You will not see any of those things unless you break the door down. They cannot hear you. They have money in their ears. This was the message before the media came. Before the trolls came.
This link was given as a reply on this forum when I first signed up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI_P3pxze5w watch it as many times as you need to, so you remember. The people on the ground give power to the movement but it is here, on the web, that everyone comes to listen. All of your energy is being wasted in this troll infested forum and the momentum created by the people on the ground is being wasted. Even if it's not my site, pick a spot. Use it to make your self heard loud and clear. Leave no guess room for them. Do not allow the media for one more week to set the narrative for you. Bypass those who would hijack this for self interest.
For those saying none of us work. I do, here > http://citicommons.com and I pay for it out of my pocket.
I don't agree with Dylan Ratigan. Besides, the idea of taking "money out of politics" is ludicrous. Money IS politics. Every time we spend a dollar we are acting in the political realm. It's a political decision to shop at Wal-mart. It's a political decision to purchase a Prius. It's a political decision to accept a job at McDonalds. The idea that money CAN be separated from politics is ridiculous. Money is the MEANS of politics. That's the problem. Money is a failed system and we need a new economic system. In order to get it we need a new political system because money is ENTIRELY political.
My conclusion is that "money must fall" so that something else can replace it. We can get to work on creating its replacement right now, and we should do that, but we must realize that money is a failed system. It has failed to produce peace, justice or sustainability. We need to abandon money and in order to do that we need to abandon the idea of "property rights." Nobody has a right to OWN anything. We all have the right to what we NEED in order to survive and thrive. We built this country with the idea of ownership. We owned the slaves, remember? Now we need to back down and start from a righteous foundation. We need to take CARE of each other before we play our property games.
Bypass those who would hijack this for self interest.
I'm sorry, Dave

Carrol Quigley - the bankers' plan
"The Power of financial capitalism had [a] far reaching plan, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.
This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences.
The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks, which were themselves private corporations.
Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence co-operative politicians by subsequent rewards in the business world."
