I want to hear from EVERYONE what THEIR ideas are what their dreams are for change. I love all this inspiration and passion and I want to make sure it doesn't just dissipate after the physical occupation eventual comes to an end. The kind of work we have as a community won't happen over night it will happen over time.
SO JOIN the THINK TANK and share your ideas. I want to hear about how you would run the country how you'd balance the budget how you'd do away with the budget. The only rule is that you have to back it up. What are some potential things that could work? Let's have a discussion about how we make LONG TERM change. We need to go back to valuing compassion over greed.
Email your ideas and thoughts on key steps to change and potential solutions to the many problems at hands to
occupywallstreet.thinktank@gmail.com
Let's make sure that we come together and harness the incredible power that all of theses individual thinking minds have and start to come up with real things to be implemented.
I will publish These solutions and thoughts on progress at
occupywallstreetthinktank.tumblr.com
Join, PARTICIPATE and elevate your ideas to a national discussion about the true american dream and future of our country.
Some key issues: Education reform, Tax Code Reform, New Banking Systems, Social Program Overhaul, Healthcare,
..the whole of Wall street should not be condemmed for the acts of some. Corruption is not exclusive to Wall Street, hello. A meaningful movement with purpose is great and noble but chaos never solves anything. Rampage through the streets without a solid understanding aganist those they condem actually contribute to the problem rather than solve it. (evil) Inspiration for the better GOOD, is a noble motivator but not enough substance. Although the purpose and goals for Occupy Wall Street remains unclear, the "reasoning" appears to be the state of unemployment in addition to all the other American issues that have gone sour,..I seriously suggest this group to educate themselves with Wall Street first. If it weren't for Wall Street, there wouldn't be any jobs!!!!
Occupy Wall Street's concerns (not to be simply dismissed) apparently mirror concerns all Americans are experiencing. The most informed, peaceful and effective movement out there is the Tea Party. Occupy Wall Street consist of young college students who "think they know" but really don't. This group would be so helpful to involve themselves with the Tea Party instead. They would mature into understanding and truly contribute to prosperous change.
Thanks for creating a general space for thinking, dialogue, and working. We need to somewhat separate thinking, talking, and workign through things before rushing into action. Through the rankings the cream does seem to rise to the top. We need a process for capturing the wisdom and creativity of individuals. So many of us have been working, waiting and hoping for a way to participate in public life again.
