Act Out! [86] - Support Troops not Veterans, Blue is Blood Red, Going Green & Appease Me
Wed, 11/2/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week, you may have heard that thousands of veterans got hosed by the military industrial complex. W mell, here are the details, what we can expect, and what one Army veteran has to say about the latest in a long string of lies and bottom-line crimes. Next up, activist and Green Party Senatorial candidate Arn Menconi digs in to the two-party system — and why he's not mincing words in the streets or in the halls of the mighty oligarchy. And finally: can you be appeased?
