Main Street Fix For Wall Street Failure

Attended an Occupy meeting last night in Hudson - those attending, many from Philmont, were asked to talk about what they "are for" -  some interesting answers are being documented at TSL Time Space Limited which I'm sure will eventually end up on an exhibition wall at TSL  - go check out a meeting - POT LUCK next Monday at 6pm - TSL if you want to add your few cents to the lively discussion.    In the meantime -check out this insightful report on how your Main St. in Philmont can be a fix for a Wall St economy that is no longer serving the needs of the 99%
