The Financial Revolution
The current state of economic affairs is mismanaged, declining, and unnecessarily unfair. Our mission is to raise awareness and invoke change.

The richest 10% hold 85% of the world’s assets. Even more disturbing, 50% of the population control only 1% of global wealth.
Life isn’t fair, it’s fixed.
We begin on an uneven playing field in a system designed to prevent social equality. The 21st century will be marked by a period of social immobility.
Think of your life as a game of Monopoly for just a moment. Each player starts off with the same resources in the same position. The outcome of the game is a product of the choices each player makes along the way (and the roll of the dice, of course).
Now, imagine you started the game while nearly all the properties have been purchased. Some have houses and others, hotels. Your peers have resources ranging from 2–100 times your starting capital. You consider yourself lucky just to make it around the board and collect your $200. The best case scenario would be to purchase whatever measly parcel of lands you can afford, Baltic Avenue for example. The odds are simply stacked against you. The game was designed in such a way that you cannot win. You aren’t meant to win. You may only scratch and claw your way around the board, desperate to reach GO. The paltry income you receive is only enough to keep you engaged. It allows you to continue playing, but only to perpetuate the system of socioeconomic immobility. As the game continues you realize that you’re efforts are futile. To play the game, to have any chance at winning, you have to compete. Otherwise, your entire existence is predicated on collecting only enough income to survive. You pay the other players for passage only to repeat the dreadful cycle.
The rigid dichotomy between social classes has reached an extraordinary climax. This class schism occurs at a time in which an individual’s social mobility stagnates. Social immobility, combined with a downward pressure on the lower classes, has effectively eroded much of the middle class. There were three distinct classes in which people could be categorized in terms of their socioeconomic status. Now there remain only two classes. Socioeconomic systems in progressive nations generally take the shape of a two-dimensional diamond, similar to what’s found on a playing card. There are a small percentage of extremely rich at the top and a small percentage of extremely poor at the bottom. The bulk of society can be found somewhere in the middle. A system such as this provides for reasonable social mobility.
The economic class system in the United States is much different. It is shaped like an hour glass. There are a great deal of wealthy people at the top and a great deal of poorer people at the bottom. The middle class is very sparse. In essence, this leaves the country with two very different groups of people. Those who have, and those who have little.
