This article below gives information on exactly how Republicans are being instructed to speak against the Occupy movement. They are afraid of us and see the potential of our movement.

The article says ""I'm so scared of this anti-Wall Street effort. I'm frightened to death," said Frank Luntz, a Republican strategist and one of the nation's foremost experts on crafting the perfect political message. "They're having an impact on what the American people think of capitalism." Read in the article below how exactly he is training GOP leaders to address our movement.

If we are the 99% wouldn't we want most Republicans on our side?

By definition since we are the 99% most Republicans are on our side in being used by multinational corporations and banks who use their influence to control politicians. That does not mean that Republicans or Democrats understand the role being played by the international bankers in the workings of our government. Cash is King and dollars count more than human voices. Few understand the monetary system www.themoneymasters.com or the power that multinational corporations and international bankers play in influencing the U.S government and that of others nations as well. We the people are the 99% but CASH talks and controls. Not all the 99% know that yet. They think their votes control but in Washington every citizens voice is not equal. The corporations that lobby Congress working out of their offices on K Street in DC have far more influence than the average American citizen. They have money to help politicians get re-elected. The American government also operates on borrowed dollars. Those who lend those dollars have power over our government. All this threatens a democracy. It becomes a plutocracy or rule of the rich.

Since day-one the USA is/was a constitutional federalist nation, HAMILTONIAN. Hamilton won the debate Jefferson lost. The USA was designed as a free nation of white men land owners, who all had large gun collections. Not much has changed, except that post civil-war when the slaves were freed, the land owners demanded 'gun control' for fear the niggers would be armed. The rest is history.

Correct. The true bottom up democracy OWS is appealing for has never been seen on the earth except for a very brief period in Spain. It is a true democracy where all citizens of all classes have an equal voice and vote and directions are given from the bottom up not from professional politicians and elites down. It truly would require all citizens to be active in political meetings on a regular basis instead of delegating all decision making to politicians they elect once in four years. All that said we would still need representatives all of who would face immediate recall if they did not please those they represent. You might research the www.wikipedia.com article on Participatory Democracy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participatory_democracy and also Participatory Economy

We are making a dent.

Who's gotta blow torch?

Here's from the article:

  1. Always blame Washington.

Tell them, "You shouldn't be occupying Wall Street, you should be occupying Washington. You should occupy the White House because it's the policies over the past few years that have created this problem."
