#OCCUPYWALLSTREET This Saturday

Come out and support the occupation at noon in Liberty Plaza.

This article is available in:

#OCCUPYWALLSTREET is a people powered movement for democracy that began in America on September 17 with an encampment in the financial district of New York City. Inspired by the Egyptian Tahrir Square uprising and the Spanish acampadas, we vow to end the monied corruption of our democracy.


Dreamers, jammers, rabble-rousers and revolutionaries,

#OCCUPYWALLSTREET is a week old and roaring strong. We, the people, are finding our voice, realizing that, yes we can revive our democracy. It is beautiful. It is an achievement. And it has the potential to grow into something even more wild and wonderful over the next few weeks and months.

This Saturday at noon at the people's assembly in Liberty Plaza there will be a celebration of our incredible first week. Last Saturday, 5,000 people flocked nonviolently to Wall Street … this Saturday there will be 10,000. And then in the weeks that follow, we will swell to 50,000 … and maybe even to 100,000+ by mid-October. Wouldn't that be something!

For those who cannot make it to Wall Street's liberated space, why not organize #OCCUPYCHICAGO, #OCCUPYDALLAS, #OCCUPYSANFRANCISCO, #OCCUPYBOSTON and #OCCUPYDC. This is the perfect moment to expand our movement into financial districts, iconic sites of economic power and branches of Bank of America everywhere.

According to PBS Newshour, 45 percent of young Americans aged 16 to 29 don't have a job. Economists are talking glumly about a "lost generation" but they've got it wrong. We're the generation that pulls off the second American Revolution.

This Saturday at Noon, let's escalate #OCCUPYWALLSTREET into a nationwide peaceful demand for economic justice.

for the wild,

I don't know why I am going to say this but I am going to anyway.I notice people that don't have money make fun of people with money.And maybe want them to fail.I didn't have money once and people use't to make fun of me.Not because I had money but for just being myself.Now I have money and now people who don't have money make fun of me.In my opinion rambo survival man will come out on top no matter what because people are stupid and crazy.

Butcher the earth for profit. I need Indonesian palm oils for snickers bars more than the thousands of extinct plants containing yet to be discovered alkaloids, which may or may not cure the diabetes instilled from said snickers bar.

Kill the insects on your lawn with Raid, Roundup, and Roundup ready sprays for a super green lawn! All your neighbors will shower you with secret envious jealousy that your lawn is far more toxic than theirs, also your dead squirell count will be higher, so that when the food shortages come you will have more food to eat!

When you are in a room full of people, communicate by staring down at the rectangular object in your palm, talk in to it, also press the buttons with your fingertips. This is proper communication of a thriving insect colony.

Parking lots which are mostly vacant make good locations to shoot up or otherwise use an assortment of harddrugs. A municipal garden is unnecessary as it doesn't generate profit, only food and well being for the community. Which cuts into profit.

Profit and self interest are most important for the return of the Christ. If we don't completely fuck up everything, he wont show up.

If you have over 1000 friends on FB people will know that you are their true friend and you will know them more intimately than anyone else. Being shallow and with phony smiles and fake hellos is necessary to appear like you care, that way the parking lot deal can go through, and the glyphosate can continue to run into the waterways.

When peoples children are born with hermaphradidic anomolies like 2 pairs of genitalia, then its important to ask the local chaplain not to sexually abuse them. Also to chastize their great evil sent upon the earth by the devil.

Its important never to speak your mind, you should always hold a silent desperation and wanting for free expression, but never ever EVER! act on it.

Keep a log of your neighbors activity. When you are feeling petty and spiteful, phone to complain that their lawn is too brown, and that is smells like skunks...Petition your friendly neighbors that you secretly dispise, but placate with phony smiles and fake hellos on sundays, to have a community watch so you know exactly what everyone else is doing, and how they should be doing it your way.

If you have lots of money, eat out a restaurants and throw away the styrofoam. Besides the service industry fuels the economy.

Pretend like you don't get your values and understanding of culture from television, and listen to an AM talk radio station.

Remember if you wear a badge and feel powerful. No ones gonna stop your from beating women, then macing their faces.

To get to the top, step on others and talk ill of them behind their backs, then when they come around placate them with phony hellos and false praise. Really give it away that your being fake with the tones in your voice. That way, they know of your disingenousness. But its all the same to them, because they are doing the same thing to you.

Remember compassion is weakness, and strength is found on television.

Keep hope alive. That way is suffers a little bit longer, until its ripe enough to stab in the liver. When the blood flows out, drink it. Mmm! its actually wine thats making you hallucinate!

Complain about people not doing their parts to put dog shit in little plastic baggies. Throw the bag in the dumpster, along with your recyclables, then ask why waste disposal cost is increasing.

If you are poor, stay that way you pathetic fuck. If you are rich, take some from the poor. When they come to your house, shove your wife and kids at the onslaught of wrath coming for you. Then cower in basement where youve built a bomb shelter with autolocking doors. Oh shit, the timer was set for 22 years- the estimate of the fallout- looks like your in here for the long haul.

The skunky deadbeats from across the street have a giant inflatable balloon releasing strange smelling gasses. Or are you hallucinating this? It doesn't matter now, because you just plunged a kitchen knife into your gaudy reptilian wifes heart Azteca style. Its okay your kids Peter and Luke are out in the ferrari snorting lines of Bolivian shale.

Don't worry aboout the legal problems, you know the judge, and he knows the lawyers, and they know the chief of police, and he knows the plant owners, and they know the factory owners, and they know the mayor, the mayor knows the governor, and the governor is really good shake hands good friends with the senator, and he is on the commission, which chairs the board, which facilitates the committee for keeping greedy cocksuckers out of prison with a little bling here and little bling there. The only thing left is that creeping feeling in the back of your mind, its a good thing you know a good doctor to prescribe the right pharmaceuticals to do away with that nagging feeling of humanity.

Give the United States governmental powers back to the Native Americans. They have been here for thousands of years, and I bet a tribal council would be beneficial to fixing our socio economic problems.

America is very proud of OccupyWallStreet! YOU ARE INSPIRING THE WORLD.
WE HAVE a common message underlying all the issues--what we must "demand" which is really simply what we must focus on, together, since this is much bigger than a single set of people in one place making demands to another set in another place. It's the end of an era--an awful era--and the beginning of another completely different era. No demands need be made to some seemingly powerful, crumbling cavaliers. Your simple peaceful presence will move the world to unseat the bums. [see below...] I can't be with you, TRUE Americans--the courageous generation we've waited a quarter-century to see!--but I'm with you in heart, and singing this chant: [a waltz--written a measure per line, ie, 3 beats/line:]

NO-O more
money-love
ruling the
country and
NO-O more
money-love
ruining the world.

[after a few of these, you'll need to remember who you are]

WE-E are
lovers of
people and
animals,
places of
beauty and
all of life's
joys.

The people are fed up,
FI-NALL-Y WAK-ING up.
PEACE-loving people
taking a stand!

"Greed" doesn't cover it: it's the love of money--to the psychopathic degree--rather than the love of other humans or/and animals--which enables the making of billions. Egomania rules. It's an illness.

The common message underlying all the issues--what we must "demand" [= focus on coming]: is the end to this era of narcissistic, egomanic money-love ruling all the nations [except maybe--what, Sweden?] The love of money, if allowed to continue, will destroy the earth. AMERICA LOVES YOU, Occupiers of Wall Street. Keep up the inspiring, phenomenal birth of the Peaceful Revolution.

Focus on the rapid end to the lovers of money ruling the world. We must ask those among the lovers of other humans and of animals and the planet's beautiful trees, rivers, oceans, etc. to lead. They will only do so reluctantly because they invest heavily in love, in their personal lives [and receive abundantly]--and they will only take a few years out of their lives so filled with love to take the time to lead, and then they will want to leave the job to the next reluctant leader/s. The framers of the Constitution never intended leaders to be paid. They themselves were not paid.

Keep our reach wide because this is truly the end to the materialism reignitied in the 80's.
Rember our history: we DID have an era of modern American enlightenment, crushed by the fundies of the 80's and on. This is the return of that--if we can remain peaceful and let go of egos.
