Wake Up, Read Up, Speak Up at SpokeUp.com -- Let's Be Heard

As I've been so vocal and adamant against all the forms of corporate welfare (you can call it "bailouts" if you want), I've gotten one question over and over as these two real quotes from my blog comments asked:

"What should we do about it?"

"What are you, we, going to do about all this?"

So many people write to me saying they feel that, now more than ever, they don't have a voice as Congress and the Republicans/Democrats ignore the overwhelmingly unanimous wishes of the body politic. Fact is though, I've long noted that Internet enables us to prove Orwell wrong -- that it can and should be Little Brother Watching You...watching Big Brother.

It starts now -- http://www.SpokeUp.com

You can read up on what politically- and socially-active people are reading, watch videos from YouTube that they're watching and surf the site to get a sense of what people are really thinking about the times we're living in. Or you can sign up for free to become part of the community and Speak Up yourself.

Here's just one example of what people are speaking up about on SpokeUp.com that you can read and join in on:

Chicago FED Says Take Interest Rates Below 0 and Monetize Debt

You can visit my home page, where I feature funny financial or political videos and talk about things like my FBN feature, "Where's My Money?!" -- http://spokeup.com/pg/profile/cody

You can also check out the fan club pages for Happy Hour, Cavuto, America's Nightly Scoreboard, or the Dave Ramsey Show.

The upshot is we wanna affect some positive change. Let's be heard indeed.

PS. Full disclosure: I'm the founder of the company that built SpokeUp.com.
