I just thought I'd throw my opinion out for discussion. We've got their attention. The world is watching and many are participating. What if we focused on one issue and pushed until we got results. I believe that one of the primary contributors to the situation we're in, is corporate money influencing our politicians. If we focused on reversing the Supreme Court ruling that corporations are people and they have the right to contribute unlimited amounts to political campaigns, I think that would be a major victory for the cause. Check out this site. They have started to take action http://unitedrepublic.org/. I realize that there are many, many issue of concern, but change has to start somewhere. What do you think?

I think instead of blindly following one entire movement like a bunch of sheep, we each stand up and think individually for ourselves. You might notice that with just a little prayer and meditation you will receive 'downloads' and your eyes will become open to know what you personally must do. Each and every one of us of plays a very important part in this game of life and the battle between good and evil.

But don't listen to anything I, or anyone else has to say...think for yourself and question authority.

There are tens of thousands of OWS activists active in hundreds of GAs around the nation. How do you propose to influence them about anything? There are dozens of ideas on this forum, some good, some bad, some indifferent, but virtually nothing about process, not a single thing about how anybody with an idea proposes to actually get it implemented.

I don't care about having the attention of the Bankster Kleptocracy. We have the attention of the masses. Deliver these messages:

9/11 was an inside job. The war on drugs is run by drug lords. The war on terror is run by terrorists. The Federal Reserve is neither Federal nor Reserve, it is a Ponzi scheme.
