The Occupy and D.C. protesters are True Patriots and should wear tri-cornered hats
Oct10
How un-American: torture, immoral wars, vote fixing, imprisonment without trial, handouts and taxbreaks for billionaires, desecration of the environment, government for the corporations, theocratic combining of church and state, free trade agreements that ship jobs overseas, etc.
The protesters in D.C. and on Wall Street are true patriots and should adorn themselves with tri-colored hats and other symbols of the Revolutionary War era.
Tricorne hat (from Wikipedia)
The three corners of the tricorne hat represent:
1. Peace (an end to militarism)
2, Economic Justice (especially fair taxation)
3. Good government (adequate regulation and an end to corruption)
Progressives are the True Patriots and should market themselves that way.
We the People:
An Alternative to Capitalism (if the people knew about it, they would demand it)
Several decades ago, Margaret Thatcher claimed: “There is no alternative”. She was referring to capitalism. Today, this negative attitude still persists.
I would like to offer an alternative to capitalism for the American people to consider. Please click on the following link. It will take you to an essay titled: “Home of the Brave?” which was published by the Athenaeum Library of Philosophy:
