I think our simple message should be: "End the Corruption!". All of what we're discussing here can easily fall under that title. And when people ask what we mean by that or how to do it, we can get more specific.
I think everyone who supports OWS should see this video, if we can all understand this then we will be better able to formulate a plan of action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3Qz1C-dAGc

MONEY OUT OF GOVERNMENT
The government answers to corporations, interest groups backed by the 1%. That's who they make policy for.
Everything we've done so far to make the democratic process accessible over the course of our country's history has been undermined.
We can't address the wealth disparity with a government that facilitated it because 99% of Americans have no say in government policy.
Banking reform, tax reform, healthcare reform.. are UNATTAINABLE because every line of every bill passed has been AUCTIONED OFF!
Corporate person hood is the one and only obstacle to getting things done. Getting rid of it will be the window to changing America.
Why don't representatives vote for things a majority of the constituents want? Joke is on us because we're not the real constituents.
We (the people) alone should fund candidates so they answer to us!
OF the people. BY the people. FOR the people. Corporations are NOT people.
Since our country is ran by educated idiots that won't compromise to solve any problems, afraid of change, I decided to come up with a job plan that would bring instant results. This change would shrink class sizes, double the the job market, dramatically reduce unemployment and welfare reliance, boost consumer spending, and focus more on quality times with families.
My solution: change the work week to 3 ten hour days instead of 5 or 6 eight hour days and have schools correspond.That is 2 shifts: Monday-Wednesday and Thursday-Saturday while leaving Sunday optional or half days for those whom want extra hours. Shrinking the week would allow both parents to work then have at least three days to spend with the family. For those who are more ambitious, a person could work 2 jobs and not back to back making extremely long days. This gives a family the potential to earn 4 incomes a week!
If schools were to follow the same schedule, as well as longer hours, it would greatly help with the education system. Class sizes would be reduced and there would be more time for individual needs of students. With more time at school we can focus on more athletics and social clubs which boost self esteem and confidence. Also more time for counseling and tutoring, which could act as a gauge for new teachers. Other classes could be added to the curriculum such as conservation, finance, etiquette, healthy lifestyles and group workshops. This also gives children a place to interact with their friends in a supervised environment.
More people with jobs and money would increase consumer spending and boost the economy. Morale would be up and confidence in our system would be restored. The political pollution and bad economy has us loosing focus on what is the most important... the American family. Hoarding money and assets are killing jobs and hurting education, and both of those will ruin America. Run the numbers, I'm sure we can make it work, because what is happening now isn't.
Did you stand too close to the closing Bell?? Anger management will help make your trading go a lot smoother in the future..
I Demand that you speak with a clean MOUTH!
The Anonymous Christian Terrorist Anarchist are building the movement to get enough suckers to to be used for cannon fodder to take make the attack and then with their Christians friends overthrow the government for Jesus and set up their dictatorship before it is too late and the planet dies. They want to kill gays and Muslims and anybody who ain't a Christian, believe it or not and the CIA knows all about it.
Exactly, many more people will come to your side when you are proactive (for “new” Business & Government solutions), instead of reactive (against “old” Business & Government solutions), which is why what we most immediately need is a comprehensive “new” strategy that implements all our various socioeconomic demands at the same time, regardless of party, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 10% Management System of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves; that is, using a Focused Direct Democracy organized according to our current Occupations & Generations. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategically Weighted Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

because we need 100,000 “support clicks” at AmericansElect.org to support a Presidential Candidate -- such as any given political opportunist you'd like to draft -- in support of the above bank-focused platform.
Most importantly, remember, as cited in the first link above, that as Bank Owner-Voters in your 1 of 48 "new" Business Investment Groups (or "new" Congressional Committees) you become the "new" Congress replacing the "old" Congress according to your current Occupation & Generation, called a Focused Direct Democracy.
Therefore, any Candidate (or Leader) therein, regardless of party, is a straw man, a puppet; it's the STRATEGY – the sequence of steps – that the people organize themselves under, in Military Internet Formation of their Individual Purchasing & Group Investment Power, that's important. Sequence is key.
Why? Because there are Natural Social Laws – in mathematical sequence – that are just like Natural Physical Laws, such as the Law of Gravity. You must follow those Natural Social Laws or the result will be Injustice, War, etc.
The FIRST step in Natural Social Law is to CONTROL the Banks as Bank Owner-Voters. If you do not, you will inevitably be UNJUSTLY EXPLOITED by the Top 10% Management Group of Business & Government who have a Legitimate Profit Motive, just like you, to do so.
Consequently, you have no choice but to become Candidates (or Leaders) yourselves as Bank Owner-Voters according to your current Occupation & Generation.
So please JOIN the 2nd link, so we can make our support clicks at AmericansElect.org when called for by e-mail from the group in the 2nd link, and then you will see and feel how your goals can be accomplished within the strategy of the 1st link as a “new” Candidate (or Leader) of your Occupation & Generation.
No more FTAs and repeal our existing FTAs.
Strengthen our corporate prosecutors.
Get money out of politics - no more revolving doors, kickbacks, bailouts, wasteful subsidies (I do NOT mean kill investment), etc.
No more tax breaks for the wealthy. No more loopholes.
Guess what? If you have seen the Republican playbook the minute you list a demand they flash it on Fox and start their spin on the issue. Three days ago I heard Rush tell a fellow Republican that the Banks were not responsible for the crash of 2008....apparently it was someone else and they must not have packaged crap real estate loans (passing them off as AAA investments) so you go figure....
Be patient and let the debate grow and let people's voices be heard first - the objectives will start to come together!
