Look now that you have the spotlight, use it wisely. Nobody want's to watch a bunch of people hanging out at a park. You need to take the occupy movement out of the parks, and straight to the lobbiest offices. These cockroaches will scatter when faced with a camera leaving the politition holding the bag of bribe money. You all need to use the internet to find out who these lobbyist offices are. Then you need to follow them around, and find out who they visit. There are lots of people in your organization that have some spare time. After all they are sitting in a park. You need to document this on video, and with written documentation. Then you need a web site where you can post all this stuff. How about ambush interviews with polititions and their lobbiests. It would make for some excellent YouTube video. But really, you need to take this attention and do something useful with it, or the spotlight will fade away, and focus on something more interesting.

Fall of Capitalism/Secularism PREPARATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ECONOMIC MODEL As the capitalist, acting as promoter/administrator, invests a minimal/nominal amount of his own in the business (obtaining major funding at concessional interest rates) but is entitled to retain full profit and be liable, in the case of loss, only to the extent of his share holding, the underlying system is inherently oppressive and unjust. It is, therefore, time to introduce a new ECONOMIC MODEL for replacing the secular codes of capitalism which, due to its irrational structure, stands grounded since the very beginning of the 21st century.

The banks secure deposits from the general public against promise to pay interest at fixed rates without guaranteeing the face value of the pertinent currency prevailing in the international market at the time the money was deposited. In case, therefore, of devaluation of currency, the depositors lose the net worth of their deposits to the extent of devaluation. As happened with the US $, while 87 cents of a $ were equal to one Euro in 2001, $ 1.4925 is equal to one Euro today. Practically, thus the $ has lost 58.29% of original worth. All this is a result of credit based economy and loan based investment.

As far as the war on terror is concerned, its real cost has been passed on to the countries with US Dollar - based reserves or currencies but, interestingly, the currencies of most European NATO members were, in the year 2000, delinked from the Dollar by floating the Euro as a common EU currency.

It's the location of the Charging Bull and a very apt place to get this started.

I really appreciate the idea of this protest & feel it is exactly where it needs to be..I am concerned, however it is being born from an entitled, educated, largely white class of people. I hope I am wrong, but it is just my take on what I have read. Those in charge would be wise to recruit from community leaders in Harlem, Queens, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, even Baltimore & D.C. I have read nothing from leaders in these communities & it is there where you will find the numbers to give you the strength you need. If 20,000 can stay till Tuesday, 20,000 more will come...if that happens, then anything is possible...it's all about numbers...If you can keep it up till Tuesday, I will see you there

The fact is that you guys can snapp their fingers and produce 200,000 people in a day. The tea baggers are luckey if they get 100 people if they schedule it a week in advance.
