Reply #28: This is a big part of why I'm trying to get people to start doing some research... writing essays, [View All]

etc.

If we can ALL be well-informed, and able to speak on our feet, it will ease the fear, and help us to inform others.

The RW did it in an organized way because they were backed by big$$$$$. We MUST organize it on our own. We MUST do our own research (and Ehrenreich has done so much on this!), and we MUST inform ourselves, and each other.

Then we will feel confident in speaking with others.

I had the experience last week. In a small group, someone was talking about how single-payer health care is impossible in the US. Because I had all my facts in a row, she couldn't defend her position, and it got others to thinking more clearly. Small start, but better than nothing.

Now, get those post counts up!
