Stop caring if CNN is covering the mass protests. Start caring about CNBC's coverage.
You have your revolution.
You can't fight power with drum circles
We're a republic... stop with the all calls for a return to democracy, we have never been one and I hope we never will be. You are showing how to help crash banks and maybe reset the financial system, and I am for withdrawing money from large banks, but not the "democracy," which again, doesn't exist.
Did you see the recent story on SHTFplan about Bank of America? People were trying to take their money out and B of A brought in a swat team.

However, there are bank runs starting in Europe now.
its not that simple, but.. thanks for playing..
It is a power that all Middle Class Americans have. It would bring the Powers that Be to the table, instead of ignoring a agendaless protest.
again, if only it were THAT simple... good ideas.. still need to spread out a bit more and think things through deeper... your leading the way in that... but your scattered with dozens of other people in assorted directions and so this won;t get heard ... because you all do this- emit and think of yourself as being all over it and don't visit the dozens of other threads which your thread is just a continuation of. Everybody does this. Start a new thread, fail to read the old threads.. because their contribution is just so much more important than continuity with where everyone else already was... Its a prime example of epic fail due to bad programming. You didn't post to the old threads. Thanks to that not only will you be ignored but you are ALL OF YOU reciprocally ignoring each other. All of you sure that you alone have the critical insight.. none of you bothering to do any work other than emit. No research. No time scrolling the forum list. See the problem? I like your ideas. You and everyone else needs to grow up about what to do with them after.
Can you go back to the first time I came up with this idea, three threads ago, and lecture me there. Thank you for the insight, Santa Barbara sideliner. I forgot to mention that people will have to remove their cash from the bank during the hour on EST, so that their banks don't fail an hour before they planned them to. See the Gov't would have to write a much bigger check to the bankers because of FDIC, but they won't have the collateral to back it. We cannot elect anything better than what we have because people who are willing to write checks to failing banks are all we have offered to us. But if we control banks ourselves instead of these terrible legislators, then we truly to have power. In the US money, before food and energy, rules the day. Currently.
yes, good points. so. whats happened is the disorder and scrawl has people escalating over that and creating 10 new threads for their one simple message. do you see the problem with that? If what everyone has to say is so important, then you all have to take the time to READ what OTHERS have said allready and respond to it there. Instead everyone assumes their own importance and loads the forum with more bandwidth. Eventually the bandwidth is itself so large that nobody could ever read the forum or even a single days worth of threads. Its a vicious cycle, esp relevan to the problem of having sub forums and a wiki.
i can't even post new threads. can't get to the bottom. So you and everyone else who posted your brilliant new ideas which are actually needed in the older threads- have created a giant log jam of disconnected noise instead of a conversation. by not listening to each othe ryou have crammed the space so tight and full that at least some of us can no longer even post new threads. You may think this is harsh but you know i am venting this with you because you actually lead the pack for quality content. your content is awesome. but everyones emitting,. not listening. not scrolling down. and for that reason you are all epic failing ... ego tripping and emitting instead of listening and organizing.
Take all of your money out of the bank on Dec 23rd.
i will... do that..
Your money in the bank is the tool used to oppress you, and pays for it.
Again ... with the Great Depression.
The great depression happened because the banks over stretched their money (like they are now) The difference is, the government insures most banks now. So this will take directly from the government. FORCING them to fix the corruption so we put our money back in the system.
