I believe in freedo...I believe in proactive change. I believe in freedom of expression, of ideas, of politics, of marriage, of... Get the idea? However, I don't believe in whiny ass attention getters promoting drama and otherwise smearing a genuine cause. Don't even get me started on the fake police brutality bullshit. So... FUCK THAT NURSE! (Hey, I figured out whether or not I was pissed) <br /><br />No, not everyone standing out there can tell you why it's a good idea, why they should be there, why it started in the first place. No, not all of the demands the Occupy movement has made are correct... Shit some of them don't make a damn lick of sense. What amazes me about it, is that people woke up and said, "This is wrong, I should do something about it." and then did something. That *enough* people thought that and then followed through that thought the news noticed, and other people noticed. There are people, maybe not the best educated, *DOING* something. That's enough to make me happy. Maybe enough to see some change. Definitely enough that the movers and shakers noticed and THAT is an amazing thing.Critterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00810762946587596719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150330670363169273.post-30513095661417239112011-10-14T18:01:42.479-06:002011-10-14T18:01:42.479-06:00Very interesting.

Being free doesn't mean being free of the effort it takes to be educated on the issues or being active in voting etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150330670363169273.post-39816382883026917372011-10-14T15:01:12.093-06:002011-10-14T15:01:12.093-06:00Free at Last!

Definite leadership. I get the idea, but they are approaching it through collectivism and that just does not work. You need a strong, unified, coherent voice with solutions.<br />2. Focus on ending the federal reserve, or at least an audit of that private institution. <br /> a. write your congressman in both the senate and house, write your mayor, talk to your local officials, talk to your neighbors<br /> b. request a meeting with said officials and educate them as to why this must stop<br /> c. do some research and follow the money. Figure out ways to file court cases against these politicians and bureaucratic agents for treason!<br />3. Demand that Glass-Steagall be enforced once again.<br />4. Demand that all derivative debts and federal debts be cleared. We DON'T OWN THAT DEBT!<br />5. Demand that the shareholders and owners of the Federal Reserve, once audited, be brought to justice and tried for theft, collusion, and treason<br />6. Demand your congressmen return to using their power of the purse and having direct accountability for economic policy decision making<br />7. Repeal the super congress<br />8. Demand transparency in our military budget<br /><br />ok? This is a short list, its a start, but these are definite necessities to be addressed! Without tackling these issues we cannot hope to save the Republic!Matthew Drobnicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150330670363169273.post-81957329415367317912011-10-14T12:47:47.064-06:002011-10-14T12:47:47.064-06:00Thanks Jesse for a nice outlook on this. The fact ...Thanks Jesse for a nice outlook on this. The fact of the whole matter is: People can get as pissed as they want and occupy whatever they want. Unless, as you said, they EDUCATE themselves, nothing will change. Puppet politics is NOT the way of the present, nor is it the way we need to be headed. I find it ironic that many there don't actually know WHY they are their, except to be there. <br /><br />We need an EDUCATED populace in order to pull ourselves out of this mess we are in. "We the People" have caused this social disorder because:<br />We fail to hold the State accountable to the instrusive actions of the Federal Government. <br />WE FAIL to hold the Federal Government accountable to the Constitution (Yes I have read it - more than once) and bill of rights.<br />WE, fail to stand up for our rights<br />WE, fail to stand up to the government when they tell us we cant do that but we know we can.<br />WE FAIL, and therefore, the government OF the poepl, BY the people and FOR the people, will fail too.<br /><br />Tid bit - <br />Most States, cities and Towns across America are broke. However, they are ALL waiting to get GRANT money from the Federal Government to fix their problems. WTF -- REALLY--- What problems are ever fixed by robbing Petere to pay Paul? If the Federal Government is BORROWING money to give out Grant money to states, isn't that just putting a bigger strain on the working class to pay more taxes to make up that difference so that the Feds can make the tax payer's state a better place to live by giving them grant money they dont have.. I dont get it.... it is EASY to unberstand....<br /><br />You are very correct. One must know what he is pissed about and know WHY that situation has happened. My wife and I understood that 5 years ago, that is why we are where we are and have what we have. It is also why we are getting what we are getting, so that we can have what we want when we need it.<br />MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150330670363169273.post-38248894039257713142011-10-14T11:25:36.714-06:002011-10-14T11:25:36.714-06:00I'm going to have to think about this one, but...I'm going to have to think about this one, but I'm pretty sure I'm pissed at that nurse...Critterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00810762946587596719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150330670363169273.post-4565059589833703302011-10-14T11:23:58.605-06:002011-10-14T11:23:58.605-06:00Fuck, yeah!

I was worried about your perspective based on your comments of the image I used on FB (I haven't seen if you have commented back to me), but you got the right idea and a step up from me being as you can actually be there. Your assessment is spot on based on the Occupy Wall Street website- absolutely no focus, just anger. Adbusters provides the only real focus and it definitely is a manipulation toward communism. Thanks for taking to the time to visit and share your thoughts! I wish I could have been there with you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
