  We’ve got a ways to go yet but it’s certainly been set in motion.

  The 5 million people protesting last week (including me) gives me hope. And I have had one friend tell me he wants to join me next time, and he’s the last person I would ever think would protest.

  There’s momentum growing on the good side, too. Don’t give up hope yet.

    there is no going back to the old because it was the old system that allowed this to happen. I hope you manage to take back your country and rebuild it, but first the rot has to be razed completely or same thing will happen again later even worse.

    What’s a hypothetical situation you can describe that may occur? That stops or limits this

      Medicare/Medicaid/SS cuts will have people rioting. They are playing with fire there.

      Aside from that type of drastic event, I see discontent growing daily. People are fed up with the general unease and sense of unfairness in our system. It takes time for that anger to build but you don’t get 5 million people in the streets in every single state in the country when everyone is just sitting around taking their crap. I am hopeful that this growing movement will begin direct action such as general strikes, but that’s a ways off. For now we just need to keep showing up, and show everyone else that there are a LOT of us and we are PISSED and we’re not taking this laying down.

        How’s the public going to stop that though?
