As Occupy Wall Street gains strength, its obvious that a clear message and goal needs to emerge. While there are many critical issues swirling around, I believe all roads lead to one central issue at the core of our nations ills: Corporate money rules our politics. Period. Even rabid right wingers know this simple truth, and hate it as much as we do.
I believe we must coalesce around this, and use the energy of this growing movement to drive four simple words:
CORPORATIONS ARE NOT PEOPLE!
We need to demand that this be enshrined in our Constitution, and accept nothing less, since nothing less will fix what ails us and return the government to its people. This obviously will never happen without a Civil Rights-style movement forcing the issue, and OWS could be the spark that finally sets off that movement.
