Convince the koch brothers to do the right thing? A tyrant believes it's nature itself that put him in power. You will convince him of nothing as long as he remains power in hand.

You're NOT going to convince the people in power to do the right thing, when they've spent decades getting us to this point. Welcome to the NWO!!

people in power are neck deep in their logic,it would take an act of God to them from the darkside.... it was once said how can a guy with one gun 9shots keep a crowd of 40 scared? and not even sure the gun is loaded.thats the one percent over the 99....they have only the power we give.

By not backing down to them. They're bullies and they're used to getting their way. Pick your targets carefully and stand firm. Its your choice of target (the 1%) that has them worried. You folks have gone right to the heart of the matter , no side issues right to the issue of who really has almost all the power and how they got it and keep it. This worries them, because its a challenge they cannot ignore. Be prepared for they're counter attack its coming and they have many resources and methods. You must learn and learn quickly that this is no game you've all embarked upon. You've challenged their legitimacy as the demonstrators in Tienanmen sq. did to the Chinese Gov't 22 yrs. ago.

but the paradox is they got to power by doing the wrong things.

you can't change people - people will always be people. But,
