7. Get money out of politics;

The Justice Party platform is still evolving and YOU can shape the agenda by joining the discussion at: http://americanidea.justicepartyusa.net. One thing is certain: this Party is not selling out to corporate interests. Campaign donations are limited to $100 per election cycle.
On economic and fiscal policy: Rocky Anderson supports increased tax on investment income; immediately ending the Bush tax cuts; cutting defense spending significantly; offering tax incentives to firms who hire US workers and disincentives to those that don't; splitting up too big to fail banks; and he opposes hiring ex-financial executives as advisors to the president on economic policy.
What a glorious difference Rocky Anderson would make in the White House in contrast to the current array of antisocial contenders including the Wall Street lackey masquerading as a Democrat. As Glen Greenwald so succinctly put it:
"Obama has embraced the vast bulk of George Bush's terrorism policies ; waged a war against government whistleblowers as part of a campaign of obsessive secrecy; led efforts to overturn a global ban on cluster bombs; extinguished the lives not only of accused terrorists but of huge numbers of innocent civilians with cluster bombs and drones in Muslim countries; engineered a covert war against Iran; tried to extend the Iraq war; ignored Congress and the Constitution to prosecute an unauthorized war in Libya; adopted the defining Bush/Cheney policy of indefinite detention without trial for accused terrorists; and even claimed and exercised the power to assassinate US citizens far from any battlefield and without due process."
So it looks like police raids didn't get rid of the Occupy Movement after all. An idea whose time has come cannot be annihilated with pepper spray, mass arrests and police tactics. Ideas are invincible. The compelling idea of government BY, FOR and OF the People is sweeping the world ~ not as an idealistic luxury but as a profoundly critical necessity. That aspiration has found expression in a new American political party that serves the PUBLIC interest -- with an ETHICAL candidate for President. The consciousness of Occupy Wall Street has found a permanent home.
Our time has come.
