JoBParticipantbe sure to watch the trailer for Inside Job..
http://www.sonyclassics.com/insidejob/
the trailer is enough to put anyone off politics completely :(
which is why i am guessing we will see it.

JanSParticipantnice trailer…horror movie?

DPMemberWhy would this information put people off politics? Shouldn’t it put them “on” politics?
Or by “politics” do you mean, simply, voting?

JoBParticipantDP..
i think i was implying voting when stating the expected time frame…
but i think this could also put people off politics…
as it is becoming more and more difficult for individuals to make any kind of impact…
Our government is currently for sale to the highest bidder :(

DPMemberIt’s not that much harder for people to make an impact these days, JoB, though I can see how someone might think that from the way things have been going lately.
— People getting out on the streets can still make a difference.
— Shaming politicians in public can still make a difference.
— Non-violent resistance to injustice can still make a difference.
Even voting can make a difference, though I’ll grant you that voting makes less of a difference when politicians feel more beholden to corporate lobbyists than to voters.
Consider this: I-1098 is going to be a big step forward for our state and we’re doing it all on our own.
It’s like . . . Look, Ma! No politicians!
So in short,

I am optimism.
And you can too.

JoBParticipantdidn’t you hear…
microsoft and boeing think it will make it harder to hire good workers and to procure resources…
1098 is far from a sure thing.
as for those things you mentioned
been doing them for 40+ years..
haven’t stopped yet
good thing i am a very stubborn woman
I don’t require results to keep up the fight.

HMC RichParticipantStay stubborn, but if people in any business are ripping off “us” I say expose them. I say expose people who hire illegal aliens. I say expose the cheaters in all aspects of life, private and in the government.

JoBParticipantHMCRich…
in the past you haven’t liked it much when i exposed the cheaters who are playing front man for the Tea Party…
but if you really want me to …
i’d be glad to do a little more in depth research on them when i feel better :)
