We can blame so many people for the Status Quo..... but blaming won't get us nowhere we need to focus how to fix our situation now. So many hard working people has lost there jobs for the irresponsibility of the 1%. But more than that for the irresponsibility of those in Washington who are not doing their job, the job they were hired for. It is time to regain control of our business and tell our employees at the White House, Congress and other governments .... “If you don't start doing your job you will also get a pink slip. "IT'S TIME FOR US TO CHANGE"

The time for the pink slip has come and gone. It's now them or us. Our freedoms or their power base. Our ignorance or their collaboration. Ignorance is bliss they say. Paradise lost is more like it. Uneducated, self serving, selfish, closed minded Americans are the future death of Freedom and Democracy. Look up the definition of Fascism.. I did NOT say Anti semitism or Nazi... Look up a what a Fascist State is... and we my brothers and sisters have liftoff of realization.

how you can change:

  1. stop voting for democrats or republicans. vote out EVERY incumbent.
  2. go back to looking for a job rather than camping in public spaces.
  3. throw the truthers out of your movement.
  4. stop advocating the elimination of capitalism.
  5. stop claiming the entire nations is made up of 2, and only 2, groups. it is insulting to anyone who can count to 3 or higher. very few people are the wealthiest 1%, but that does not mean they are on the same plane as a bum sitting in his/her own filth by choice, a semi-educated and unambitious person who had 3 kids by the time s/he was 21, or a low-level career criminal/gangster.

if this is confusing to you, see #3 and realize they've ruined your ability to think straight.

Sound like advice that needs to be avoided at all cost.

really? so democrats and republicans are working out well for you? camping is better than working and supporting yourself? capitalism isn't largely responsible for most of the things (not people, not love and friendship) that makes your life better?

truthers help the movement? (pfffftttt!!!! wow.)

you advocate a false dichotomy?

and you wonder why ows is fizzling out.

You miss the point! This is not about democrats or republicans this is about a corporate takeover of our government. Capitalism has never been responsible for my happiness or well being. Capitalism is a market system not a way of life! What we have in the US is monopolized corporatism not capitalism! There is no free market in the US. A third party is not the answer. This is not about truthers! You appear to be stuck in a box made of your own conclusions. And should you be right and I wrong then if this is Capitalism it is time to dissolve it.

"Capitalism has never been responsible for my happiness or well being."

I'm sure you'd like to think that. Not saying it is solely responsible, but to deny its effect completely is laughable.

"What we have in the US is monopolized corporatism not capitalism! "

so all those nobodies who were enormously successful inventing something useful that improved people's lives...never really happened?

maybe you need to think this through a little more.

"A third party is not the answer." - I see. you're a democrat. sorry to inform you of this, but both parties suck.

"You miss the point!" - you never had a point other than you oppose the 5 things I listed.
