as dead. How many innocent civilians did we kill in Iraq and Afganistan?
Lets cut our military budget in half, fix our infrastructure, our educational system, bolster SS and Medicare, and enact single payer!
I know ya'll must be tired of me saying this but, lets have the big war here at home by marching and voting for candidates that promise to enact COMPLETE CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM (CCFR) including Publicly Funded Elections! Candidates not beholden to the lobbyists from the MIC, Wall Street, Insurance, Big Pharma and the oil companies would actually Represent us, the people! Since these industries have had the laws written for them by the politicians who owe their position to these greedy, heartless, soulless, corporations and spoiled billionaires, they will fight like hell against us. They have been preparing since OWS caught them off guard. This time, lets get some direction from some leaders who can keep the focus on just this issue. It is the root cause of most of our problems anyway. With our Reprentatives in office we can address our other issues and start to fix the damage caused by the special interests!
Can we start the movement here at DU? Who agrees with me on this?
