Thanks buddy! The more education the better ! Someone needs to create a bible covering abuses in every sector of the economy. But most importantly, someone needs to help people un-learn all of the incorrect and misleading information that was instilled inus since 1st grade...example, US the counrty vs US the corporation.

I would also love to see a pyramid chart of the major corporations and how they ascend to the top power brokers. I'd love to see how the fed and other central banks are connected in diagram form as well as their connection to tyhe IMF, WTO, etc. I think if people could visualize this monopoly it would be easier for a lot of them to grasp everything.

Or Stephan Molyneux "The Story of your Enslavement" www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xbp6umQT58A

Better yet, why would you not include Zeitgeist Addendum, for it's discussion of Jacque Fresco's ideas of a Resource Based Economy? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EewGMBOB4Gg

and the sequel, Zeitgeist: Moving Forward http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z9WVZddH9w

Excellent. I'll have to watch this. Is there a particular point or process in the film which you feel is applicable to OWS?
