Way to go Jeremy

[kersteinkrew]

Thank YOU Jeremy, Your song is wonderful.

[beancube2010]

Remember we lost a baby in Occupy Seattle. A female protester yelled she was pregnant when the riot police come at the protest, but she got kicked at her belly by a rage riot police and pepper sprayed closely on her face while his colleagues holding her face. We are angry. We are really angry about those riot police. We won't forget about this.

[brocoli306]

The 99%'s please.You went along with their crimes as long as they paid the checks.That pretty much puts you on the wrong side of history, and no amount of folksy singing is going to buy your souls back imho,

[eyewall41]

@brocoli306 LOL are you sure about that? Most never even knew the crimes were taking place until they were already committed. By then it was too late. I don't feel asking for accountability for those responsible is too much to ask. I feel my soul is very much in tact as I was wondering where these demonstrations were from the time the 2008 bailouts were announced. The Justice Department used "prosecutorial discretion" to let the banksters get away with the fraud committed.

[rimbaud108]

@brocoli306 What a foolish comment. Most of us have been protesting injustice all of our lives. Not everything is about money you know - at least for some of us - obviously not you.

[jamessolstice]

Really liked your song. The times we live in...

Check out my video/song on the same topic "Dear Mr President (Wake Up!)"

[OffbeatUrban]

IF ALL MIDDLE CLASS AND LOWER CLASS AMERICANS JUST STOP WORKING ALL TOGETHER AND BASICALLY JUST HAVE A SIT DOWN LIKE GANDHI... THIS COUNTRY WOULD SHUT DOWN AND THE TOP 1% AND ALL POLITICIANS WOULD HAVE NO OTHER WAY BUT TO LISTEN AND MAKE THE CHANGES THE PEOPLE WANT! THE PEOPLE OWN AMERICA AND WE CAN MAKE THEM CHANGE BECAUSE WITHOUT US THEY HAVE NOTHING! DONT EVER FORGET THAT PEOPLE... WITHOUT US THEY GOT NOTHING!

[Theozzie11]

"occupy wall street" is a govt plan to distract us from the real problem......killer bees...yes i said it, killer bees will destroy America if we don't act NOW

[AnastassiaCMF]

It's so sweet. I feel like crying. Also, I think that the person with the sign that said "It's not a crisis, it's a scam" is right on.

[1Muggerfugger]

Great tune, thanks.

Not a musician but I am so inspired by OWS that I wrote one too.

Check out "Occupy everything and don't stop!" here on YouTube.

[19EHF]

@HOUSTONBG10 I AGREE. I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT AND IF THERE WAS AN OCCUPY MOVEMENT ON CAMPUS I WOULD JOIN. IN THE 60'S YOUNG AMERICANS PROTESTED RACIAL INEQUALITY. NOW YOUNG AMERICANS OF 2011 ARE PROTESTING ECONOMIC INEQUALITY. AMERICA IS THE 99%.

[Stew501187]

I'm a 24 year old Army soldier. I VOLUNTEERED to deploy to a foreign country so I could afford to support my family. I HAVE NOT BEEN PAID TWICE because the GOVT decided the soldiers (who already live check to check) would be ok waiting to get paid. If not for USAA (An amazing bank WHO PAID US INSTEAD OF THE GOVT!!) I would have screwed my credit even more. My wife and I can't afford a house, we live with my dad now. I fear I wont find work when I come home.

I AM THE 99%

[eyewall41]

@Stew501187 You are very much a part of the 99%. We can't do it without the vets and you deserve far better!

[Stew501187]

@eyewall41 I dont want better, I want to be able to support myself and my family. I want the American people to be able to sustain themselves! I dont fight b/c I want to I am a soldier for my country and the people and our constitution! I wish I were financially stable enough to even consider running for a government office when I come home. Correct some wrongdoings! End pointless spending! End price inflation for the sake of a little more profit!

[eyewall41]

@Stew501187 I understand and part of this is you should be able to hold office without being rich.

[RobMillerNow]

@Stew501187 USAA is the best! Everybody should switch to a local credit union and USAA Bank (which is now available to everyone) and away from BofA, Chase, Wells Fargo and Citi..!!

[GastO1]

@Stew501187 show it to them be a soldier for the 99%

[niceguy1060]

@Stew501187 my heart goes out to you brother....keep the faith

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 You volunteered to be used like a tool, to murder people in foreign lands, you fought and killed for the 1%

You dont deserve recognition as either, you deserve to be dead for the the part you played.

[Stew501187]

@AliTheBrit19 As a murderer I'd gladly execute my skills on you.

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 Please do, you'd be proving my point, thats all you are and worth as a person - you where probably a moron in high school huh?

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 An admitted murderer and "Republican/Tea party" under your Political views, sounds to me you only care about this stuff now it PERSONALLY fucked you over, but you couldn't care less before that? you really do sound like scum

If I grew up, and my father told me, he signed himself up to fight in what everyone knew to be a bullshit war for me, I'd feel nothing but shame, go fucking kill yourself.

[Stew501187]

@AliTheBrit19 Yea and what do you do? sit around and cry that you haven't been given enough? grow a pair and do something with yourself. While you are at home on food stamps and welfare I'll be making 120k a yr to deploy for 6 months at a time. My degree is almost done and then I'm a shoe in to work for the govt and its all because of sacrifices I've made. My school is free, my housing is free, my food is free. It's a pretty good trade off.

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 I don't sit around crying about not been given enough, although times are hard its a world wide thing and on a daily basis I find myself thinking about how lucky I have it compared to the standards of living in other parts of the world.

I'm going to get through life just fine, and keep my god damn integrity which is more than can be said for you, they need morons like you, empty vessels they can instruct how to behave, shitting, cussin' robots. enjoy being the 1%'s pawn.

[Stew501187]

@AliTheBrit19 Ha! I just realized what's wrong with you.. You're an idiot. The immage you have of soldiers are from TV and movies. How do you think for one second I have no integrity? In the military, at any point, any order can be denied by anyone if it is unethical, illegal or immoral and every one of my soldiers are smart enough to do that. Shitting yes; cussing sometimes; robots not so much. And as far as being the pawn of the 1%, eh big deal..

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 Its the opposite, here on TV they are viewed as heroes, in the UK next to nobody has anything bad to say about our Soldiers, and I dont view that TV 10oclock news bullshit.

And oh you protect people do you? cool, so the US army protects 1 man then the next day murders 10, and I'm more than aware British soldiers are no better, and oh I'm sure you can do what you want, thats why there's a list of rape/murder cases for Iraq/Afghan.

[Stew501187]

@AliTheBrit19 Every military ha bad apples like every church has one pedophile you cant lump everyone together. Propaganda is just that propaganda but you really need to read a book or two or actually talk to a soldier about what he's done. No soldier wants to take a life but if it comes down to it..it's you or me and I'll choose me every time. And ignorant dimwit? yea just about every E5 or above has at least a BA or higher. The Army will screw soldiers sometimes, it happens

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 In the same sense, did you know the US funded the group later renamed as Al-Quada, with Osama at the time still being head, with BILLIONS of US tax dollars, in the late 80's, they where then known as mujahideen, they also called the Taliban freedom fighters, when fighting the invading soviets, but when its fighting YOU, the beacon of all that is holy and good in the world, the US of shitty A, they're evil terrorists right?

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 And I KNOW you have no integrity, you where likely an ignorant dimwit who they easily convinced he was doing good, bringing democracy to people, protecting them from evil insurgents blah blah propaganda bullshit you eat up and believe so you can sleep at night.

And the biggest irony of all is, you now defend the Army even though they didn't pay you for your crimes against humanity.

1.2 Million, Iraq alone, as of 2006, those are innocent civilians, you helped.

[Stew501187]

@AliTheBrit19 Big deal it pays the bills, I have an opportunity to make something of myself and have a career, yes it's hard, yes I get sent around the world, but not all deployments are to kill and fight.Some are to protect and ensure people are okay and help people. Sometimes we are sent to places to save lives.You don't see that on TV because that's not convenient nor does it get people's attention.Even though I am an interrogator by profession, doesn't mean I can't help people

[AliTheBrit19]

@Stew501187 Nope, 2 Grandfathers and Grandmother played a big part in WW2, couldn't be prouder, I still have Uniforms, medals etc. - That was a real war, and they WHERE protecting their country, it was fight or be invaded. We both know when you're patrolling the middle east, you aren't protecting anyone, you're no better than a PMC, a career made from being a hired killer.

[AnarchadiaSyria]

@Stew501187 Support from Syria with heart and mind

[raccoonpoet]

We the people, will not allow our Freedoms to be taken by multi-national corporations. If not us, who? If not now, when?

[eyewall41]

@raccoonpoet right on! :)

[CeeLoneous]

I'm so proud of you, Jeremy. I have been ill since the protests started and the stills and videos fill me with both hope and dismay. Hope because we've not remained silent but dismay from viewing the police brutality and knowing that the media are doing only what their corporate sponsors and who ever is really in charge of this country is having them do. As I starve in my "middle class" neighborhood I worry for my country & my daughter's future because education here has become an afterthought.

[eyewall41]

@CeeLoneous Thank you! The song is the best I can do short of being there myself.

[CeeLoneous]

@eyewall41 Maybe if I had health insurance I wouldn't be suffering so and I could contribute more. Maybe this is all part of the evil plan. "They" have taken away education, health insurance and have made it so we cannot afford our homes or food, therefore keeping the majority weak. I hope your song goes around the world and back!! Thank YOU so much!

[eyewall41]

@CeeLoneous Thank you and yeah that is truly a crime that you have to go through that!

[conchf]

(Typo from previous post) Great song. Yes, Occupy is on the right side of history. Anyone that DOESN'T get this, hasn't been paying attention.....

[eyewall41]

@conchf Thank you it is very much appreciated!

[conchf]

Great song. Yes, Occupy is on the right side of history. Anyone that does get this hasn't been paying attention.

[eyewall41]

@conchf RIght on! Thank you and you are correct!
