What you're saying is that people would actually have to give a damn and get out and vote.

And what if the "99%" voted to nationalize everything and take all the money from the greedy 1%?

Not saying that would happen, just being theoretical.

Would that really be a good thing? Or would the majority of the "99%" prove or disprove that they belonged in the lower rungs? In other words would they run the whole thing into the ground?

I guess it couldn't be a whole lot worse than the corruption, greed, and crazy ass deficit spending that goes on in Washington D.C. today.

My feeling is that would be step one: Vote out EVERYONE. Let real citizens start serving in Congress and The Senate like it was originally intended. Not just rich lawyers.
