I had a question for the entire occupy Oakland. I truly support what you’re doing and the cause but why don’t all the occupy movements combine forces and camp out in Washington DC or Sacramento? What power does the city of Oakland contribute to the rest of the nation? I understand you guys are soldiers in the fight against greed and a corrupt system but you’re fighting the war in a location where no real troops are located. If the enemy is the government I would think Washington DC is … Continued

So I suggest that you all watch “INSIDE JOB”. On the plus side I can honestly say it’s a Matt Damon movie. It … Continued

I would like to apologize to those at the general assembly who voted for the joint labor march and rally this Saturday if what I said helped convince you to support it. I was one of the two people who presented the proposal and was the main defender of it against certain criticisms.

Occupy by Drew Imagination   I don’t even know why I care anymore. Flipping through forgotten memories, this textbook bleeds like an obituary. Never knowing when, or how, or why. We were brought into this world naked and pure, but humans weren’t prepared for this sorcery. Corporations, private banks, over-the-counter derivatives, trickle-down economics and Wall Street endeavors… are no match … Continued
