Positive change is possible. Especially at the local level. We can restore and improve this country one block at a time.
Here’s a video of a man who’s demonstrating that philosophy not only works, but may even be relatively easy in the midst of our current recession/ depression. Local governments will cooperate with almost any plan that might reinvigorate their streets and businesses.

John Bush, Freedom Fighter
Last August, John Bush–a political activist at Austin, Texas–was ejected from an Austin City Council meeting and banned from returning for one year. Reason? The Austin City Council didn’t like what he had to say. Recently, the City Council terminated their ban and allowed Mr. Bush to again speak at that public forum.
Here’s his return speech. Note that while Mr. Bush brought some notes with him, he speaks primarily from his heart and mind. By speaking, he’s having far more effect than if he were shooting or bombing. Judging from this video, Mr. Bush may soon be elected as a member of the City Council that previously banned him, or even as congressman. This guy’s good. If we can find a few more like Mr. Bush, we just might save this country from the fascists.

A homeless man, Kelly Thomas, was beaten to death and arguably murdered by six employees of the Fullerton, California police department.
Public outrage is growing and even threatening the city council. Is the murder of a homeless man what it finally takes to arouse the public to reassert their authority over their cities and police forces?

The world invests 3 billion hours per week playing internet games. The 2-minute video below suggests that the reason for spending so much time on games is that too many people are inadequately stressed in our daily lives. I.e., our daily lives have become so organized and “tame” that they’ve become meaningless, so we’re seeking more “action” in an imaginary world of hi-tech, internet games.

Jesse Ventura, former Navy SEAL, world wrestling star and governor of Minnesota objects to being groped by TSA airport staff–so he’s suing the SOBs.
Given Jesse’s flair for showmanship, this should be a show.

Max Kaiser has proposed a scheme to destroy JP Morgan Chase (a “too big to fail” bank) by buying silver coins, silver bars, etc. The strategy relies on the facts that 1) the silver market is relatively thin; 2) a small increase in demand for silver can cause a significant rise in silver prices; 3) JP Morgan has shorted millions of ounces of silver and thereby bet that the price of silver will FALL; 4) therefore, if every American bought just one ounce of silver (say, 200 million ounces) the price of silver would go so high that JP Morgan would lose so much money on its “short” position on silver that JP Morgan would have to declare bankruptcy.
The strategy is explained in full in the attached video and appears to be going viral. It actually appears possible for the PEOPLE to take down a major bank and major player in the New World Order by simply acting in concert. This is an exciting possibility. We can not only “reach out and touch” the SOBs, we just might be able to beat the bastards. This is internet-based political action on an extraordinary basis.
