Danny observed as people came out clean
about their lives.
Their stories were not in stark
contrast with what his parents said-but they were not parasites of
the society.
They had been workers, had paid taxes
in their good days-then the recession had hit.
The system had failed them-it lured
them and then tore them apart.
They lost their job and everything due
to the crunch in the economy that led to a domino effect-everything
was lost.
He left his home and trust fund.
The tear stained faces in that
discussion moved him to find the largest socialist party,within a year.
We live in tough times and dunno who to trust. Great take, Tarusha and sadly, the capitalist system has looted many who toiled hard to build a life.

The depressing tales of recession....the nightmare among nightmares!
ReplyDeleteThe end of the wonderful post is a ray of hope, a socialist party. Hope he succeeds.

I feel that it is a better world for corporations than people.
Let us just see how things pan out for each of us:)
