Forum Post: Occupy song I wrote

I was so inspired by the protests that I decided to write a song about it. I fully support the Occupy movement and I wish for change in this country. I am sure some people will agree with what I am saying in this song. I know it isn't perfect, but at least I tried.

Thank you for this. I would like to share this song with you (I did not write it)

It's called I'm With You

I do not know this artist and have nothing to gain from this. I think the song is a perfect match for the movement, whether the writer intentionally did so or not.

Thank you

Lovely song with uplifting lyrics.

Furthermore, I suggest that if you can't beat em, join em.

Starting a bank sounds like an impossible Gilded Age enterprise; more befitting of a Rockefeller than today's small business owner. But it's not as impossible as one might think -- or as risky.

According to Smart Money.com, "the three-year failure rate for new banks is less than one in 1,000," which, compared with a "60 percent failure rate for new restaurants," is not so horrible. The profits are not too shabby either. The site reports: "6,770 community banks earned $67 billion over the past five years."

In a recent Wall Street Journal interview, even Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan says that he would start a bank -- if he were 50 years younger.

So help start a direct democracy bank, as follows: https://docs.google.com/a/strategicinternationalsystems.com/document/pub?id=1mKKLMTIyvRCLK2ppPj_GDjdieCvJnATaZaCmlajubWU
