So, what are your plans since the glorious revolution is not coming?

[TBF]

44. I really don't know what you want us to say -

I definitely want to see us evolve past capitalism to socialism. I'm to the point where I'd even settle for a Scandinavian type economy. It would be a step in the right direction.

I won't criticize Occupy other than to say it's what you would expect from a bourgeoisie movement. Our unions are decimated and we are not going to have current union involvement on a large scale during an election year. Right now in the interest of protecting what little rights women and minorities have, and to keep things from getting far worse, we are working on electing Obama.

Some would take other approaches but that's how I feel about it right now.

Your anecdotal evidence aside, Occupy has actually been very effective in raising awareness. How do we know this? We know the 1% are paying attention just by noting how many police we have turn out at any activity, and we note their violent response to non-violent protest. A group that is doing "nothing" does not get that attention. Occupy is most definitely a threat to the status-quo.
