Charlie Rose just posted an interesting discussion:
Not bad, one of the better ones so far.
I've decided to start collecting short, pithy phrases that I want in my Open/Occupy world. (And yes, I do believe Open and Occupy are on the same page and EFF is as important as SNCC)
Here's two:
1 - Free Bachelor's Degrees
This is a simple way to help close the economic divide. Stanford's classes are absolutely mind blowing. I hope some of us take part in the next dozen.
2 - A Democratic primary
Avoid politics as usual, and in particular, the idea that the incumbent party has no need for to reconsider their direction. I think Obama needs to stand again, to see if we really want to back him, or possibly someone else. As a subset, I'd like everyone to be able to vote in all primaries.
Could you let me know your VERY SHORT phrases, with a paragraph of insight?
