It is their time
Occupy Eugene still housing at Washington Jefferson Park, still providing medical care and marching, still feeding 600 daily. Homeless are steeping up to support Occupy and "house-ies" are learning a thing or two too. Eugene city council is scheduled to renew authorization to exception to camping ban. This "exception" expires otherwise December 15. Please visit Occupy Eugene and sign on line petition of support. If you live in Eugene area, please attend Monday rally prior to city council meeting 7PM -- stay for meeting too!
Harry Hopkins, head of the WPA under Roosevelt, created 4 million jobs in two months. How many jobs in journalism, education, health care, bridge repair and community centers could be created with the help of the Internet? Solutions are not lacking, only political will. Sharing and redistribution must replace the myths of the self-healing market and corporate beneficence.
Come and support a local family as they announce their intention to resist eviction.
Anarchist Economics

Ghandi organized a boycott of foreign (English) made cloth. A similar focused action here!
There is a way for the Occupy movement to fix the US.

Economists with their models could predict the values of economic variables but did not foresee the greatest economic crisis in 80 years. Neoclassicism is a self-contained theoretical model offering simple answers. Mechanical-deterministic neoclassicism serves the interests of capital and big corporations, well-organized and financed interests.
Our common treasury in the last 30 years has been captured by industrial psychopaths. That's why we're nearly bankrupt
The Cause, and solution to "99%" of our problems! :::
The world is being run by BONA-FIDE PSYCHOPATHS! Thanks 99%!!! 1% of the world is pathological lacking remorse for their evil deeds; politicians & CEOs goodbye!!! The Occupy Wall Street protesters demanding an end to the reign of the "one per cent" may have unwittingly stumbled on the crux of the issue. Science tells us that 99 per cent of humans have normal emotional function. One per cent are psychopaths. We ignore that truth at our peril.
Wow! just Wow!
No wonder we are bankrupt! and they want our seniors and disabled to pay the bill by cutting the services WE were taxed for our whole lives? the nerve of some people!!
Us is not a drunkard, it's a fucking hannibal lecter PSYCHOPATH "It puts the bailout on its skin, or it gets the whip again!"
Shark-like, they rise fast but risk killing the world economy, concludes a business professor.
Open letter to the Washington state legislature
My name is jack mor, I am a united states citizen and registered voter in Washington state. I am retired living on social security One of the "98%". I respectful request the legislature to consider the following matters at the next ensuing regular session
The annual Macy's Parade is 9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. this Friday. Let's Occupy it.
Last week, a courageous group left the Occupy Wall Street camp in New York City and started marching to Washington, DC. View short video and send this info to as many friends of the Occupations as you can.
Occupy Oakland calls for the blockade and disruption of the economic apparatus of the 1% with a coordinated shutdown of ports on the entire West Coast on December 12th. The 1% has disrupted the lives of longshoremen and port truckers and the workers who create their wealth, just as coordinated nationwide police attacks have turned our cities into battlegrounds in an effort to disrupt our Occupy movement.
According to InflationData.com, college tuition has increased 498% in the last 26 years, while overall consumer prices have increased only 115%. So while general prices have only doubled, college tuition is now five times more expensive. The embedded chart presents the same problem with additional data. The student loan industry is not helping students to afford these price increases, because the student loan industry is itself the cause of skyrocketing tuition increases.
Our entire political system from the politicians, the media and and the people who follow it is idiotic. They are wrong about basic facts of reality. They confuse economics with money & finance. The economy is our resource base, production & consumption, while finance is a system of management, and money is it's primary unit of measure. This system is failing to manage the economy and is why we are having financial crises. Alternatively we are at the greatest economic point in the history of human kind. We have access to more resources, more food production, and most advanced technology ever, yet there's not enough money to take care of everyone on the planet. The problem is money.
This is what mental illness looks like
Just received a mailer from Chase Bank that offers a "$125 gift card when you open a Chase Total Checking account," whatever that kind of account is. So I looked at the fine print....
Designed on the principle of 'Free Currencies - Free Markets - Free People - Free Planet', on 13 November 2011, the long-awaited Crom Alternative Currency System has finally been opened - in many ways a unique combination of a social network and payment system.
There is a meeting Saturday December 3rd, 2011, from 2:00 pm to 5:30 pm at the Capitol Hill library branch at 425 Harvard Ave. E., in Seattle. This meeting is for the demonstration being planned January 20th, 2012; at the Federal Courthouse at 700 Stewart street in Seattle. ( People and organizations involved, permits, porta potties, promotion, organizing, staging, sound, event speakers, entertainment, first aid, water, and stuff.)..(This event is not sponsored by the Seattle public Library. The meeting room holds 50 people and I would love to fill it up! Please inform interested people and organizations!) RSVP to
kennspace@yahoo.com to reserve your spot or just show up!
I have done this before and want to progress this demonstration, - and the reform of our government. (I have done the permits, porta potties and stuff before, but will be looking for someone who lives in Seattle to do this one. It will make more sense to elected officials that a "constituent" Seattle citizen is doing this. I will help pay for things but probably cannot afford to do it all.). Please help distribute this information to interested groups and people. I feel the unions, democratic party, republican party, churches, student groups, and "others" need to be informed this is happening. Please help communicate this meeting and demonstration in Seattle! If you can get this event posted to any community events calendars - that would help! This post explains my feelings more: link to open.salon.com
Thank YOU, Kenn Dzaman (Kenn Space) (I have also let as many Washington State lawmakers, the President, and many "others", and the Seattle Police and Washington State Patrol know; That a demonstration is happening January 20th, 2012 at 700 Stewart Street in downtown Seattle. As much as I can make it, it will be peaceful.). Capitol Hill Branch 425 Harvard Ave. E.
Santa Claus will be arriving at Pioneer Courthouse Square on Saturday, November 19, at 9:00 a.m. According to the Pioneer Courthouse Square website, there will be a "procession" to Pioneer Place Mall.
Call the mayor to call off police who are illegally preventing thousands of New Yorkers from re-occupying the park.
Good leaders and clear agendas must, indeed, emerge, but the best things that Portlanders did on Saturday night were that a) they found the courage to turn out in great numbers and b) they refused to be baited into giving critics an excuse to point accusing fingers at the protesters, but not at their predators.
The extended family as a kind of "self-help group" replaces the social state in the backward-oriented utopia of liberal-conservatism. Nothing hurts families more than the "rebuilding" or dismantling of the social state and the marketing of interpersonal relations justified with the keywords "globalization" and "location protection."
Move Your Money Day Protest #2 is a follow up to October 6th's move your money day and will be repeating every month until the job is done and US Bank, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Well's Fargo and the other bank monopolies are bankrupt.
This months Move Your Money Day will be on Friday December 2, 2011 at 4PM at JP Morgan Chase on 39th/Hawthorne to coincide with people first paycheck of the month so we may catch them as they deposit their money.
Tensions remain elevated at Occupy Portland as the police could raid our camp at any time. We are all very tired after having peacefully held off riot cops all night. WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS, of people, food, and winter gear.
Some videos have already gone up. Please watch and share.
