By Connie Frankowiak

 
October 17, 2011 (Julian)-- Who are these people that are taking to the streets, parks and open spaces of America because they know that no one in power is listening to them???!!!!

They are Americans who have lost their Republic, jobs, homes, businesses, health insurance and all hope because of the greed and corruption of the Robber Barons and their Stooges that have taken over their country.
 

America's young people are beginning to realize that their futures will be a lot less prosperous then their parents,  unless they get actively involved in regaining their Republic.

Occupying Everywhere!

The corporatocracy and the GOP (Grand Old Plutocrats) have linked arms to ensure that the 99% have little or nothing to live on. They need to see the hordes of humans that their ill-gotten gains have put into the streets! Moms and kids, as well as dads, are walking along the roads and byways, searching for safe places to spend the nights, after begging for funds to buy a day's ration of food. These folks are not part of the concentration of people gathering to Occupy San Diego or Wall Street. They are occupying everywhere! We need to oust from office the corporate titans and officeholders who work for them instead of their constituents who elected them. We need to elect officials who are not beholden to corporations and the 1% who hold most of the nation's wealth!
