longnshort, Dem Senator Encourages Citizens To ‘Get Arrested’ To Save Medicaid


Sounds very appropriate to me! Masses of people in action can overrun the system and bring the money power brokers to their knees. Look what it took to get women the right to vote, minorities the same rights we have. And, an examination of history guides us to the reality that the churches perpetuated and promoted discrimination in the South. I am against all types of discrimination regardless of race, creed, national origin, or life style. I only wish that we would following the Bible principal of ""treating our neighbors as we would treat ourselves."

The only recourse is to use mass community action from a position of power, with or against those holding the money power. The judicial system, for the community organizer, is to slow and under the jurisdiction of the strongest union in the US - LAWYERS. Lawyers, certify who inner the field through each States bar examine, make up a large portion of State and Federal legislators who make the laws, must be licensed lawyer to practice in front of a lawyer judge, and be approved to practice before the Supreme Courts and appeal courts. And, all the while the poor client has to cough up the limited financial resource they may have to hire hopefully, a qualified attorney who will take the clients case. Therefore, the poor client can only receive competent representation until the money runs out unless the attorney is doing pro bono legal work.

When masses of individuals get involved in an action the media (3rd type of power) will cover the dispute event.

Kenneth, can probably explain to us where my interpretation is incorrect.

Thanks, Kenneth.
