I would like to understand what our proposed solutions are. I understand and can discuss the unfairness, but what solutions are being proposed to change it. What do we want corporations and rich individuals to do moving forward?
OK These are rediculous solutions. In fact they are not solutions at all. A 90.00 per hour maximum. What does that solve? No private ownership of land? Who should own the land?
Come on there must be smart people here who can develop SMART public policy that would work!!!
We must be and get better than this!!!
adbusters goal is ... to remove money from politics ... by removing politicians from the process via direct democracy.
If there are no politicians ... then they can't be corrupted by wall street.
However ... direct democracy is mob rule. And I am not sure where ones individuals rights are protected!?!
Look at their list of demands here: http://occupywallst.org/forum/proposed-list-of-ows-demands/
Remove Money From Politics: Our political "leaders" should be bending over backwards trying figure out how to do this.
If we remove money from politics, corporations overrun with greed will self destruct. I feel sorry for them, but I am not sure what they can do about it. Buy local.
