When I think about Occupy walls street and now all the cities nationwide and worldwide that this movement now has spread to I wonder how many people would support this slogan? "Jobs or Revolution Worldwide"? So, as a long time practical adult I know this isn't a useful point of view at this point in time. However, a useful point of view and strategy in the western world at least in developed countries might be "Jobs or food, shelter, clothes and the ability to marry and the forgiveness of student loans so we don't go bankrupt at 22 or 25 or world wide Revolution" might actually be a useful slogan (if condensed) in the western developed world at least.
When I think about the words the demonstrators used "Occupy Wall Street" it doesn't sound exactly peaceful. But I think this name was used to make people take them more seriously. Obviously, the whole world did because of what happened last Saturday and what is going on in all major cities not only in the U.S. but now abroad. It is definitely true. The banks were bailed out with the people's money and now they want it back. Otherwise I'm not exactly sure what is going to happen next. However, situations like this don't often resolve themselves overnight. It could take 10 to 20 years to create a useful solution for enough people worldwide for this kind of demonstration just to end in the U.S. let alone around the world. So, don't hold your breath. However, it is true every one's needs must be met for at least food and shelter. If not, this is going to get very very nasty worldwide. I don't see jobs coming back any time soon in most of the western world so some kind of other type of solution must be found other than jobs at least for now.
