Forum Post: The Tea Party Went from Opposing Banks to Opposing the "Death Tax" - How Can OWS Avoid Being Captured by the 1% on the Left?

The origins of the Tea Party had a genuine spirit of Justice. Today, however, it is dominated by special interests: taxes, supposedly, are the problem. And of course "spending" - but not defense spending, spending on ordinary people to improve the country.

What will become of OWS? Absent a list of demands, we are nothing more than a group of . . . well, demonstrators. We need policy change.

The same will happen if you try to work with the two party duopoly in DC. They have been at this game a long time, much longer than OWS. Go outside them. Be your own leaders.

It's all too obvious that those screwballs in DC don't represent the people any more. They only give a shit about their bank accts.
