That guy from 0:20 to 3:20 was well spoken and eloquent. I would vote for him.

@Delisle4 yes, he was quite informed. I enjoyed talking with him for the very reasons you describe.

Currently in this monetary system we are only as free as our purchasing power.

@Scoripo81 Self-sufficiency seems to be the only way out of modern-day slavery. Even some of the rich people feel guilt. When I was wealthy, I sometimes used to long to be a simple farmer who had no money to lose. Now, I see that remaining close to the land and having natural resources is and will become the new wealth.

Wow Kansas nails it. Such savvy and diverse support.

Some very well spoken people in our area! Especially the first gentleman. I'm curious, has *any* Main Stream media shown up?

[Geistesmensch]

At 5:15 I was expecting that guy to say he would eat fruit over McDonalds but he said Subway!! WTF!? lol

[januarymurray]

Ron Paul vs corporate shrills and has all the answers. Watch his videos and read his books and you will want to vote for him.

Losers. every single one of you. sad.

I watch this video & I see well intentioned people who don't understand economics. The 1st guys says they need to fund programs that help the poor...like what? like grants & student loans? Free health care? Since the gov't started offering easy tuition in 86-college has gone up 498% most everything else has gone up just 107% besides healthcare which has also gone up over 250%. Why? B/c once the gov't gets involved-costs rise. Assistance should return to only the VERY poor. Most wouldn't qualify.

@Tornado1994 Ignorant cliches. Memo: Clinton signed the repeal of the Glass Steagall Act and pushed for easy loans for home ownership, which enabled the crash that came in 2008. Yeah, read about the GS Act, cretin. You really think that it's red vs. blue, what a fucking idiot. Both "sides" were in on it but you bought the lie.

Occupy's Goal: To destroy the BUSH ECONOMIC REGIME. 1# Raise taxes on the 1%.

2# Bring back regulation on WS & the FED. Roll back ALL deregulation.

3# Create jobs that aren't outsourced.

4#. End this "Citizens United"USSC trash that lets big corporations buy elections.

Join the fight: DIE BUSH ECONOMY DIE!
