More on OWS doing what some folks understand as political

The Citizens United Supreme Court case has opened the flood gates of dirty corporate money influencing our elections to benefit the 1% and even foreign corporations can spend UNLIMITED money on elections. It is unbelievable and one of the worst changes to have surfaced in years. But what can we do?

Well, I just got news that there is a California Initiative to change our state constitution and remove corporate personhood for good. Take a look at the actual law proposed: http://ag.ca.gov/cms_attachments/initiatives/pdfs/i998_...

Do we want to help gather signatures for this initiative?

Yup... fully and completely non working with the political system...

(I expect some fireworks, and hopefully not a posting error)

Join us this Thursday at 2p on the steps of San Diego City Hall (202 C St), as Occupy San Diego files our Free Speech Ballot Proposal with the City Clerk. OCCUPY SAN DIEGO
