i am not just here to tell you that times have changed, that the political landscape has shifted. those leaders that do not stand with the working families will be swept away. finally, i just wanted to save what i really came to tell you about. occupy san francisco has finally raised the issue of the most precious of the 99%, the schoolchildren of san francisco who are denied adequate resources because the 1% simply refuses to pay their fair share. thank you, supervisor.
