A bunch of CEO's will be camping out in cardboard boxes to express their empathy for the homeless. While Covenant House is a good organization, and the sentiment is admirable, the whole event just feels so... whitewashy.

I'm thinking this pack of 1%ers might benefit from a dose of reality.

Fight for #1. Keep your Faith in America. Focus on the Greed of a few CEO's. Do Not Broad-Brush. Continue to be Civil, Sanitary, and Orderly. Do Not Let Violence Hijack the Movement. America is gathering around you. Make a List of Demands. Organize a Task Force for each Demand. Get the WORD Out! Ask for Help and Support of Each Demand. Remember, This Is Not About Party- It Is About Uniting Americans Around Good Things. Be Polite to those that disagree with you- This Is All About Winning.
