This content is user submitted and not an official statement

1)Topics of discussion
2)A way to search them
3)Posts by dates so you can read responses
4)A list of emerging occupy notable people plus news for them
example of topics: should be things specific to occupy that are important to the movement to set the groundwork for a list of issues:
-Economic Inequality
-Corporatization of the US and government plus money in politics
-Military Industrial Complex
-Medical Industrial Complex
-Food Industrial Complex Corporate and Factory Farms
-Striking Balance between Corporatism and Capitalism and Socialism
-Free Press vs Corporate Media Agendas

-Elected Officials Guilty of Selling Out (A list of offenders and offenses)
-The Worlds Worst Corporations and CEO's vote with $ BOYCOTT
-Lobbying and Super Pacs
-Corporate Run Voting System the Fraud and Dangers
-Things Challenging Democracy - that could lead to further subtopics
-Protests - Ideas and overcoming Challenges
-Patents on Food and Life
-Revolving Door Politics the Infultration of Corporations into agencies designed to protect us and regulate industry as well as insider trading
-Jobs: In-sourcing,Outsourcing, and Downsizing the American Worker
-Final Topic No Left or Right - Occupy is for Everyone and if you disagree please tell us why and give us your ideas to improve

Please Occupy heed the call on this - these are clear cut most important issues !!! and there's no way to gain any ground with a sputtering of messages they have no meaning when they're all just thrown out there on a page with no idea where to begin or end ... They have more meaning when it can flow out from a central point like a flow chart that leads to ideas and solutions from everyone
democracy needs organization !!!

Your approach may be comforting but would diminish free thinking and innovation.

This is good - don't know how you did it - but definitely shows talent and motivation and INNOVATION - Matt - you should be designing the forum !! Problems create innovation - being motivated enough to find solutions creates change and progress - Thanks Matt!!!

Mostly, it needs better troll control.

The infection continues, unabated.
