These headlines are a rude way of America telling us in the Occupy Movement that we have a hell of a long way to go before they are ready to wake up and support a good world. For people to act this over unnecessary material goods is despicable.

In saying this I'm not degrading the act of giving someone a gift or 2 during this time of the year, there is never anything wrong with doing good unto others. Yet, it seems year after year I witness headlines like this...and nothing changes. The companies who do the most harm in the world through bad business practice and resource wasting are also the ones that cause these brawls, injuries, and deaths every year during the holiday season.

It should be a point over the course of the next year for the Occupy Movement to change the way Americans shop. Encourage local buying, encourage local farming, program applications which will assist the lay-person in making smart purchases for their community. Every profession which occupies has a niche purpose they can serve in every aspect of the Occupy Movement, be sure you are creative in whatever you do. We've got one hell of a road ahead of us.
