I think the point that should be taken from this is that: after stealing trillions of dollars and shifting the debt caused by private companies onto the public working class - through either increased taxation or massive-spending cuts, only a few people were willing to stand together to demonstrate that they feel there is something wrong.
Of those few people, they were clearly threatened with violence, and made to feel fearful. This should be a warning to all of us.
The fact of the matter is that the attack on poor people will only continue, and the situation is only going to get worse. The rights (pensions, holidays, benefits, etc) that our parents' had, will be stripped from us, those rights that took decades to fight for.
The coming years will only strengthen the attack from the ruling elite upon the majority of society. If the workers of society do not band together, and display their solidarity, they will be defeated again and again. Currently, as this demonstration shows - without solid LEADERSHIP the majority are powerless against corruption and oppression.
There has been a fantastic campaign of brainwashing against different sections of workers - non-union vs union and employed vs unemployed. It's a brilliant tactic at dividing people against each other. The fact of the matter is that workers have to stand together. When a union loses its vacation-pay, many non-union members don't realize that it is a loss for all of society. As capitalism continues us toward a race-to-the-bottom we have to remember that the root cause of society's uneven wealth and disparity is not because a few people on welfare are costing millions of dollars, rather that a system is in place that allows for a few people to control trillions, (re: the totality of operations in society) and here's the crux: not for the good of society, but only to make more.
Incoming personal attacks.
