Hello Occupy group...
Here is my recommended List of 40 demands for the Occupy movement, including a 'Consent for Governance' statement, to address the problems and issues in current policy.
Occupy List of 40 Consent for Governance Statement
Consent for Governance by the People
"As acting citizens for country and union, sharing vision for Liberty and just government, We the People provide and grant consent for a United States government, responsible to the public and requiring assurances of fair process for such body to operate, to fulfill and ensure duties in accordance with principles of fair and justly reasoned governance, bound and created by public trust to establish and act in those interests, lighted by and acting within properly founded reasoning and judgment, to those ends.
In granting such right to governance, we require institute of oversight process, for the regulation of proper policy and protections against abuses, to ensure the public well-being and redress unjust laws, legal judgments, court orders, rulings, political process, procedures, ceremonies, appointments or any other mechanism blocking progress or fair governance by red tape or any type of institutional obstruction, inactivity, or exploitation of the political process by questionable interests.
Holding the United States government to principles to ensure and institute a more perfect Union, We the People deem responsibility for the public body being the extension and fulfillment of founded reason, to empower fair access and participation to the public, and to establish and operate with fair governance in Legislative, Executive, Justice, Defense, and Education to promote and protect the general Welfare and well-being, the Blessings of Liberty, and to provide for the Rights of Tolerance against unreasonable demands, bias, or interests.
To support these ends, we require the following 40 policies to be instituted:
Corporations would not be allowed to layoff employees during net profitable year earnings in order to increase stock margins or increase executive or management salary, stock, or bonus compensations.
CEOs or executive management during layoff periods would not be allowed any earnings or stock bonuses for 2 years, after any layoff incident of 50 employees or more, or until re-hire. After any incident of layoff of 50 employees or more, CEOs would not be allowed earnings from said company in any form or venue of more than $1,000,000 per annum for 2 years, excess proceeds would be held in leu to ensure employee retention or re-hiring of said employees, or until re-hire.
Stock holders that vote or advocate for predatory exploitation of workers, the public well-being or public privacy interests (or against the protection of said entities) would immediately forfeit their stock, and the proceeds would be held in leu to ensure pension, employee retention, r&d, charitable local donation or re-compensation for any relevant damage.
10% of corporate stock must be retained to ensure company pension and employee retention or layoff compensation if company fails. 10% of corporate profits must be retained to ensure company viability during any future times of low profit. 5% of corporate or company profits beyond $1 million dollars must be distributed to employees (no more than 10% of said distribution to executives). 5% of corporate profits beyond $1 million dollars must be distributed to benefit the surrounding or extended community and environment (excluding religious or medical research organizations). Any corporate earnings loss will be culled from executive wages or bonuses in excess beyond $200,000 in total, per executive. Corporate executive wages, bonuses or compensation cannot exceed $10 million dollars per year.
Corporations or companies cannot be purchased for the purpose of liquidating assets or employees, beyond bankruptcy proceedings.
Companies are not allowed breach of reasonable privacy to customers, the public, or employees for non-essential purposes or for profit, unless given specific permission by customer or user of service, and cannot provide incentives for such breach of privacy. Companies cannot include verbiage granting them breach of reasonable privacy to users of service, customers, or employees for non-essential purposes or for profit, in any agreement regarding general terms of service. Breach of reasonable privacy would be any collection of individual information non-essential to providing core services. Opt-out policies are prohibited.
During layoff periods of 50 employees or more, stock holders would not be allowed any stock valuation earnings above 5% or any bonuses for 1 year after any layoff incident of 50 employees or more, excess valuation would be held in leu to ensure employee retention or re-hiring of said employees, or until re-hire. Stock would not be allowed to be sold during layoff periods of 50 employees or more, for 6 months.

Dave
The number of hours (days)(weeks) you worked on this well written well conceived list will go nowhere until Citizens United is overturned. If you seriously want massive changes like these, help us start in the beginning >>>>
Occupy opened the world's eyes
We have to stop DEMANDING that we WANT from THEM.
We must change to
GOALS THAT WE WILL ACHIEVE & WHAT WE WILL DO
to sever the wall street leash on Washington
Because of the Supreme Court's decision,
we cannot accomplish anything significant, without FIRST -
Overturn Citizens United !!!
End Corporate Personhood !!!
83% of Americans already agree on it
as stated in the ABC/Washington Post poll
In the the PFAW Poll -
YOUR ACTION ----> JOIN US TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
I feel that we should stay with this simple text to overturn CU:
”corporations are not people”
for four simple reasons and one – not so simple:
1
83% of Americans have already opposed CU in the ABC/Washington post poll and the above
IS THEIR POSITION ALREADY.
2
We don’t have to work to convince people on the validity of our position.
3
Simple is almost always better.
4
This simple Amendment is REQUIRED to overturn CU.
And all other electoral reform can be passed through the normal legislative process.
5
OWS and these pages are chock full of ( mostly ) excellent ideas to improve our country.
All of them have strong advocates – and some have strong opposition.
None of them has been “pre-approved” by 83% of Americans !
Pursuing this goal – without additional specifics is exactly what Americans want.
What do we want? Look at that almost endless list of demands – goals - aims.
Tax the rich. End the Fed. Jobs for all, Medicare for all. So easy to state! Can you imagine how hard it would be to formulate a “sales pitch” for any of these to convince your Republican friends to vote for any of them?
83% of Americans have ALREADY “voted” against CU. And 76% of the Rs did too.
All we have to do ask Americans is to pressure their representatives – by letters - emails – petitions.
Wanna take your family on vacation?
Convince the 7 year old and the 10 year old to go to Mt Rushmore.
Then try to convince them to go to Disneyland.
Prioritizing this goal will introduce us to the world – not as a bunch of hippie radical anarchist socialist commie rabblerousers – but as a responsible, mature movement that is fighting for what America wants.
YOUR ACTION ----> JOIN US TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
I feel that using the tactics of the NRA, the AARP an the TP – who all represent a minority – who have successfully used their voting power to achieve their minority goals - plus the Prohibition Amendment tactics – bringing all sides together - is a straight path for us to success that cannot fail to enable us to create and complete one task the MAJORITY.

regular meetings 6-8PM @ 60 Wall St – The Attrium @ Wednesdays
YOUR ACTION ----> JOIN US TO PASS THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
TO END CORPORATE PERSONHOOD
Whereas --
The OWS Declaration of the Occupation of New York City states that
"a democratic government derives its just power from the people,
not from corporations."
and --
the ABC News/Washington Post poll found that 83% of the entire US population
opposes the Supreme Court Citizens United decision,
which affirmed that corporations are people.
and --
by supporting the overturning of corporate personhood,
OWS clearly aligns itself with the vast majority of the American people
who support ending the fundamentally flawed and anti-democratic concept
that corporations are people.
therefore --
We support a constitutional amendment to end corporate personhood.
Hello, and thank you for your post... and the kind comments... This approach you mention regarding reversing corporate personhood is a good point...
You may want to consider to a degree whether just going for one idea, which could take an incredible amount of time, is where you want to put all your efforts... Keep in mind i agree that corporations should not be considered an individual...
The culture of how things work, in terms of how we approach resolving issues, in society as well as the government, is what is actually determining how things are done...and whether things are improved...
While i understand that you may be frustrated with what may seem to be lack of clear direction for reform, and i share that with you... we should still be careful about how we approach these issues... We may not want to dismiss all other concerns just for the interest of getting one thing passed... even if you think that this could somehow potentially change alot... It is a simple idea regarding corporate personhood, and it has alot of merit, maybe why people can get behind it, and is a good point as to it possibly getting alot of support... But it is important to evaluate things as constructively as possible, when dealing with issues this complex... and i'm not saying that what you are doing is not a good approach... However, we can all support all good ideas, that is the whole point of addressing problems in society, there are a lot of issues that affect a lot of people in a lot of areas, and maybe we should not just dismiss those concerns in order to attempt just to get behind just one position, because alot of other problems, also have merit as well... So i am not completely sure about going for just this one thing... I support what you are trying to do, but there are a lot of other areas of concern, for alot of people... I hope this makes sense...
I support your initiative... Let's also allow all good ideas as well...
Thanks, Dave
Very interesting, but could you explain, "Intellectual patents of obvious universal design principles or simple associative deductions are prohibited."?
Hi, and thanks for the kind words....
The patent language point i was making was for unreasonable patents, like a fork, or 'phone with touchscreen' kind of vague patents which are being used for excessive manipulations and that harm free competition and the market (like pharmaceuticals patents on aids drugs, diabetics drugs, etc)... Example: My massage therapist told me her friend has ms and has to pay $600+ on prescriptions, because of patents, that block generics... Patents should not be used to profit off other's misery and difficulties, or to block or limit progress... The open source movement is a good model, working toward making things which are fundamentally beneficial to society free and not turn into profit centers... ie Wikipedia, OpenOffice, etc...
Hope this helps clarify what was kind of meant for this point... Thanks, Dave
Yes, that does. Thanks for the reply. It will inherently repel profit-based greed at the same time.
Thanks for the encouragement, and i understand what you are saying and i agree... I am glad to explain any of the specifics list, for anyone of the points, so definitely feel free to ask about any more of them! I think this is important to try to provide as much background support as we can for ideas, and this can be helpful in important discussions and to help with new ideas... Thanks! Dave
In other words a police state...where does freedom lie in this tyrannical system?
Hi... Ok, essentially the spirit of freedom, ex. like probably envisioned by Jefferson, etc... Was for a system that did not block progress by reasonable action... The spirit of this is not for example allow for all kinds of questionable exploitation... It is up to us, anyone, to demand that reasonablility, and if elements in the system, in collusion or group even, are not acting in the interest of fundamental well-being of the people, then these actions should be questioned... I hope this kind of makes sense... Thanks, Dave
No, it doesn't make sense..I understand what your saying...but there is no sense to it...it's tyranny pure and simple.....a means to control human beings in an attempt (tried and failed many times) to equalize outcomes....
I would die before living in such a system, and fight against it with all I have, and am.....even if it meant death....and I am not alone...
Let's try to understand something... If someone gets arrested for assault, your saying that appropriately stopping inappropriate actions by politicians or individuals by policy, that this is a violation of fundamental freedoms..? Freedom is not meant to just allow all kind of corrupt practices... I'm not sure why you think stopping anyone, government officials or not, from doing things that are not in the public interest is a 'violation of freedom'... You are aware that people are already being arrested and retained already for doing things against reasonable laws, in this country of freedom, right? You think this is 'always bad' even if the action was reasonable? I stopping slavery a 'violation of freedom'? Stopping something that is not appropriate is not really a 'violation of freedom'... why? because your stopping someone else from violating the fundamental right of individuals to be treated fairly and with dignity..
Thanks, Dave
Look, Dave...
You can create any sort of explanation you like to frost over the inevitable outcome of your "list of 40", but it is a list of tyrannies....A list of force upon individuals...I am sure you will claim morality in your address of so-called "needs" of the "people"...which is the recipe that has always been used by the tyrants all through the ages...and maybe you even mean well, and feel like this is an attempt at "fairness"....but true "fairness" is to allow people to succeed or fail by their own efforts, and bear the responsibility and reward of their own behaviors...your list skews that, and forces on man an inorganic system of prohibitions
I'm not sure you are really giving this a fair evaluation... The failures of other attempts in other areas, in other times, in other circumstances, is not grounds to automatically dismiss other approaches in new circumstances or new ideas... this is reasonable right? What about when people are exploited by bad policy, you think 'fairness' is to allow people to be exploited by those who hide behind advantages they have to block reasonable policy... If we don't think about things one at a time, and put a little distance from our biases, then it is very difficult to evaluate things objectively... You may be well intentioned, but it is still important to remain objective rather than simply dismissing things without looking at things in a more measured approach... I am certainly not saying that you do not have good intentions, but there is sometimes more to it than just that... Should we step back and take the time to examine new ideas, or just be aggressive, because of our ingrained habits of thinking... this is not something that we should always have to have contention about... It should not really be difficult to step back a little and give things fair examination... We owe it to the discussion to do this, if we want to claim we have the interest of good thinking... If you would like to list a specific example, i would be glad to address it and we could examine it together... i'm trying to be helpful here, and we are all able to have good ideas and try to have good discussion, that is the whole idea... Thanks, Dave
Well....let's start with number one and two...
So, an enterprise could not strip an unprofitable division in order to maintain profitability until that division brought down the profits of the entire enterprise into negative territory, according to this "rule" unless the entity is in loss they could not take action to maintain the value of the stock in competition with other corporations....so the stock would lose value, and executives would leave to pursue other opportunities...
What would hold the best Executive in positions, if they were not allowed to trim staffs, and if they did...were subject to be forced to work for free? and is seems like you are making the assertion that it is the purpose of business, first and foremost to provide employment..... and that the production of marketable goods and services is secondary...isn't that what you are saying?
and I find it interesting that those of you who would complain about an executive earning a salary of 10 million in a company of 100,000 employees, at $100 per employee, but never have anything to say about a small business owner earning, say $80 thousand at a business with 5 employees...at $16,000 per employee...seems like the small business is engaging in more "unethical, predatory, exploitation"...huh?
Hi and thanks for asking about these points... These are somewhat questions regarding 'corporate culture' and how it relates to the well-being of the company and therefore its employees, of course as well..
Ok the language in number one regarding corporate practices of layoffs... What this is saying is that productive and useful departments should not have employees culled, just to increase profits by making people do double or triple as much work, and increase their stress and burn them out, to increase stock or ceo bonuses... If the work has merit, and is providing good services, then profit should not just override the well-being of the employees or their pensions, or the merit of the services...
An unproductive or 'un-useful' department should be restructured... A company that is making billions should not just can everyone and outsource the work to increase stock bonuses, or play games with the employees and operations by slashing good services and departments...
For the point about CEOs.... CEOs should enjoy reasonable wealth for their work... instead of making companies a revolving door for networking elites, companies should be focused toward making quality useful products and services and not playing slash and burn for bonuses and profit... If executives do not want to be reasonable with how they manage the well-being of employees and the company, then there are plenty more people would have more appropriate intentions that are available and these should be the ones that are requited or promote...
Hope this info makes sense and is helpful... Thanks, Dave
no...still makes no sense, as in the "sane and realistic attitude to situations and problems" definition...it's interesting, in a demonstration of flawed thinking ....but make no sense....it's almost like a few pages out of Atlas Shrugged
I haven't read this book Atlas Shrugged but it looks like a somewhat interesting look at the dynamics of society.. i'll have to look into it... but again i myself am not sure much about of this specific reference...
However, I would also be glad to discuss any ideas of reasoning fallacies or problems of perspective, if this is what you mean by the reference, in terms of how you think this would apply to the points or discussion...
Thanks, Dave
Dave, in all honesty...it might be an interesting discussion if we were to sit down with a bottle of scotch and discuss the finer points of our respective philosophies...but, for a discussion of that depth....this really is a difficult forum in which to engage in it fully...
I can say I disagree with almost everything on your list of 40, on principle, but I applaud your attitude
Hi, ah yes, this is interesting isn't it... how we can often get into discussions about all kinds of things... but how hard is it to actually get to the point where the 'internal references' that we are using, to found our conclusions, actually get looked at... because these very often influence our discussions the most... This can be looked at how we approach ideas, very often we are motivated by our intentions, which makes sense and in many ways is a good way to approach our ideas... but what if this can be problematic in some areas... For example, we can be influenced greatly by situations where something we saw or heard, rubbed us the wrong way... We can become motivated to revisit what we had disliked, if not sufficiently resolved to our liking earlier, but by introducing into new ongoing areas, maybe to kind of take the discussion back to what we wanted to address before... So these things could affect how we engage in other areas... I actually don't think that really anyone is not open and willing to sit down and look at a variety of important areas with good intent to be constructive, but it is also a matter of convenience, which i think you may have been alluding to or mentioning... Looking at many common areas of interest or concern could require a different approach than just maybe certain ways of evaluating things, or whether a more in-depth approach would help resolve some collective areas of difficulty, even in society... You seem to be someone who like to articulate your points, and i admire that... I think maybe some of the areas that we may all struggle with, is kind of cultural... like how much to we want to delve into things, with all the distractions we have, and do we often feel its worth it, or have the time, or when discussions can sometimes feel like a win or lose situation... Anyway, all constructive discussion can lead to better ideas and can be good for looking at things in new ways...
Thanks... Dave
