This week the Gut Reaction takes a turn toward activism with an official declaration of support for the Occupy Wall Street movement and a lengthy interview with Ryan Hoffman, co-author of the movements’ ONLY official declaration to date (check the link below). None of the “demands” other people are posting to their website and elsewhere, apparently out of wishful thinking on their part, are legitimate or official.
We start with MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan’s call to ‘Get Money out of Politics’ and, with over 162 THOUSAND signatures (as of Sunday night) supporting Ratigan’s proposed constitutional amendment aimed at shutting off the flow of big money to politicians, it’s an excellent, and clear expression of the people’s outrage.
And the continue with our series about the Occupy Wall Street protest-turned-movement and how THAT is also a great example of the people’s unhappiness with our government and the multi-Billion dollar corporations that are buying our government wholesale.
