Novel Idea to Get Rid of These Protesters in All Cities

[20score]

Fix the goddamn system! Take care of poorest; make sure everyone has health care, get money out of politics, bring jobs back to the U.S., stop fighting and starting wars of choice, make the corporations and wealthy pay their fair share of taxes and take care of the land, air and water under our control.

I’ll bet they go away and stop protesting.

1. Yep. For one thing, they'll have jobs!

They will have a future, which they don't have now!

Why is anybody surprised that these people are out in the streets?

[BlueToTheBone]

2. That is novel. It probably won't happen.

At least not this week.

3. A big K&R!

[HappyMe]

4. Yup. nt

[Aerows]

5. Exactly

That is the point they are missing. You abuse the least of us, and you get those of us who give a damn protesting in the streets.

Not difficult to understand at ALL.

17. It's hard for me to understand the people that don't support it. At least those who claim to be on

the left...or even the center.

10. Great idea, but they spent years subverting our democracy in

order to get it to this stage.

They're not gonna stop now that they are so close to crushing us permanently.

15. Excellent post! Kick

[Huey P. Long]

16. yes sir. -eom

[OnionPatch]

18. Yep!

You summed it up perfectly.

[Selatius]

19. If you elected a Congress and a president willing to do that, you'd start a civil war.

Because the corporatists who've gained so much power would never willingly give it back without a fight.

You're looking at a civil war that could turn into a protracted struggle like this one:



And the president could end up like this guy:



But frankly, if it had to come to that, then it's a fight worth having. Our grandparents bled and died fighting fascism in Europe, but they weren't able to defeat the fascism that was over here. We'd be stepping up and completing something our grandparents started. The road would be long and difficult, but it would be for the sake of a better future.

20. prosecute the thieves

who exploded the economy and impoverished millions.

21. I believe OWS is our best hope.

[LiberalEsto]

22. K&R

But it would never occur to them to do these things.
