1. Be the media

Print out the best articles and hand them to your friends.

It does amaze me that there is a huge demand for real news and commentary like you see on the Internet. Something like US Today has just about got to pop up as most newspapers are insults to anyone with any kind of intellectual drive and a year or more online.

Everyone is still waiting to see if Current.tv can attract "reality-based" news and commentary and an audience.

I think we will see "reality-based" parties where people bring notebooks with printed articles from the Internet as a means of the people educating themselves. People may not understand the machinations of the country heading for the bottom, but plenty of people can feel it. Unemployment, eternal war, lack of health care, gas and food prices, and stagnant wages means that feeling will be true pain with millions of us.
