Forum Post: "We Have Very Few Days to Act"

We have very few days to act. The tax cut this administration gave to a regular worker in their paycheck last year is supposed to expire by the end of this coming December. There was a proposal to make this tax cut even bigger by this administration But Republicans want this tax cut to expire. We need to pressure them and allow the even bigger tax cut in our paychecks. We should demand that the tax cut to the rich expire instead. "Act now Pressure the Congress & make this Public"

I want you all to know, The world is no longer watching, The world has paused... And now the world is listening.

More and more people are asking me about Occupy. They want details. They want news. They want to truly KNOW what is going on. I tell them and now have my own (very small) group of people who get their daily updates from me. Support is growing and the more pressure that is applied, the more society is forced to ask that age old question of "why"?

You are supported. The world is listening.

i believe we (occupy protestors) are not here to pass or support any legislation. We are here to change the system. we do not think congress has power to help us. we need to get rid of FED and have new banking system in country regulated by the govt of people, what we have today is government run by fed, banksters and 1% . What can you expect out of today's congress who are bought out by banksters. Congress is working in the interest of 1% and not in public interest. Whether people get tax cuts or not must be already decided by 1% and your calls to congress wont make any difference in outcome.

Tax break equals $120 billion a year.

So the question is does the budget need the money, or the "121 million families a tax cut averaging $934"

No we should let it expire. This might bring the masses out when it hits them in the wallet, not that it hasnt already. When they realize their taxes got raised and the rich people got lower taxes it would be good for us.
