The Poor have every right to complain, if the "system" is not updated

I find that almost everyone feels a bit pinch with $$$.

I read a lot of news, and i also see both sides. I do agree that the "system" benefits the rich, but does this mean i hate the rich? No, because everyone wants to be one. The problem is when i look again at the whole thing, it is that the "system" has been improvise over the years to improve the rich and i would say the improvement is drastic but the "system" don't improve/update the normal people resources to live life to it's adequate needs.

It's kind of an Iphone OS thing where your phone is fucked up because you never update it. I am sure there are people who just hate governments and there are government ministers who just there because of papers and salaries.

This are genuine concerns not just in Asia, but in America, everywhere as well.

I think your right, Zac.

The problem, in my opinion, isn't really money per se, but the way that pure capitalism works. I actually think that the whole work/reward system that the western world operates under is quite effective and in reality is as fair a strategy to proliferate our species understanding on health, technology and the universe whilst maintaining a good balance between the worker being rewarded for his time as you can get. Is essence, work/reward is a very fair and morally agreeable way of doing things, its effective.

The problem is that our work/reward system is corrupted by the way that we perceive and exercise capitalism. If only our politicians weren't old fossils stuck in their right ways and could see that, actually we don't need a massive overhaul, only new ideas for the way that capitalism should operate. Or if that doesn't work, remove capitalism and issue a new form of exchange, starting from scratch so that we can develop, manipulate and maintain the system from its roots enabling it to grow into a way of operating that:

Treats everybody as equals, giving everybody an equal opportunity to create wealth, as opposed to the way things work today whereby - if your wealthy you would have to be a pretty big dipshit not to create more wealth, but if your poor & indebted either because of upbringing or other external circumstances, saving a fuck large slice of luck your probably fucked - and so are your kids. Pure capitalism and the way it works is the reason the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor. It is inherently an immoral, unfair and outdated system, very advantageous to few.

It also stops us from acting globally and ensures separation from other countries is maintained due of our obsession over resource costs and currency deficits etc, which ensure we stay fixated on local issues, rather than using our technology, intelligence and resources to aid in the worlds growth and development. You know how many homeless people there are in the USA, or how many starving children there are in Africa? Fixing these issues is not a resource problem or even a human one, (I believe we all care about these issues) but a political one linked largely to pure capitalism which exacerbates the situation and eventually kills any likelihood of worldwide or many times even local action being taken.

Not saying capitalism is the only thing stopping us from coming together, don't get me started on religion! But, it would be nice to see us moving forward in a positive direction, which I am not really sure is happening.

I am not from the US, but i am well aware that the US citizens are losing a lot of jobs at the moment. I am surprised that many people are losing homes as well. Africa is another one. I think that's why Bill Gates is currently attending to Africa and investing in vaccine research for them. Lots of millionaires today are doing their own organizations to help this poor people, knowing that the Government (which is actually individuals, just as society) have their own personal glory quest. IT's petty, and sometimes saddening, but everyone has to survive.
