Well, the Pentagon gave us the Internet, so you know at least part of them has our humanity at heart. Hivemindedness is a form of love not seen since the heady days of August 1968, the year they arrested Abbie and the 8 (7) for their thoughts. Can you dig? Abbie once tried to levitate the Pentagon and negotiated how high he'd lift it with P officials. So they gave us the Internet as a reward. Thanks a lot, Abbie. See you soon.

We need those pocket aquifers. No, not that Donny. Give us the aquifer or we'll go all Occupy on your ass.


Teach People How to Live In Caves Again

Oh yeah, it's coming. Time to move to Cappadocia. Especially young and feminist women.

If you stay 'here' then men -- the evil men who ended civilization -- have plans for you that will give you the willies. And them, too.

I'll treat you right though in Cappadocia. Underground cities are already there. We will start a matriarchal utopian society. Like at Ã?atalhà ¶yuk. Yeah, that's what we'll do. What are you gonna do, say, no?


Reparations

First, see my poem, "What Would Abbie Do?" Catch the vibe, man.

Then, end slavery everywhere. Let that be our new manifest destiny.


Minimum Income Per Month for Everybody in the 99%

Luxury Tax the Richest

Treat the 1% racket like baseball or the like. Anything over a certain threshold, say $100 million a year, gets taxed. Proceeds go to the above.

Or we go all Mr. Robot on their asses and take everything. Ethical hackers and such. Or we could just wait for them outside and roll them in the alley.


Encourage a Final Showdown

Stage a massive Waterloo type face-off on a battlefield, winner-take-all, and, when all the warriors are assembled to rumble, drop a f*cking gay bomb on the whole lot. Yes, I'm serious. And watch the festivities begin. It might be a real hoot to see the new minority heteros picked on for a change.
