And So It Begins...

An idea can come to a person at strange times or divine times. Newton was hit on the head with an apple before defining gravity. On the opposite side of the spectrum, I hatched this idea whilst sitting on the couch, waiting for resumes to be answered, calls to be returned and reading about mass unemployment and how broken our current political system is. I remember, it wasn't so long ago that a great leader made an earth shaking speech about forming 'a more perfect union'. I believe that he was speaking to the general population, not the wealthy banking cartel that have seemed to taken the spotlight ever since.

My idea is simple. Go to Washington and sit on the Capital Lawn until meaningful reform is passed. Well it sounds simple but in reality it will take dedication and organization. This is not a protest or to be done out of spite. It is a mere demonstration of the frustration that Americans are feeling on Main Street. After all, this has been labeled by some as a jobless recovery. In that case maybe the jobless part of it needs to be internalized by the suits in Washington D.C.

It might take some time and dedication. But if you are unemployed, what the hell else are you doing? If enough people show up, with the correct intention .. True Change can be initialized.
