I dont understand,. You tell me to pick one, raise taxes, then you give me two choices. But if I pick one, raise taxes, that really is not a choice, because you told me to pick one, raise taxes.

So I guess I will do as I am told, I pick ONE.

I would prefer to pick 2, but them I would have picked both, and I only want to pick ONE, but I dont want to pick 1, I want to pick 2.

End corruption is impossible within the type of government we have. This could be a solution. http://www.occupyr.com/Strategy/thread.php?id=582

End the wall st all together.

Raising taxes does not make sense. Make people responsible for the corporations they managing in proportion to the shares they are holding. Lower and simplify the taxes, but make them squared.

End Wall Street.

if you raise taxes, wall street would not have the capital to corrupt Washington.

Jesse selected RAISE TAXES. (I figured as much). Who is next to reveal the truth about OWS?

I'm with buphiloman; those things are far from mutually exclusive. In fact, I'd argue that properly managed tax increases on corporations (especially those with factories overseas) and the wealthy goes hand in hand with regulating and decorrupting Wall Street.

Good point. I like the way it is however. Another post would be fair, and I'm all about fair.
