It would be nice if someone could come up with a Tshirt and/or hoodie to make and sell to those of us who can't physically join the movement. The profits could be used for funding for the cause.
I agree Made in the USA. Any "artsy-fartsy" people out there who can design something?!
They should be Made in USA in order to represent the fight against wall street corporate greed
We can get them made in China for about 1/3 the price. (just kidding) I know, not really funny
Hear is a link to a place that can make the shirts and sell them on the web. I think people can go their and pick the art work and size an buy it..Somebody just has to initially provide the art files

Aren't funds needed to help the people who are physically at the protest? I was just trying to help since I cant be there. Eventually i would hope that the movement actually goes to DC for a meeting of some sort so that something can be accomplished. Won't that take money to send the right group of people? What are your suggestions?
You struggle against capitalism, but you are seeking funds. What makes you different then? Charity? This is not the right way.
Thanks for the link to the Tshirt charity place...I will look into that and pass on any info that may help. Rob, I'm sure you mean that as a joke, right?
I will make them and keep the proceeds for myself. Nothing wrong with that.
can sell them on ebay too...
So any ideas how we can get a company to donate the blank shirts, and other supplies? How do we get the idea to the "top" people in the movement?
http://www.tshirtcharity.com/nonprofits.html This should allow anyone to create custom shirts, sell them online, create awareness when people buy and wear them, and make profit that can be sent to OWS. there are a number of other websites that offer similar functionality.
Wonderful idea.
Hi, I thought of that too - why not ask the rich celebrities to endorse the movement as well - they expect us to 'endorse' them by going to their movies and fawning over them, why not expect them to 'endorse' the movement in return. Whoever refuses, just boycott their movie. They'll take notice then.
BUMP!
