READ THESE BILLS THEY ARE 100% WHAT OUR MOVEMENT STANDS FOR

1: Nationalize the federal reserve and end the fractional banking system. End the debt based privatized monetary system that has put our country in massive levels of debt and has devalued our dollar year after year. This has been putting the working class closer and closer to the poverty line. Support this bill. HR 2990 The National Emergency Employment Defense Act of 2011. This bill is 100% backed by the Constitution of the United States. It also follows what the Declaration of Independence stands for: Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

2: Campaign Finance Reform. Overturn "Citizen United." Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States ending corporate contributions to ANY politicians.

This third one is a suggestion from a lot of people that I agree with.

  1. Add an amendment ending corporate personhood and hold the men/women of corporations and business and such accountable for the negative output they can generate at times. Negligence that results in the deaths of people is not acceptable through payment of fines and lawsuits. The men/women responsible for the negligence need to be held accountable. Sometimes killing people and paying off lawsuits and fines is cheaper than throwing away the potentially dangerous or tainted products. With no accountability, what's to stop the actual person behind the problem?

The second bill would also overturn the bullshit that is Citizens United. Would you like to know more about the corruption in the supreme court? Find out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_United_v._Federal_Election_Commission
