Any ideas on how to make (a bit) money of money during the movement? (Or is that a morally wrong question to ask during the movement?)
Somebody has found a way: http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4003:ts8g7p.3.4
Exploitation. The American dream becomes reality.
How about T-Shirts: "Less Greed... More Weed"
Sell cheap snow hats and gloves to protesters in New York I suppose.
Well, I for one, love it. It's AMERICA. We wouldn't live here if we weren't some kind of capitalist hypocrites. I think it's the American way... wait, isn't it?
I don't remember capitalism being in the bill of rights.
By on the movement I mean about the movement not taking stuff for free nor donations.
Is selling postcards of the event a good or bad idea?
i sell occupy wall street t-shirts on the web for $28.00 and only pay $1.25 for them, no reason not to take advantage of this event. the american dream lives.
A capitalistic idea. Good one too.
Why not benefits everybody
I set up a website that takes donations for OWS, then I spend it on beer.
Is that morally wrong? Should I share the beer with other OWS people?
Please comment
This idea is you take money for a promise to spend it on OWS and then spend it on something that does not have anything to do with OWS. My idea is I don't accept free stuff or donations from the movement.
Your idea is fraud
but if are all ows then i am ows no?
no how would it be fraud?
Have you even been to ONE OWS event? You aren't OWS unless you ACTUALLY publicly occupy space in the name of the movement.
NY Baby.
Live in the hood, so I can take a dump in my own toilet and sleep under down covers every night, but otherwise, all in during the daylight hours (if its not rainy like today).
Sometimes get some hippy chick(s) to share.
You interested?
