Subject: Re: [september17discuss] can we try to come up with one demand?

Date: Wednesday, September 28, 2011 7:16:52 PM

I disagree, the dictatorship of financial capital and corporate power over people'sdaily lives is a much more complex affair than ousting a dictator. There is no one

demand that will solve this issue, because financial capital is entangled with peopledaily lives much more than we think. Workers' pension funds, state and federalbudgets are now attached to the stock market.

Further, in this country millions of people have their savings invested in equities.Even more, thanks to the end of the separation between commercial banking andinvestment banking, all our savings are invested on the stock market even when wedon't choose to. If you think the money you see (or don't see) on your bank accountare real, you are dreaming. They are all pumped in the stock market to keep thevampire alive, and they could vanish overnight, as this trader, Alessio Rastani,candidly put it a couple of days ago on BBC News:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC19fEqR5bA

This is the reason why reintroducing Glass-Steagall would be a very importantmeasure. I have posted several sensible demands to this list several times, but everyday or so this conversation begins anew... Saying "We want a democracy, not acorporatocry" will not solve any of these issues. This is a delusional stance and evenif the movement keeps growing, eventually it will have to face the question of whatpolitical demands to articulate, what are its priorities, what kind of alliances tomake, etc. At the moment, there is no real political discussion going on and t thislack of ideas and debate will have a negative impact in the long run.

Again, these are seven points I think we should begin with:

- Stop gambling people's savings on Wall Street. Reinstate the 1933 Glass-Steagall

Act that separates investment banking from commercial banking.

- Corporations are not and will never be people. End corporate personhood under the

14th Amendment.

- Tax all financial transactions as we tax all salable goods through. Introduce a global

tax on all financial transactions now.

- Housing is a human right. Halt all foreclosures due to predatory lending and unpaid

medical bills.



- Ban all corporate funding to political candidates. Enable each taxpayer and citizen

to donate the same amount of money to a candidate or party of his or her choice.

Well thats a fine Idea but only works if there are enough people. 100 is NOTenough. More need to feel inspired and get behind it. I keep getting asked what its

about. we need a firm answer. OTHER then "we are the 99" (which is a goodmessage, but if you repeat it to often you end up sounding like Borg.

They are all pumped in the stock market to keepthe vampire alive, and they could vanish overnight, as this trader,

Alessio Rastani, candidly put it a couple of days ago on BBC News:


This is the reason why reintroducing Glass-Steagall would be a veryimportant measure. I have posted several sensible demands to this listseveral times, but every day or so this conversation begins anew...

Saying "We want a democracy, not a corporatocry" will not solve anyof these issues. This is a delusional stance and even if the movementkeeps growing, eventually it will have to face the question of whatpolitical demands to articulate, what are its priorities, what kind ofalliances to make, etc. At the moment, there is no real politicaldiscussion going on and t this lack of ideas and debate will have anegative impact in the long run.


- Stop gambling people's savings on Wall Street. Reinstate the 1933

Glass-Steagall Act that separates investment banking from commercialbanking.

- Corporations are not and will never be people. End corporate

personhood under the 14th Amendment.
