Currently in Egypt a lot of political issues are taking place that the United States became involved in. Just recently thousands of more workers attacked their president and his family's wealth in this country. These working class citizens came from all different jobs all with the same purpose however. This is to get their point across to President Hosni Mubarak and get their way. Their methods are starting to turn violent and unsafe however as they're setting fires and pelting stones at cars of their authorities. The whole idea of this scares me. There are definitely better ways to handle this situation. The Egyptians really seem to be strongly focused on the amount of money their president has at the time. It annoys them once they hear the billions that he is receiving while 40% of their country lives in poverty. It is sad to hear that these Egyptian protestors are still going working hard even after being given a warning by the Vice President. That was a first! They say they will not negotiate until Mubarak steps down. This is going to be going on for quite some time if that is the case! 300 have been killed already, lets hope this number does not increase anymore.
