I would say that though this is one of the craziest, least directed movements this world has ever seen. From a sociological stand point this has also got to be one of the more exciting movements ever recorded. That complete lack of focus on any particular single topic, or even several topics to the exclusion of everything else lends this movement to the free and open, high speed passage of idea's. This in turn will possibly give rise to new idea's for new forms of government that are neither communist, socialist, or capitalist, possibly not even wholly democratic (as we understand it today), theocratic or any other form of government that has been tried within the past 6000+ years of civilization.

Maybe after this we can finally put to bed this thought: "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those others that have been tried."

~ Winston Churchill

Maybe after this we can find a new form of government that has none of the weaknesses of the old ones, but all of their strengths.
