....first things first....until we regain control of our government and institutions, and begin to change regressive trade laws, little is going to change....the current situation was created by and for the sole benefit of the 1% after they consolidated power in the '70s....

....the 99% baggers and the 99% Progressives share similar problems and a dislike of our current situation....we share similar pain and misfortune from unemployment and the wall street cabal....we share a similar distrust of the rope-a-dope philosophy of our the major Parties....we need to call a truce in order to work on our shared problems....

....we both need to have the money removed from elections and have the corporate influence removed from our respective Parties....or, we need to develop new Left and Right wing Parties to platform and support our own candidates and views.....we no longer can afford to be hoodwinked, played or disadvantaged by the 1% political Parties and their paid stooges....the 1% has bled us both dry, we have no more to give....

....when the above has been accomplished we can then fight amongst ourselves for the soul of America....
