We have to think differently are many of us will lose most of the things we take for granted (life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness).

Serious problems in serious times, demand serious solutions.

The problems we face today are not black and white like the Vietnam war or civil rights. Protesting is not enough to solve the problems we face today:

Sky rocketing debt, unemployment, underemployment, deficits, government failure, Economic systems failure, Financial systems failure, Market systems failure, Monetary systems failure, Social systems failure, Environmental systems failure, Ecosystems failure, corruption, greed, chronic recessions etc… etc… etc….

Hiding or ignoring our problems won't work either. Our problems won't go away just because we refuse to deal with them. They'll just get worse. That's how we got here.

If you know the world around you is collapsing and you do nothing about it, then who’s really at fault when you stood by and did nothing? We have to stop whining and do something about it. We don’t have to live like this.

I support it, but it's just a drop in the bucket.

The entire system is on their last stand for cash grabs.,...its not going to last much longer.

The real question then becomes - what do we do? Do we ban together? Or attack eachother? Or pander to the current status quo to save us?

I will be advocating for #1. The majority will probably be doing 2 and 3.
