Fortunately, there are now OWS protests in various cities around the country and even the world. Soon we will start to see these protests popping up in small towns too. But still, not everyone will be able to make it. But not to worry you can still protest from home.<\/p>\n<p>I should stress that there really is no substitute for going to one of the protests, so if you can protest, you should protest. However, if you can\u2019t (like in my case my wife is about to have a baby any minute) I have two ideas to pass on to you today and a third idea which I created and will share tomorrow (assuming my wife hasn\u2019t had the baby yet).<\/p>\n<p>First, we have to fight money with money. So if you have some money please consider donating some to the Occupy effort or to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wolf-pac.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wolf-PAC<\/a>. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wolf-pac.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wolf-PAC<\/a> was set up by Cenk Ugyer of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theyoungturks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Young Turks<\/a> to create a grassroots movement to force a Constitutional Convention so that we can create an amendment to the Constitution that would end corporate personhood. I\u2019ll let Cenk explain it:<br \/>\n<object width=\"430\" height=\"248\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/ykLB0d4KNAc?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed width=\"430\" height=\"248\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/ykLB0d4KNAc?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>The second idea was present to me a few days ago and I think it is pretty brilliant.
