Robin Hood Comes to DC

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)The “Robin Hood” tax – a 1% financial transaction tax designed to take small change from bankers to support those in need – is the starring attraction of tomorrow’s Occupy DC action. The local event is one of many planned around the globe to spread the word about the Robin Hood tax. Occupy DC will march from McPherson Square at 2p and head to the Treasury and Bank of America, where there will be a creative action and teach-in on the tax. Ben Kingsley appears in a very funny UK video about the Robin Hood tax; check it out here and see another great one here.
