We need to expand to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. and take our message to President Obama! Congress also needs to hear us. They both have the power to change things. Things that they created

Agree, NY is to confining. If you overstay your welcome the momentum changes to a negative.

As a student of Bovine University struggling with loan debt, I support this. When do we roll!!?

Don't worry, once you graduate from Bovine University you won't have to worry about a life with debt for very long.

With this burden of student loan debt, I doubt graduation is an option. Even if I were to graduate, what then? Would I even be able to put food on the table?

Occupy the white house!

My guess is that will be attempted as some point....wish I could be there when it happens. But at my age (68) travel is difficult at best and too expensive for me.

If it does take happen then I will be there to take your place and I will send you a personal picture. Thanks for keeping yourself involved all these years.

I plan to - just need 65,000,000 voters to get me/us there: http://www.JeffBlock2012.com

Makes sense, since the current occupants are flushing our futures down the toilet. Obama needs more time for golf and basketball anyway. I suggest he retire.

agreed:

Corporations answer to their shareholders and have the objective of maximizing ROI for those shareholders.

Government is supposed to be "for the people" and does things like telling corporations "on your way to maximizing ROI for your investors, you CANNOT pollute that stream that belongs to "We the People".

Protesting directly to/at the corporations will accomplish...what? Unless the shareholders agree with the protesters nothing will change.

There really should be an "Occupy Congress" and if you think "Occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue" is also a way to go, check out my plan to "occupy" the White House for 100 days: http://www.JeffBlock2012.com
