When the 1%er came out to talk to you guys, you guys didn't have good rebuttals. what happened guys, you guys are out there studying and he asks, what do you want specifically? You don't have an answer? Why make us look bad in the spotlight. You know that answer, tell them you want election reform. When he asks you what you want specifically say, when your company isn't turning a profit, you shouldn't be getting a bonus at the same time laying off people. come on guys!

Everyone there write down a list 10 things you would change if you could. Compare them to each other, have conversations and sell your points. Then vote on the top 3.

News cycles are short, they won't want to discuss more than 3 points.

Blaming the 1% is not going to get anyone anywhere, you have to do some research and find out what enabled them to become the 1%. What laws that got approved to help them up the ladder and did they buy any politician to increase their chances?

I get what we want, but essentially people are there learning and studying, so please try unify responses. Take your newsletters and write notes on the back and refer to them when someone calls you out like that.

I don't think we need a leader, so much as we need a few laid out goals. Without objectives we're equivalent to a bunch of turkeys running around with their heads chopped off.

We want the money completely out of politics. That means public funded campaigns.

We want universal healthcare

We want the Government to buy back ALL of the current student loan debt and freeze it until unemployment goes under 5%.

We want to not be yelled at for pointing our video cameras and cell phones while recording cops beating people up.

We want the EPA to clean up ALL of the waterways in the US.

We don't want corporations being allowed to shit all over our American dreams just to make an extra billion or two.

What do you expect when the ideal is chaos, anarchy, and hedonism. PS, have the drummers stopped yet?

If everyone is saying not to answer then don't answer in solidarity.
