Occupy Wall Street

A 48-post collection

Dear Moneymakers, (an open letter)

And by this, I mean all corporate “persons”, executives, super-rich and basically, everyone who is making their money by just having money.

You’re doing it wrong.

Current economic theory states that if you give enough money to the already-rich, some of it will inevitably “trickle down” to the lower classes, the world will become everyone’s oyster and we’ll all be knee deep in pearls.

Everyone not amongst the already-rich knows this theory

What's happening, OWS?

I do not believe for one second that OWS has fizzled out. Especially overnight.

Given all the laws and whatnot flying around, and the protests and outrage concerning them, I can only guess what’s happened in the space of twenty-four hours

1) They arrested absolutely everybody and haven’t told anyone.

2) They’re censoring everything OWS.

3) Corporate America suddenly realised there’s bugger all elsewhere to go once they’ve finished raping America and

OWS idea: shit-stirring kickstarter

So I just had one of those brain farts that can only cause trouble and decided to share. I’m that special ;)

Start a kickstarter project in the US to buy the next president.

Obviously, it has to be long term. Like 2016 type long term. Y'know, since this year is leaving it a little too late to fund a president.

The whole goal is to bring back a government by the people, for the people and of the people by

Slogans From My Back-Brain

I keep thinking of things to chant, even though I’m currently unable to participate.

Stuff like this:

All day! All night! Occupy our rights!

We want (clap clap) us free (clap clap) to build a better e-con-o-me!

You had your fun! You got your bonus! Now pay us back! The banks owe us!

Yeah, the last one’s a little complicated for chanting and marching. It’s more of a last minute thing. I’ll doubtless think

Open Source Freedom

I had one of those ideas that can only get better the more you share it, so I thought I’d throw this out there. I hereby give it free and clear to the world. Just please, if you implement it, keep it honest and transparent.

What is Open Source Freedom?

Open Source Freedom, or OSF, is an organisation and system by which citizens help other citizens help each other out of debt. Not for any kind of profit, but for

BREAKING: Jeniffer Fox, the 3 Month Pregnant women who was pepper sprayed at Occupy Seattle has miscarried.

bubblegumcat:

occupyallstreets:

“I was screaming, ‘I am pregnant, I am pregnant. Let me through. I am trying to get out.’” At that point, Fox continues, a Seattle police officer lifted his foot and it hit her in the stomach, and another officer pushed his bicycle into the crowd, again hitting Fox in the stomach.

Well fuck everything

And the reason the pro-life folks aren’t screaming about the violent police fetus murderers is….?

My thoughts on the morning of the 18/11

I live in Australia, so the 17th is still happening in the US as I write this. There’s plans currently in motion that will come to a close before this article ever reaches anyone else’s eyes.

I can’t help feeling that I’m watching an empire collapse.

All the signs are there. Demagoguery, fascism, numerous attempts to silence the increasingly pissed off masses and trained ditto heads claiming, in spite of all evidence to the
