Forum Post: Let Our Money Do The Talking - Literally

Occupy our money. Corporations talk with money, why can't the 99%? They can censor mainstream media, but the only way they can censor money is to pull it out of the system. Last year the supreme court ruled that money is free speech. Let's start writing "occupy wall street" on all our paper bills before we spend them. Money is free speech. How does this idea sound?

I love this idea. I suggest putting more than just "occupy wall street" on each bill.

Right now, I am thinking I will write "End plutocracy: occupy wall st.org" on my bills.

That sounds like a great idea.

I saw someone on Facebook do this today and posted a photo of the dollar bill.

Agreed, this is excellent idea, but start the war against Injustice by starting our own banks to double the income of the Bottom 99% of Workers, for many more people will come to your side when you are proactive (for “new” Business & Government solutions), instead of reactive (against “old” Business & Government solutions), which is why what we most immediately need is a comprehensive “new” strategy that implements all our various socioeconomic demands at the same time, regardless of party, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 1% Management System of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves, and thus doubling our income from Bank Profits which are 40% of all Corporate Profits; that is, using a Focused Direct Democracy organized according to our current Occupations & Generations. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategically Weighted Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

http://getsatisfaction.com/americanselect/topics/on_strategically_weighted_policies_organizational_operating_structures_tactical_investment_procedures-448eo

Join http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrategicInternationalSystems/ because we need 100,000 “support clicks” at AmericansElect.org in support of the above bank-focused platform.

Most importantly, remember, as cited in the first link, that as Bank Owner-Voters in your 1 of 48 "new" Business Investment Groups (or "new" Congressional Committees) you become the "new" Online Congress, and related “new” Businesses, REPLACING the "old" Congress, and related “old” Businesses, according to your current Occupations & Generations, called a Focused Direct Democracy.

Therefore, any Candidate (or Leader) therein, regardless of party, is a straw man, a puppet, a political opportunist, just like today; what's important is the STRATEGY – the sequence of steps – that the people organize themselves under in Military Internet Formation of their Individual Purchasing Power & Group Investment Power. In this, sequence is key, and if the correct mathematical sequence is followed then it results in doubling the income of the Bottom 99% of Workers from today's Bank Profits, which are 40% of all Corporate Profits.

Why? Because there are Natural Social Laws – in mathematical sequence – that are just like Natural Physical Laws, such as the Law of Gravity. You must follow those Natural Social Laws or the result will be Injustice, War, etc.

The FIRST step in Natural Social Law is to CONTROL the Banks as Bank Owner-Voters. If you do not, you will inevitably be UNJUSTLY EXPLOITED by the Top 1% Management System of Business & Government who have a Legitimate Profit Motive, just like you, to do so.

Consequently, you have no choice but to become Candidates (or Leaders) yourselves as Bank Owner-Voters according to your current Occupations & Generations.

So JOIN the 2nd link, and spread the word, so we can make 100,000 support clicks at AmericansElect.org when called for, at exactly the right time, by an e-mail from that group, in support of the above the bank-focused platform. If so, then you will see and feel how your goals can be accomplished within the above strategy as a “new” Candidate (or Leader) of your current Occupation & Generation.

I will write "Oprah Winfrey was paid millions to endorse Countrywide. Their predatory loans left millions homeless."

Better Yet! Vote with your wallet!! If you don't like something, don't support it with your Wallet!

I don't even hardly use cash anymore anyway, which is why I support a completely electronic banking system that is fluctuated by the demands of our ever-changing needs. It's not that hard. It just needs to be willed into existence.

I fully agree. Keep in mind, defacing money is a crime (not that many OWS should mind, it's another form of civil disobedience and protest) I'm also not sure if defaced money is required to be taken out of circulation or not.

It will turn many against the movement. A large majority of the 99% would likely not view that very positively.

[-] 1 points by Robespierre (89) 13 years ago

"Defaced" money is clearly not taken out of circulation very quickly, since that "wheresgeorge" shit is on so many of them.

I write things on money all the time. Money is spread across race, gender and class lines. You should do this.
