We are only individual people against corporate might. When we lost the media...................we lost. I don't have any easy answers.

I think the next step for us is to limit this ALEC anti-conservation and anti-environmental action to only Ohio, and that the other states find a more successful path to defeat this frankly stupid and very greedy (on ALEC's part) vote. After the fall '14 elections, Ohio needs to come back to this vote and stomp on it hard. The people of this Nation need to get informed, vote, and know what's in their interest and what's in the 1%ers interest. This terrible act in Ohio needs to be a rally point for the Movement. We do care about the world our children and grandchildren will live in and need to act like we care.
