"I'm here because I'm very tired of corporate interests controlling all the political discussion. Not being able to have a voice in government. Hopefully this will be the beginning of the rebirth of democracy in America. It's astounding how dumb the American public has become, it's frightening. People are beginning to talk and the discussion is being brought to the table now. <br />

And I love that there are no demands. This movement is rejecting the ability of this government to make changes, to make any viable change. That's a strong message. I don't know how it would happen [to change the government without using the government]. I just know that there's nothing left to do but to try something from the grassroots up. All the cogs and all the gears produced nothing. It's just astounding, it's as if we're being run by psychotic people, it's crazy. It's madness. It's nice to come here and work in the kitchen, just to clean things up here in Liberty Park among people who are thinking of possible change for the future. The spirit here cannot be beat."](https://www.edgarmata.com/img-get/I0000TyUSUTwIoyU/s/750/600/111013-0103.jpg)
