and researching the background, it really feels like a significant action going on in the world. According to the news, “Occupy” has gone to over 82 countries. This must be what it felt like to live in the time of the Civil Rights Movement. Whether this movement will have that same impact is unlikely but it’s similar in way that we’re living in a time where so many people are fighting for a change. 95 cities across 82 countries is a lot. My understanding of the Occupy movement, particularly in the United States, is that the lower class people are fighting to stay equal with the upper class. What I’ve researched seems that the people in the movement feel the small percentage of the American people, which is the upper class, gets to control everything and “Occupy” wants to set things straight. It’s sort of like Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. In the end I do hope this works out for the best for everyone. But I'll leave you with a question...should the 'upper class', the ones who have worked extremely hard and achieved trememdous goals, be punished for their accomplishments? Just a thought.
