…HELL NO!!!! AND IT AIN’T OVER NOW!!!! Here are some suggestions. (1)Reorganize and restructure. (2)Come up with clear and concise problem statements. Make sure to stay centered politically in hopes of garnering conservative support (the Tea Party is essentially an ally). This can be accomplished by, (a) putting the criticism of the 700 billion dollar bailout at the forefront of every protestor’s conversation, and by (b) asking for a return to the competiveness of true market capitalism where government regulates institutions from creating huge corporate conglomerates (i.e. anti-Chicago School of Economics). (3) Act peacefully and civilly against Police Officers. Obviously, continue a stance of non-violence but also do not act so indignant when the cameras are rolling, meaning keep your mouth shut. Let the cops do their job, which knowing their brutish behavior, will ultimately make them look bad. Ideally, we would live in a world where everything is equal but this world ain’t sunshine and rainbows. We have to make do with what we have and that is capitalism. So, let’s try to stop the reprehensible abuse of the system and return it to a state of fairness. Good Luck and remember America’s rooting for ya. DON’T GIVE UP! Let’s do this! p.s. I know it was Japan that bombed Pearl Harbor. For all you youngsters out there, the title is a quote from the movie Animal House.

redistribution is happening now. either it will happen in the long run, quantitative easing, the short run, new tax code, or the fair way, putting people to work.

Oh good you took an economics class. What does what you just said have to do with improving anti-trust laws?

well, "trusts," is such an antiquated word. anti hedge fund laws are what we need. hedges exist to protect those who invest in the system. they allow investors leeway when dealing with economic down turns. as the media gives wealthy people a bull horn. hedge funds give the investor a stick to beat the government. lobbies give the investor a carrot to entice the government no?

I do think there should be tighter regulation of hedge funds but like I said before I believe the true problem is the monoplization of corporate entities. And come on,trusts" or competition law is not an antiquated word.

trusts were what industrialists used to manage the supply chain. hedge funds are what is used today. if most of the companies in the world are owned by interl@cking board of directors, then those interests that have a controlling interest in the world economy act as a trust.
