"Occupy L.A. targets shipping terminal at Port of Long Beach"
Hello, this week I found a very interesting article in the Los Angeles Times published by Kate Linthicum. The article is about protestors going and stopping the shipping terminal to stop the economic flow. These protestor's are angry because of the bailouts that only seemed to help big company's instead of the lower and middle class. They targeted the SSA Marine because its been around during many tough economic time's such as Iraq war and its connection to Goldman Sachs, which is a investor of it. "Occupy L.A. demonstrator Michael Novick said protesters chose SSA Marine because "they embody all the ills of this economic regime we live under", this quote shows they are angry at the economy and want to stop the corruption in the government, and they will continue. I found this article important because it has to do with the economy we live in today, which has a great affect on our life.
