"Hundreds of people gathered Friday at City Hall, the gateway to Texas’ Austin City government on the first day of what they have named “Occupy Austin.” A group of activists called for the event through social media to show solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement that started on 17 September in New York City’s famous financial district." - http://english.ahram.org.eg/~/NewsContent/2/9/23596/World/International/Americans-in-the-Deep-South-join-Occupy-Wall-stree.aspx

Here's what we want: Term limits - 2 terms and gone, to limit corporations ability to corrupt. Line item veto - to allow a president to cut the pork. Force congress to be subject to the laws they pass. No waivers. Federal referendum.
