Economic Crisis - Finding a Way

(07/21/11) They asked: who do we turn to When the politicians no longer care? And the word change is flying in the air. Every country, every island, every nation Is feeling this devastation. Only 10% of the world-are well to do But they’ve forgotten about me and you. 90% of the world population Are the only ones who care But the other 10% their power and wealth They do not want to share. No one wants their countries torn apart They love it - soul and heart. They are tired of being the victims In this unjust world, and it affects Every person- down to our boys and girls. We know the politicians can not help every one in distress But stop lining your pockets Give it a rest. All the public wants is a fair share Give them that - show them you care. If the public was to stop buying For a day or a week The ripple affect would reach its peak. Unfortunately this will affect the small people Who are trying to earn a living. They know this, and that’s the reason They’re not giving. What is the solution to this world crisis I can not say- but billions of minds working together - they can find a way.
