Subject: RE: BS: Wall Street Protesters...
there is a reason why OWS isn't going to put forth 100 page "white papers" of policy, dick...

Then it turns the turf over the oligarchs who will us their vast wealth to twist details and then movement is over... Don't look for that... We are telling you what is wrong... Ya'll come up with some ideas that ya'll can argue over... If after ya'll fight over the meaning of the word "is" is then put your ideas out...

Here are the major beefs that OWS has:

1. Public financing for elections - no exceptions, no loopholes, no PACs, no Citizens United...

2. Income disparity - 10% can't control 90% of the wealth... That is not healthy...

3. Accountability (arrests and imprisonment) of Wall Street crooks...

4. Jobs, jobs, jobs (in the United States)...

5. Affordable college education...

Thems is just the basics...
