End the Fed or Fix it?
We’ve all heard this before. “End the Fed” What I’ve never heard is “Fix the Fed” or “Reform the Fed” What do you think? Should we do away with a central bank? Should we strip it of its power to make loans without any executive branch or congressional approval? What’s your thoughts about this situation.
And keep the “politics” local. Start small, local, and grassroots.
If the Occupy movement radicalizes and adopts effective direct action strategy rather than relying upon symbolic protests, I’d say we’re almost ready.
Gov. Jerry Brown has signed the bill allowing Illegal immigrants attending California universities to receive state financial aid.
The measure, which makes illegal immigrants who are accepted into state universities eligible, starting in 2013, for Cal-Grant assistance.
The governor’s action also allows those without citizenship papers to tap into institutional grants while attending the University of California and California State University systems, and to get fee waivers in the California community college system.A step towards education for ALL!!!

Watch Occupy Miami #LIVE right here
Occupy Wall Street, What Next??!?
So the movement is gaining more national attention and doesn’t seem like its slowing down anytime soon.
But what do we do next?
Should we protest 365 days a year and 24 hours a day?
Should we start to teach people skills to help them get a job?
Should we teach people about Personal Finance and help them make better decisions with their money?
Should we created own own economy, make our own currency?
These are just some things I’ve been thinking about. Please weigh in and lets get this discussion going.

Q:www(.)occupiedworld(.)tumblr(.)com/ Spread the word <3
done
Will YOU Occupy?
We need to get the message out. Dont be afraid, put it on your Facebook, Twitter, Myspace(If you Use it still) Google Plus, Tumblr, You Tube, etc. The playing field in life needs to be balanced. It doens’t make any sense that you can go to college, work hard, and still not get a job. WORK 40 hours a week and MAKE ENOUGH JUST TO BE BROKE. It is sad that even after we got healthcare reform insurance companies are dropping plans so they cant insure us. Even after we got student loan reform the states want to take away people grants and we cant better ourselves. States even want to take away our voting rights..
Well I’m fed up and things will change. You can bring change too.
At the Voting box, REGISTER TO VOTE, and VOTE EARLY.
