Grasping the Occupy Movement, and what it means today.

Occupy model was working, and working well enough that the Status Quo was so utterly scared of it that it had to get it all shut down. The Status Quo wants us to all believe that the current system is all we have, and so we have to make thiings work within it, making only little tiny changes as we go. The Occupy movement demonstrated this to be a fallacy, and invited everyone to not only envision different models, but to experiment bringing them into being.

Occupy is today's way for being engaged in the process!

Occupy is today’s way for being engaged in the process!

In the LGBT movement, the parallel for Occupy is coming out and being visible. Being a part of the dialogue rather than living a double standard or a lie. That isn’t too hard to compehend, is it?

Why does the 99% become 41%: Occupy the voting booth!

Why does the 99% become 41%: Occupy the voting booth!

I’ve been quite captured by the Occupy movement, and have written multiple times that I believe it marks the most important grass roots political movement since the anti-war efforts of the ’60’s. But one thing has been nagging at me. If we are the 99%, how is it that we let our government get so broke that it is selling us down the river?
