Never posted a video (or an op for that matter). Saw this and it blew me away.

6. Right now, I am teaching
in Italy for a few months, and everyday I see young North Africans and Palestinians and Nigerians and Romanians and they are out hustling on the streets just trying for a better life. And then i think of all our brothers and sisters from Mexico and Ecuador and Honduras in the US doing the same thing. We are all just trying to survive in the face of our exploitation. This is the only way we can beat the multinational corporatist fuckers. It really is us - the middle class, the working class, the dispossessed, the "illegal aliens" class - against them - the international corporations.

The Wobblies had it right. The corporations have gone international in their pillaging. It's time we realize that we are all in this together and do the same thing.

12. +100.........
"...we are all in this together" - This cannot be said enough. We need a global movement to do this. Lone folks in individual countries can't do it alone.

overproduced (for my taste), but very political. Good stuff
