J.A. Myerson, Truthout: ''During Wednesday morning rush hour, signs hung in at least eight New York subway stations, inviting straphangers to ride for free. In Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan, service gates were chained open and turnstiles taped up 'in a coordinated response ... to escalating service cuts, fare hikes, racist policing, assaults on transit workers' working conditions and livelihoods and the profiteering of the super-rich by way of a system they have rigged in their favor.'''

Ninety-Nine Percent Spring and Confronting Corporate Power

George Goehl, Truthout: ''For us to truly reorganize our economy, we have to challenge those that most benefit from the current structure, big and abusive corporations that consistently violate values of fairness, human dignity and conservation. To challenge institutions the size of Bank of America, Walmart, Wells Fargo, Verizon, Chevron, Hyatt, and others, we know we can t do it alone. The good news is we don't have to.''
