Occupy Your Street
Just ask yourself, how long will this Occupy ____ Street last? Ask also how does it compare to the so-called Arab spring movements that we have seen this year?
And the real McCoy is this: Will the occupy movement (or whatever it is) escalate into a general action? What if there was a one day strike, as spontaneous as it could be?
Would that give it some gravitas?
My proposal is something of a compromise.
And by no means immediate.
File your taxes two days late. Exactly two days late.
Just to show you are paying attention.

They've already lasted longer than I ever thought they would and seem to be largely resisting cooptation. As to what impact they'll have, that remains to be seen. My countrymen are pretty thick-skulled sometimes.
Yes, your countrymen are.
I say back to the sixties. politically, philosophically, militarily, and so on....
