Forum Post: The simple and fast way to spread this movement.

Two thousand years ago, a Roman Senator suggested that all slaves wear white armbands to better identify them.

"No," said a wiser Senator, "If they see how many of them there are, they may revolt."

We need to create a symbol. A design that incorporates the three branches of government and the three wealth classes in the world. This armband should be uniform in color and size and should be worn plain for everyone to see.

We should have a section of this website commited to sending in designs and voting for the symbols that are submitted.

The quote inside should be plain to read, and my suggestion of the quote is:

"Anonymous People Doing Anonymous Things."

The price should be set at 30% above cost and be considered a gift for the donation. Which should be less but no more than $5.00.

There should be an open chart of how much money has been brought in and what it has been spent on including any member of this movement being paid for their time in processing donations and running this website. Complete Oversight.

Sounds a little too WWII Germany for me. Never been a fan of arm bands. But I like t-shirts.

agree we should have wristbands to show how many of us there are, wristbands are pretty cheap too and if there are some profits that can go to help OWS

No one in their right mind keeps crooks and expects them to change with no punishment. There is nothing more simple. Only winning an election to get rid of the crooks can possibly work. Keeping crooks is beyond stupid. -- http://overthecoals.blogspot.com/
