Why not make a difference in the present while you are trying to make a difference in future?
The idea is simple enough. Instead of occupying downtown districts, occupy low-income areas. It is the perfect opportunity to use your energy and motivation to help the less fortunate.
While you are there, you can provide valuable outreach to area residents and raise just as much, if not MORE, awareness of your cause. You can be a teacher, a painter, and many more occupations while you occupy.
Utilize the support and donations being offered to occupiers to better the lives of families in need.
No, quite the opposite. To showcase their living conditions.
Why ? So the wealthy can go back to ignoring the plight of the less fortunate? Out of sight out of mind.
You can also use that $500K + that was collected, and "spread the wealth around."
