Seize a Vacant House Today

Isn’t “Occupy Our Homes,” taking place today, the very heart of all the current messay political movements, where left and right can come together? After all, it kicks that sweet spot composed of libertarian anti-tax legal technicalities and loopholes, a conservative “get off my land” American ethos, and the liberal and leftist anti-corporate, anti-big-bank-bullies vision of freedom. Plus, it’s got an actual “real America” vibe — not just for “coastal elites”! (Coastal elites are renters, and no one cares about them when they get evicted due to someone else’s foreclosure. Though New Yorkers can take the 3 train to Brownsville at 1 p.m. today! “Bring housewarming gifts and food to share!”) From Fayetteville to St. Louis to Southgate, this is perhaps something you could get behind.
