Has anyone heard a questioner ask these Tepublican candidates, in the new TV reality show call debates, if they'll Finally Demand Sacrifice from the Country as to their wars of choice they fully supported and their congressional representatives rubber stamped everything related to?
While they, those same in Congress, their 24/7 cable outlet called news and all their supporters, for the full terms of these ongoing wars, were condemning all those who were right about all the extremely failed policies related to!
The reality shows have been held on many different media outlets who were also extremely complicit in their support of for the past decade, only recently questioning and only a few of those.
Occupy is about the many issues facing the 99% that have greatly eroded what we once were building, and succeeding in many area's, as a society and country, as that 1% at the top have succeeded in their new capitalism of the past some thirty years. That 1%, as well as anyone with an investment account handled by a broker and not concerned where their money is invested but only in the returns, are still reaping profits from these wars, directly or indirectly.
Occupy Grand Rapids is taking a stand as related to the whole countries responsibility, this Veterans Day, a country that waves flags, condemns others for not being patriotic, uses language and symbols of phony 'support' and refuses to 'sacrifice' as the soldiers and their families who have borne that 'Sacrifice' and as many join our Veterans Ranks for the rest of their lives!
November 09, 2011 - Occupy Grand Rapids picketers plan to move out of downtown Friday to protest proposed privatization at the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, claiming those that fought for the country's freedom deserve the best care that can be offered.
In a Facebook post, the group says it will be occupying the grounds of the home, 3000 Monroe Ave. NE, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, which is Veteran's Day.
“Our veterans have fought hard and deserve to have us fight for them,” the post announcing the protest states. “Let's stand up and say we will not be held hostage by these profits before people policies.
“Tell (Gov. Rick) Snyder that we will not stand for experienced, hard working, public health care employees being replaced by inexperienced and underpaid workers. Caring for our vets is such an important job that it should be compensated with benefits and a fair living wage.” read more>>>
As to the question mentioned above. I haven't heard but then again I don't watch 'reality shows', so if someone has please inform and if you remember their answers that would help. I also haven't heard many Dems mentioning the lack of Sacrifice while some who call themselves that walk in lockstep with the obstructionist as to issues like revenues, Sacrifice, and the 'jobs bill's' or anything the Administration tries to offer up. Speaking of this Administration, they are the only ones not waving flags as they've constantly been talking about the soldiers, their families and veterans, and implementing what they can, especially the First and Second Ladies of, since coming into office. Not even so called progressive online boards or writers mention 'Sacrifice' much if at all!
