Demonstrators promised to be back and hold more protests with creative strategies in getting the message out. "This crisis is occurring because this system of capitalism is broken and you can't fix the housing crisis and 11 to 20 percent unemployment in California by handing over 10 trillion dollars to the banks which exacerbated this crisis. You do, however, make change by handing that money over to working and poor people who can make decisions on fiscal spending based on people's real needs, not profit. We will be bringing back the strategies of activists and communities in the 1930's depression and there will be no business as usual - On To May 1st," said John Parker from the Bail Out the People Movement.
