At the Occupy National Gathering, the Occupy movement is currently engaged in what they are calling a “visioning process.” Several groups of 40-50 people each have formed and are discussing visions for the future of American democratic society. The visions are going to be synthesized by facilitators and a consensus-based vision for the movement will be produced by the end of the Fourth of July.
Below are two live streams that you can click on to view what is happening in Franklin Square in Philadelphia:
The occupiers are not discussing tactics. They are not concerned with the means. They are only focused on throwing out ideas for the kind of society that people in the movement would like to live in some day. It is an incredible display of participatory democracy. The nature of it is incredibly subversive and insurrectionary. It is a symptom and demonstration of the fact that Congress no longer is an institution these people can count on to effect meaningful change. They have given up on representatives and believe they have to be the change they want to see happen. They are the change they have been waiting for.
Tune in and, also, participate at OpenAssembly.org. The facilitators have made it possible for people all over the country to contribute ideas to the “visioning process.”
Note: I am here watching this unfold. I have a professional video camera that I am using to document this process. I will be cutting video together to present a short documentary on what unfolded here today.

There are two critical issues for Occupy:
1) Global warming
2) Education
I’ve discussed them here:

The most important thing to do is protect our liberties and freedoms. There are abundant problems but this is the number one thing that all other problems rest upon. Without this, we will be castrated even more from any effectiveness. We have lost our sovereignty already and that was done with the PRIVATE FEDERAL RESERVE ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY. And their puppet forking our rights. Obama is a Trojan horse. Hear me. Im sorry, it’s true.
Obama is no friend of the people. I know people are happy about health care but it is not Single Payer. The NUMBER ONE THING ABOUT SINGLE PAYER IS IT STOPS BANKRUPTCIES AND FORECLOSURES AND PRESERVES LIFE SAVINGS AND ****SAVES LIVES****. You fall down ill or unemployed or old or just behind NOW, and you will be liquidating your properties and homes to the banking establishment faster then the computers can churn out the info gleaned from a million sources of data mining.
The banking establishment aka WALL STREET owning and operating the Medical Health care industry, who have completely captured what was our government, and your bank, mortgage holder, etc. will tender your accounts to them because…….they are the same people. You will read about it AFTER THE FACT.
WAKE UP!! They are turning America into a war colony machine for their use globally and they are taking ALLLLLLL THE WEALTH AS FAST AS THEY CAN.
THIS IS ABOUT WORLD DOMINATION AND IF YOU DON’T KNOW THAT YOU ARE BLIND, DEAF, AND DUMB.
NEXT WILL BE THE DRAFT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
HEAR ME NOW!!
