Was listening to talk radio this morning and congressman charlie rangel should be there shortly so please be there and talk to him clearly and concise. I'm assuming he'll be there by 10 am your time.

don't forget rangel is part of the 1% and one of the 1% that can't seem to manage to pay his taxes, even when he is in charge of tax law.

Get some clarity, fast. This is about economic equality, about being able to earn minimum wage full time and put yourself through college while living on your own without ever taking on debt. It is about adequate representation for the taxation we endure, and about a fair money system that doesn't reward extortion, treason, unethical business and barbarism.

Not sure wtf you're talking about. You're not going to get your word out if you dont speak to the media

The media is infected by moneyed opinion that governs the output to the masses. It is ineffective.

You're never going to make change in the government without support from the (Right) people in government. You need to make some of the right allies, look into certain politicians policies for instance Charlie Rangel and know who to make allies and who to make enemies. You want finance reform. Just bitching and moaning and protesting is only the first step you need to make the right allies as well. You dont win a war alone

Who said this was a war? I think you are overreacting. This is a motion to depose corruption and extortion from our way of life, little more. As for allies, there are plenty of us.

As to your edit, if I was interested in corruption and nepotism, cronyism and bribery, extortion and political lawlessness and was willing to "find the 'right' allies" in politics, I wouldn't be here concerned for the well being of everyday citizens. I have almost completely lost faith in our current governing personnel and will not trust their definitively corrupt behavior, even when slightly modified to appease the masses. They are still easily bought and sold, manipulated and hoodwinked.

We need people in office who are inflexible and willing to put a man to death in public for treason (lobbyism) before taking a bribe.
