All the nurse, police, teacher's firemen's and all the other pension funds for public and private employees are the largest stockholders of public companies that are traded on Wall Street. Yet, there is no mention of this, and how the pensionholders can use their sheer numbers to determine how these pension funds invest THEIR money. Vote with your money! Tell your unions to become more involved in how their pension funds are invested on Wall Street. This will really have more impact than anything else.

"Vote with your money!"

BRILLIANT - Now THERE'S a plan that OWS should endorse because it would actually WORK.

Let's take ALL of our money out of the "military-industrial-Congressional complex" that Eisenhower warned us against.
