I saw Anthony Metzmeier who is a Homeless man living in the woods in Brandon. I stopped and talked a little while with him and he had many questions as to why I am spending my time making these videos. My answer is simply that if I am able to do this and give others a way to be heard than I am doing my part.

Saturday In Tampa

After bailouts and free passes from the government, big Wall Street banks are suddenly being held accountable by the American people.

Tens of thousands of bank customers have pledged to move their money out of the big banks and into the small banks and credit unions that are actually investing in our communities. This Saturday in Tampa we tell the big banks—and our government—no more free passes for damaging our economy.
