Handling Press & Specific Strategies / Solutions to Our Problems

    Sometimes slick reporters (especially from FOX) ask Occupiers questions such as "Why do you want to end the Fed?" or "What exactly would you do, to change things for the better?" and they Occupier is not sure what to say or they aren't familiar with some of the more complex issues they're hit with. There's nothing wrong with that. If you're shot, you don't need to know the specific effects of a punctured pancreas to know something is definitely wrong. But for those of you who would like to know how to put these reporters in their place, would like details of exactly how bankers and corps have taken over, and what specifically could be done to put the government back in the hands of the people and fix the economy, here is a site with several articles and some short videos that offer specifics.
