Mandate separation of insurance/invest.banks and S&Ls (Reinstate Glass Steagall.)
Pay for your own bailouts. (trans. tax approx. 01%)
No public $ for lobbying. Reverse Citizens United.
Tax hedge fund gamblers.
Change banker's pay--human limits on remuneration.
Let's keep it simple and together we will revolutionize our world.
hey guys,
I live in Geneva Switzerland here the Real Democracy Now Arm made the following proposal I find it quite interesting let me know what you guys think:
2.1- YES TO CUTS (of privileges): end of tax havens.
2.2- YES TO AUSTERITY (for the rich): progressive tax - Buffet law for millionaires.
2.3- YES TO TAXES (on speculation): Tobin tax of 0.05%-
The incidence of the transaction tax would fall on the account holders not the banks.
Citizens United is about private money not public.
Price ceilings are as damaging as price floors. However change public mood and make high pay social unacceptable in certain fields and it will start to bring pay down slowly.

To achieve healthy capitalism and to protect the people from corporate abuses and corruption a new universal system of labeling of all products and services must be designed and implemented globally. The ingredients of each product or service are composed from not only the physical components but more importantly from the processes involved in the final output.
All corporations and businesses in general must be held accountable and be observed by consumers, employees, the community, and the state departments. For this purpose a tagging system shall be put in place to measure and publicize on any product and any service on the performance of the production business for the total and each of at least the following issues: Executive pay Excessive advertisement Unfair advertisement Labor welfare Unions’ participation Capital distribution Political leverage Environmental responsibility Social contributions Fair play Equal opportunities Financial transparency http://tariganter.wordpress.com/2011/10/17/ethical-corporatism-tagging-system/

Redesign our political system, go for Digital Direct Democracy, we decide what laws to have, what to spend our money on, no more stinking politicians and corporate lobbyists.
I'm not sure that these items really address the root of the problems. Please watch this video for further clarification: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX1N3opw5eI
Thanks. I know his work and watched it before. I hope to change all of our institutions and work for that in my life. We also need to work towards change with what we have, as he says, can work with both established and developing.

We still need to destroy existing paradigm and humans are SLOW, but you have to work towards revolution on the ground.
