There are many people who support the OccupnyWallstreet movement but cannot attend a demonstration. Wearing a distinctive OWS armband would allow them to show their support while they go about their normal lives. What better way to promote a silent movement.
Can a creative person with an artistic flair come up with a provocative design for one? Keep it simple though because these would need to be made up inexpensively from materials available world-wide.

Freedom through action!
It should be something that's not too loud. Something that people eventually ask "What are those bands?" ... like the livestrong bands. Although I fully support the cause, some people are more bashful than others.
I wouldn't want to see the movement be seen as fringe when in reality it isn't. Just my opinion.
OWS needs an offical paper funny money
how about an outstretched hand, palm up, with a rainbow around it?
How about a black armband with an up-side-down American flag on it to indicate America is in distress? That's simple and the flags are available just about everywhere.
Everyone owns black ;)
how bout they could take the bus, or compost, buy locally, plant a garden, etc etc,
armband is a good idea too but it should be simple, just one color or two
