In support of Occupy ... One message, One Voice

One of the questions I hear being asked over and over again is, "what are they all about"? We need to have one message and we need to voice it with one voice.

All of my life I have watched the corporations accumulate more and more wealth.  This translates into more and more power, power in the economic arena, power in the political arena and power in the governmental arena.  This results in them having a corrosive influence in all three arenas.

All of my life I have watched those around me acknowledge the wrongness of this situation and wring their hands at their inability to do anything about. We live in a time of momentous change.  We no longer have to be a silent majority, we can speak out, we can act and we should. Provided we have the right message conveyed in the right way 

To me the message is simple.

We will no longer tolerate the corruption of our politics and government by the corporations.

Let me reiterate and emphasize this:

WE WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE THE CORRUPTION OF OUR POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT BY THE CORPORATIONS!


Now is that all we have to say? Of course not.  We need talking points and a program (more on that in later posts) but the discussion should always lead back to "we will no longer ...".

Well there it is, a simple message rendered with one voice.

What do you think?
