I agree with someone on the radio who was saying that all the focus on police brutality etc has been a distraction from the real purpose of the "Occupy" or "99%" movement. I think possibly a massive march on Washington might be a good thing soon, several million people with possibly at least a suggested agenda about fair taxation and separation of money from politics.

March? Why not just Occupy DC? Everyone meet up and combine the occupy movements from cities nationwide. I'd love to see 10,000 people camping in DC.

How about right into the white house and congress! I don't think the people realize yet just how much power we really have.

When's the next joint session of congress? I think it would be best march when we know that everyone is "home".

Make it about the onerous violations of law congress has been conducting for 100 years denying the constituional right to an Article 5 convention.

Article 5 is our first and last right. If we do not use it, we will not have any rights.

WOW the first thing of any intelligence that came out of you "occupiers" march on those who "we" placed into office not those who use the system,legally, allowed by the govt for gain. And get back to the real point NOTHING ELSE but fair taxation and seperation of money from politics(the latter will most likely never happen as long as human nature is involved in human beings that are the politics) .....very well said realnothings ,my hat is off to you. THANK YOU FOR GETTING BACK TO THE POINT and what and where we/they/you should focus your attentions. Occupy Washington or hey occupy the policitcs phones/emails and mailboxes.
