Related: About this forumHello! Found another home
I was told to introduce myself by robomail. Here it goes.
My name is Egberto Willies.
I am a political activist, author, business owner, software developer, web designer, and mechanical engineer in Kingwood, TX. I am an ardent Liberal that believes tolerance is essential. My favorite phrase is political involvement should be a requirement for citizenship.
I believe that we must get away from the current policies that reward those who simply move money/capital and produce nothing tangible for our society. If a change in policy does not occur, America will be no different than many oligarchic societies where a few are able to accumulate wealth while the rest are left out because it is mathematically impossible to catch up.
My Political Stuff:
Author of As I See It: Class Warfare The Only Resort To Right Wing Doom.
President of the Kingwood Area Democrats
Harris County Democratic Party Communication Committee Chairman
Texas Precinct 758 Chair
Board of Director of Coffee Party USA
Board Of Director of BeYourGoverment
Member of Move To Amend (MTA) Coalition Executive Committee
CNN iReporter with over a million page views.

Aerospace? Manufacturing?
I spent a number of years fabricating scientific instruments
and thrived because the engineers were top notch.
