Hopefully this post won't be deleted by the powers that be but here it goes:
1) End the Fed. It doesn't serve the common good's interest, only the big mega banks.
2) End the revolving door between government and the mega corporations.
3) Ensure government contracts go to small business like they're supposed to.
4) No more corporate lobbying to swing legislation their way. Our politicians shouldn't be sold to the highest bidder.
5) Bring home our troops and quit policing the entire planet. This will solve many of our budget problems in itself.
6) No more too big to fail banker bailouts. The tax payer doesn't owe the debts incurred by these gambling casino banks.
7) End the war on drugs. Put these violent cartels out of business and save billions in wasted tax payer money.
8) End the practice of unelected bureaucrats enacting policies to suit their own agendas. We have a legislative branch for a reason.
Disclaimer: This is not the official list of demands by the OWS movement. These opinions may not be shared by all, but they are certainly shared by many.
You forgot one, an important one.
Overturn and outlaw "Citizens United". Corporations are not people. (Not until I see Koch Industries hanged for treason.)
9) Legalize prostitution.
The first 3 fix the rest. This is not an official OWS list approved the GA. and you should make that clear.
Done.
(I did the same thing recently and realized later it could be used against us by the media or whoever lol)
