173. I believe pressure should come from outside and put pressure on
both existing parties. I have pushed for the Boomers to rise and make the politicians toe the line. OWS seems to be rising. Both parties must be held accountable and "scared" into doing what is right for the vast majority of Americans. How that "scaring" comes about is the issue. OWS must participate in voting and lawmaking to have a real effect. We have seen that some politicians will say anything to get elected and then serve the corporations. This insures the pols financial future. This must stop. IMO.
