OccupyWallStreet’s Crowdsourced Commercial Spews Same Old Rhetoric

occupy-wall-street.jpg

Occupy Wall Street has been getting a lot of press. Now it’s trying to get its message out to more people with a commercial it’s purchasing through Google TV with crowdsourced funds through LoudSauce. There’s zero said in this commercial that hasn’t already been said a million times before in a million other cause-related political commercials. Basically, the message is the same. Everyone wants more for less. Tax the the rich. Free health care for all. No wars. Blah, blah, blah.

Hey, it’s a noble cause and maybe the work will result in actual change. But call us jaded. We aren’t buying it. As long as there’s money to be made, those making it will bend every last rule to make more no matter who it hurts. It’s really that simple.
