DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DAY!   NOV. 7!   TWITTER IPO DAY!\nOn the Day of Twitter’s 
 Début in the Stock Market,\nProtest their theft of $56 million in City 
 Revenue.\nProtest Their Part in Jacking Up Rents Out of Reach.\nBe There!  
 Thursday, November 7, 12 Noon\nTwitter Building, 1355 Market (at 10th 
 Street)\nMore Information: Tony Robles, tony@sdaaction.org\n\nWe invite 
 you, your organization and members to join to rally and demonstrate against 
 Twitter and all of the tech companies who are prospering in the backs of 
 San Franciscans. (Flyer will follow, but please spread the word now.)\n\nOn 
 November 7th, Twitter (one of the big tech companies in SF and the dictator 
 of the Payroll Tax Exemption ordinance) will publicly sell its Initial 
 Public Offerings, IPOs, on the NY Stock Exchange. They expect to make a 
 killing of billions off this latest tech bubble.\n\nFor Twitter, for the 
 high-tech industry, for the real-estate business, and for big busi-ness’s 
 highly-paid servants in City Hall, this is a day of celebration, almost 
 like an English coronation.  For us, who are having our City services cut 
 and are being thrown out of our homes, this should be day of anger and 
 public demonstrations. Rather than have our noses rubbed in this crap, 
 let’s fling it back!\n\nWith Twitter alone, the City is losing about $56 
 million of revenue dollars (doubled to what the City projected in 2011) 
 that could go towards public services like childcare, clinics, after-school 
 programs, City College, free MUNI fast-passes for all youth. This does NOT 
 include tax payers, actual spending on the Twitter bus that was allocated 
 from the MTA budget to transport Twitter employees "safely and 
 conveniently" from their office building to the CalTrain station and the 
 increase police foot traffic around their building. The once vibrant, 
 diverse and affordable City we love and had defended for decades is now 
 displacing poor, low-income, middle class, professionals and workers 
 because our City officials had priorities companies needs/greed before 
 people.\n\nRead “Twitter's IPO could cost San Francisco $56 million in
