As expected, the JREF forum is primarily anti-OWS which doesn't bother me. The forum population includes a high percentage of overly-educated, doughy, middle-aged guys and that tends to lean just slightly to the right. (That is also, incidentally, why I like posting here. Echo-chambers are very dull.)
As an occupier/activist I do have one question though - If the issues addressed by OWS* and various occupies are something that concern me, how else can I make my voice heard? This is not a facetious question. After using all the tools available to a citizen, I no longer have faith in any traditional aspect of our democratic system.
*economic injustice, politicians that are reliant on corporate cash to be elected, a government that is unduly influenced by lobbiers & special interest groups, stagnant wages, health care bankruptcies, our ever increasing poverty and unemployment numbers PLUS the stupidity of having the second lowest corporate and income tax rates partially because of tax breaks that went into effect while we were invading two countries. and paying for those tax breaks by cutting all aspects of social services - cops, firemen, teachers, CPS, social workers, employment offices, appeals for VA claims, etc, etc, etc to the point where many of these vital services are unable to function properly.
