Chris Hedges: No way in US system to vote against banks
TheAlyonaShow on Oct 6, 2011
Between Occupy Wall Street, in New York, and the other cities it’s spread to, as well as the October 2011 movement that just began here in D.C, something seems to be happening in this country. Earlier at Freedom Plaza Chris Hedges, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and author, tells us what this could lead to.

Chris Hedges, as always, names the dots and shows the lines between them. The situation before us is GRIM, and I am pleased to read the comments of others–the longer ones often the most passionate.
I learn as much from the Commenters as I do from the articles and videos. And there is really only one topic: Conduct on this planet.
chris hedges is one of the few who consisently puts his ‘ feet in front of his mouth ‘ . he not only postulates, he DOES!
the key here for we who care is to A) connect the Occupy Wall St. movement ideals with those of cutting the military spending DRASTICALLY ( as with the 25% Solution movment ) and getting the HELL out of iraq , afghanistan, libya etc NOW!
b) IF EVERYONE WOULD DEVOTE BUT ONE HOUR A WEEK TO STANDING IN THEIR OWN TOWN SQUARES AND HOLD SIGNS THAT EXPRESS THESE THINGS…..
imagine!! myself and my 83 yr. old compatriot do just that and it is a wonderful feeling for us both! try it!!
The difference between the weekly protests and this movement of occupying part of your city is civil disobedience. Unfortunately, that is what makes a movement. The people need to do more than hold a sign on a street corner (legally). Complying with those in power doesn’t make any changes.
