Gerald McIsaac is a member of the working class, with considerable experience in various industries as an hourly employee. He is also an intellectual with a considerable education and background in various fields of science. He challenges various scientific theories which are accepted by the scientific community, theories which he refers to as fairy tales, which in no way endears himself to the scientists, and as a result of this he is not allowed to earn a living in any field of science. He has currently turned his attention to the occupy movement which is sweeping the world. It is a revolutionary movement and is examined from a scientific viewpoint, which is to say a Marxist perspective. The people who are taking part in this revolutionary movement are doing so spontaneously, not aware that they are making history, not aware that they are part of a revolutionary working class, one that is destined to overthrow the capitalist class, the 1 percent, the class of parasites, the tiny minority which is exploiting and crushing the vast majority of working class people, so that the capitalists can live a life of luxury, at our expense. This must change, but this change can only happen as the working class becomes aware of itself as a class, with interests which are diametrically opposed to those of the capitalists. Once that class awareness is established, then the occupy movement will change into a revolutionary movement with the goal of scientific socialism. By contrast, the capitalists, the 1 percent, are well aware of themselves as a class, and are quite happy to propogate the lie that classes do not exist. This gives them a huge advantage. As far as they are concerned, our ignorance is bliss. After the revolution, and the subsequent establishment of a socialist society, the businesses will be state owned, run by the working class, for the benefit of the vast majority, and not for the profit of the tiny minority. Workers will in turn be paid a fair wage. This socialist state can only happen with the overthrow of the capitalists, the 1 percent, and the subsequent raising of the working class to a position of power, as the dictatorship of the proletariat, in order to crush the desperate and determined resistance of the capitalists, as after the revolution, they will make every effort to regain their '' paradise lost''. It is the purpose of this book to level the playing field, to make the working class aware of itself as a class, aware that it is in the interests of the capitalists to work us as hard as possible while paying us as little as possible, in order to increase their profit, which is to say that our interests are diametrically opposed. Once that awareness is reached, the occupy movement will change from a movement of social and economic reform to a revolutionary movement, with the goal of scientific socialism.
