I'm staving, I'd get a wheels on meals, if gas wasn't so expensive.
You could ride your bike down the road, I'm sure there's a wheels on meals around here somewhere.
Yea, lets bike over to the canopy road by the park. I've seen one there everyday, and they're guaranteed to be fresh, and peanut feed.
Damn, there ain't nothing like slow food, to kill your hunger pangs.

A belief that political miracles are achieved by sheer will force. Proponents of the Green Lantern Theory have attributed failure and compromise to a lack of presidential willpower. Matthew Yglesias came up with the Green Lantern Theory of Geopolitics* to ridicule conservatives who claimed "the only thing limiting us is a lack of willpower" in foreign policy. The Green Lantern Theory was later applied to the Obama Administration who seemed to lack the will power to make the radical changes in policy such as universal health care, lowering medical costs, banking reform, and peaceful negotiations that people had hoped for., especially after the Republicans took over the US House in 2011.
Bernie supporters are big proponents of Green Lanternism and fail to recognize this kind of “Presidentmania” where the President can get anything done if he really wanted to, fails to take into account the significant amount of bureaucracy legal barriers, and the number players the president has to deal with such as legislators, special interests and Jurists who often do everything in their power to block the president from making these achievements.

Twitter name given to Trump, after he suggested using a disinfectant for treatment of COVID-19. Trump made this suggestion after getting a letter from Mark Grenon who told Trump that chlorine dioxide – a powerful bleach used in industrial processes – is “a wonderful detox that can kill 99% of the pathogens in the body” and that it ... “can rid the body of Covid-19”. Because chlorine dioxide can have fatal side-effects when ingested the manufacturers of commercial products with chlorine dioxide held press conferences telling people not to use the product to treat disease and to contact medical professionals when sick.

The Occupy Wall Street movement's premise is that only the people can take back control of the democracy and reinstitute social justice and equality. The movement is in response to the mean spirited and greedy plutocrats who not only control the outcome of the elections but the votes in Congress, Court decissions, and the actions of the President. Occupy Wall Street Movement is based in part on the Arab Spring in which the people took to the streets and seized control of the countries that were ruled by dictators. While it started on Wall Street it has spread rapidly to Main Streets throughout the USA.
The Occupy Wall Street movement wants to make sure Wall Street shakers and fakers are held accountable for the illegal activities that contributed to the Great Recession. They want to change the incentive systems in capitalism to favor society as a whole, instead of the greed and contempt of a few.

It is amazing in the day of high speed communications that it takes three weeks for the Occupy Wall Street movement to get from the social media and street to the corporate media. Even more amazing is how the movements clear message of social and equal justice can be distorted by the corporate media.

When you illegally exclude people from consideration because of their personal political and spiritual and economic beliefs.
Monica could you please explain your employment practices.
Yes, we have affirmative reaction. We exclude everyone who will not agree with us on every decision. We want some one who will not question bad judgement and illegal activities. This is a very open policy, many of these people are highly unqualified, and who would not normally be hired.
