I agree we need specific goals to harness the energy of this movement. Here is my idea of specific goals for this movement:

USA is number 23rd in infrastucture in the world and 24th in Math and science. This group should also promote along with their other ideas to make USA number in one in infrastructure and education. Once the public and politicians embarace these goals, it will create jobs immdiately and make USA stronger in the future. Also it will unify the movement. These protesters should make the following signs: MAKE USA #1 IN INFRASTRUCTURE MAKE USA #1 IN EDUCATION These are non-partisan goals and both parties should get behind it and promote it. Let us see which party embraces this idea first Ramesh Miglani, Danville CA

I agree this is a good goal, but it doesn't address the source of the problem. The problem is that it is so difficult for the majority of Americans to have our needs/values addressed. First we need to overcome the imbalance in our power structure; I believe the best way to do this is to amend the US constitution to state that a corporation is not a person. Then they won't have the right to free "speech" (throwing money at politicians to advance their own interests over those of their employees and customers and often, even their shareholders). then it'll be a whole lot easier to work on all these other problems.
