Latest developments in the global Occupy protests

How come no one is occupying the Federal Reserve?

Because it is waking up and attracting the growing numbers who are alarmed at the growing wealth and power of a smaller and smaller number of people and the increasing hostility of a government that no longer sees itself as servant of the people, the occupation is a high priority target everywhere for the paid thugs who serve this tiny number of very sick, greedy, and unscrupulous people.

No doubt the agents provocateurs raising hell inside these tent cities and pretending to be part of the occupation movement will earn their licenses to kill and the get-out-of-jail -free cards they so ardently desire from this, which will enable them to get away with the kinds of crime that psychopaths always enjoy, but that always make normal healthy people want to puke..

Its the same story everywhere, and its been going on for a long time elsewhere in the world. Now its America's turn to start living in a brutal police state in helpless squalor while a tiny elite with all the power and all the wealth watch in amusement as all the rest of us, the 99%, live as "trash" in our occupation tent cities to be, as in Tienanmen Square, bulldozed into trash compactors along with our tents and meager personal property..

Election Day 2012 is around the corner folks! Time to remove from all levels of government any elected official who does not uphold, defend and protect the Constitution of the United States of America! YOU HAVE THE POWER!!!

How sad that all the reporting is on the interactions with the police. The issues that the occupiers are concerned with (inequality, corporations treated as persons, the influence of lobbyists on legislation, etc.) are neglected.

It's time the american public woke up and stopped the crooked politicians from raping them and the country.!!!

1 simple change would fix this Wall-Street $ White House. make it illeagal for members of the Senate and Congress to participate in "insider trading" they should follow the same laws as their employers "The Tax Payers".

My Brothers Do you know zeitgeist movement? May be Zeitgeist movement is a solution for you and me do your own research. Today almost all world media in hands of New World Order puppeteers like Murdoch. They manipulate and brainwash people, many of us don’t understand or realize that we all victims of evil plans of NWO. Democrats and Republicans have both failed us. No one is looking out for OUR interests. Next, the Federal Reserve is a Private Bank that issues our currency and controls our Nations Credit. This is against Constitutional Law. It is the Treasury Department's job to do this. Recently the Federal Reserve printed Trillions of Dollars causing severe inflation. Then the Government used this money to give it to already Rich corporations as our tax dollars. This rigged markets and caused economic collapse around the entire world. These Corporations in turn used that money to give themselves bonuses.1. It consists of Homeless people, hippies, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, high school students. College students, adults, children, teenagers, democrats, republicans, libertarians, moderates, jobless people, people with jobs... every type of person there is.2. It is In every Major city around the entire world.3. All the protests in America and some other parts of the world are peaceful. But not every part of the world is protesting peacefully. Some countries have over thrown their dictators.4. it’s time to mobilize and aggressively move on common sense political reforms.We’ve had enough of… The Two-Party Oligarchy,Big Government,Big Corporate Power,The Concentration of Power It’s time to… ,Decentralize,Create New Political Parties,Restore the Rule of Law.The economic top one-tenth of one percent of the global population has launched an economic war on us. They are hoarding $39 Trillion in investible wealth, not counting the vast sums they have hidden in offshore accounts. In the United States, we now have the highest and most severe inequality of wealth in our nation’s history. While there is a record number of American citizens currently living paycheck to paycheck, in debt, unemployed, underemployed, without healthcare, on food stamps and in poverty, as our society is breaking down, global bankers have taken our tax dollars and given themselves all-time record-breaking bonuses. The same people who destroyed our economy have been rewarded with trillions of dollars in national wealth. It is now evident that both political parties and all three branches of government, along with the mainstream corporate media, have been bought off by global economic elite. As a broad-based network representing people across the political spectrum, we are working together to reach common ground and fight for pivotal political reforms. As long as the economy and government are rigged in favor of the top economic 0.1%, we will all lose.Here’s a general outline of our common ground platform:Enforce RICO Laws,Break Up the Big Banks,End the Fed,Break Up the Mainstream Media,Shut the Revolving Door,End Closed Door Lobbying,Increase Government Transparency,End Corporate Personhood, Amend Campaign Finance,Verify All Votes,Investigate War Profiteers,Investigate War Crimes,End the Wars,Reopen the 9/11 Investigation,Restore Civil Liberties,Uphold the Constitution,Clean Air, Water & Food,Reduce Healthcare Costs, Profiteering,Make Healthcare a Human Right,Improve Education For All, Reduce Costs,Reform Prison System,Reform Drug Laws,Immigration Reform,Rebuild Infrastructure,Protect Internet Freedom,Empower States’ Rights,End Corporate Welfare,Raise Taxes on Richest 0.1%,Reduce Taxes for 99%.These are the core common ground issues that we must urgently rally around and support. Unless we organize and take decisive action, we will all suffer the consequences of our collective inaction. Any politician who does not urgently move on these issues must be voted out of office and replaced by people who will aggressively fight on this fronts.

I find it funny that none of the congressmen or senate are commenting about the protesters in fact they are silent about jobs etc..

There should be no such thing as a career politician.........One term, low pay, no benefits...IT'S A PUBLIC SERVICE POSITION......not a career.

END LOBBYING

The wealth gap too extreme, the banks not lending, the cash rich corporations not hiring, the politicians failing and the Unions corrupt and greedy. The system needs recalibrating. Carry on protesters, just keep the Unions out!

Quoted from OldMcDonald

To everybody out there blaming Obama, Bush or any other singular government official as the cause for America's prosperity getting flushed down the toilet. You're missing the big picture. The situation is simple: The near entirety of the US government is corrupt and run by political Bribe-takers bought and paid for by people who have amassed the most wealth overall in this country (Top 1% of the U...............S Population). These politicians, now solely representing their funders and not the voters turn around and pass legislation that gives the Super Rich here every advantage possible, including free money (Quantitative Easing/Bailouts), lower taxes and zero accountability for their actions. In order to prevent revolts from the increased burden to the unrepresented in this country, the Super Rich have set up a bogus political party to siphon off and redirect the anger of the masses (The Republicans) and an ineffectual party (The Democrats) to cave to “republican pressure” while pretending to care about the masses. In addition, they have co-opted and bought out nearly all of the mainstream media in order to filter out any info that would lay the blame on the true culprit, instead leaving the majority of America divided and focusing their energies on decoy scapegoats and partisan nonsense. The super rich and those they pay for care not one bit about jobs or the welfare of the country they grew from. They merely care about having as many digits as possible for their bank statement balance. And if that means the middle/working class will eventually need to vanish, then so be it. The entire system is broken.

Seems to me I read somewhere that we the people have the right to peacefully assemble. Maybe that was before they decided not to follow the constitution!!!!

glass-steagal act needs to be put back into place, corporations not allowed to donate campaign funds (stupid move one the Supremes shame on them), lobbyists abolished.

The First Amendment never sleeps...

Neither does the second.....

Remember that!

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Take away the tax breaks for Political Donations, Mandatory 25% Tax to Politicians on All Donations, No More Buying your way to Political Freedom, A Lifetime Position!!

First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,or prohibitiong the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech,or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the governement for redress of grievances.

A personal observation of what has occurred over the last 3 years:

The Lehmans got bailed out . . . and the Joneses got kicked out . .

Maybe someday they will figure out the real problem. The professional politician. Keep sending them back thinking things will be different Isn't that a sign of some kind of disorder?
