#ROBINHOOD Global March
OCTOBER 29 – #ROBINHOOD GLOBAL MARCH
Alright you rebels, redeemers and believers out there,
This Saturday October 29, on the eve of the G20 Summit in France, millions of us will hold Robin Hood marches around the world demanding that our leaders start imposing a 1% #ROBINHOOD tax on all financial transactions and currency trades. We will send them a clear message: We want you to slow down some of that $1.3-trillion easy money that's sloshing around the global casino every day – enough cash to fund every social program and environmental initiative in the world.
There are #ROBINHOOD actions currently planned in San Antonio, Las Vegas, Montreal, Vancouver, Durango, Calgary, Washington DC, Santa Fe, Denver, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Sydney, Amarillo, Edmonton, Salt Lake City, Berlin and more…
Bring it up at your general assembly … then create some edgy Robin Hood graphics for the world to digest and let's march out there millions strong in global unison this Saturday.
This could be the first delicious fruit of our movement,
for the wild,

I am suggesting one goal:
PRINT THE TRUTH about those who really control wall street, so that people do realize when John Pierpoint Morgan stated to MR UNTERMEYER that "ALL THE MONEY IN CHRISTENDOM CANNOT CONTROL MONEY" he was absolutely correct of course, for it takes also a "conspiracy" that bridges the gap between the three powers of Government the executive, judiciary and legislative powers, in order to really control actual wealth, for if that is not done, a "wicked president could take the bank down" as the seventh president indeed did!

Robinhood Tax /Tobin Tax is Not 99% Agenda but 1% Agenda . We have been Deceived
See Link
http://www.cafod.org.uk/robinhoodtax
The Robin Hood Tax campaign has been gearing up for this moment - the G20 meeting in Cannes on the 3/4 November. Please email David Cameron today asking him to be bold for the sake of the world’s poorest.
Dozens of governments are on board with the tax including Germany, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Portugal and Norway. French president Sarkozy, a keen advocate of a global Financial Transaction tax (FTT), is chairing the meeting and has put the Robin Hood Tax high on the G20 agenda.
