I'm active in the Occupy movement. I give the movement 30% odds at success.

My guess is that you are going to find that words aren't going to amount to shit in the coming fight, and make no mistake we are right now at the turning point of this country.

This country is all but bought and paid for. Obama has taken more money in this campaign cycle from Wall Street supporters than all of the Republican candidates combined.

Very soon we are likely to see the NDA bill signed by Obama, and we will begin the slide on the slippery slope.

I put the odds at 70% that you will live to see how ineffectual our words are going to become.
