Sometimes we like to share letters written by some of our friends and readers. Here’s a letter written to President Barack Obama:
July 14, 2011
President Obama,
The middle class and working class has struggled for nearly a decade.
Last year, I removed my retirement account out of circulation from the stock market as a protest to Wall Streets corporate assault on the middle and working class. If you and Wall Street would like these funds reinvested, please fulfill the as promised pledges:
1. Restore Habeas Corpus
2. Close down Guantanamo Bay
3. Repeal: Citizens United vs. FEC.
4. Mandate an Executive Order to reduce fossil fuel use by 30%
5. No war with Iran…ever.
6. Remove troops, halt drone attacks, cease torture, close secret prisons and stop
occupation in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia.
7. Reduce by 50% all military funding including international allocations and
sponsorship programs.
8. Implement financial reform policies and require transparency.
9. Hold the FCC accountable to enforce truth, ethics and standards in the media
10. Investigate and try tax-paid-bailed-out Wall Street executives for crimes against
America and the world.
11. Legislate corporations to pay its fair share of taxes
Standing up to injustice is a virtue that embodies the American spirit.
Respectfully,
LM
