It is a possibility, Lt. John Pike, the Pepper Spraying Policeman at the UC Davis Occupy Protest may be out of a job. No stranger to problems, this is not the first incident Lt. Pike has been involved in. He has a few previous marks on his record. In his defense, Officer Pike is an ex-Marine. He has my respect in that department.

What happens now if Officer Pike finds himself as Mr. Pike, unemployed because UC Davis can not afford him any more? A few weeks of unemployment and then what? Does he join the Occupy Protesters that he maced a few weeks earlier?

Earlier in the week, American Banks found themselves a little short on the America portion of their name. A four page memo was  found outlined how the Occupy movement should be handled, e.g., in the manner of a political opponent, rather than a movement of frustrated people.  You can read about it here.

Maybe this is a start for American business starting with affiliates of the Banking Industry and the Police Forces across our country to start looking towards their fellow Americans, instead of trying to defeat them and push them back into silence.

Here is the root of the Occupy Wall Street protest in case you are unaware. I find it shameful that a few people with so much want even more. It hurts way down deep to know to these already very wealthy people  money is more important than the land they live in and the people in it.  Money is so important to them  they are willing to ruin America for a few dollars more.

If you are over fifty, poverty may be in your future. If you are under fifty, you may already be enjoying a life of poverty. The average American no longer has the cash  to shop our way out of our problems. I think we are in for some tough times while we work out our problems.  On the bright side some food banks had record donations this month, though most donations were Turkey free.  Nothing wrong with a Turkey less Thanksgiving Dinner I suppose. I have had a few myself in years past.

My thanks and gratitude to all of you who made it possible for hungry families to have food on their table this month, Turkey Dinner or not. Let’s develop our EcoHeart together and do what we can to help each other, and get our country, and the world back on to a better future for those coming after us.
