<p><span style="font-size: medium"><strong>Proposed List of Demands For Occupy Wall Street Movement -</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be  met by ending &quot;Freetrade&quot; by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported  goods entering the American market to level the playing field for  domestic family farming and domestic manufacturing as most nations that  are dumping cheap products onto the American market have radical wage  and environmental regulation advantages. Another policy that must be  instituted is raise the minimum wage to twenty dollars an hr.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system. To  do this all private insurers must be banned from the healthcare market  as their only effect on the health of patients is to take money away  from doctors, nurses and hospitals preventing them from doing their jobs  and hand that money to wall st. investors.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand four: Free college education.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand five: Begin a fast track process to bring the fossil fuel  economy to an end while at the same bringing the alternative energy  economy up to energy demand.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand seven: One trillion dollars in ecological restoration planting  forests, reestablishing wetlands and the natural flow of river systems  and decommissioning of all of America&#8217;s nuclear power plants.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand eight: Racial and gender equal rights amendment.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand nine: Open borders migration. anyone can travel anywhere to work and live.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of  a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an  independent and party observers system.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all.  Debt forgiveness of sovereign debt, commercial loans, home mortgages,  home equity loans, credit card debt, student loans and personal loans  now! All debt must be stricken from the &quot;Books.&quot; World Bank Loans to all  Nations, Bank to Bank Debt and all Bonds and Margin Call Debt in the  stock market including all Derivatives or Credit Default Swaps, all 65  trillion dollars of them must also be stricken from the &quot;Books.&quot; And I  don&#8217;t mean debt that is in default, I mean all debt on the entire planet  period.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Demand thirteen: Allow all workers to sign a ballot at any time  during a union organizing campaign or at any time that represents their  yeah or nay to having a union represent them in collective bargaining or  to form a union.</strong></p>
<p><strong>These demands will create so many jobs it will be completely impossible to fill them without an open borders policy.</strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://conservativedailynews.com/2011/10/occupy-wall-street-vs-tea-party-whod-ya-rather/protests2/" rel="attachment wp-att-22207"><img style="width: 72px;height: 72px" src="http://conservativedailynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/protests2-150x150.jpg" alt="" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-22207" /></a>Recently I <a href="http://conservativedailynews.com/2011/10/occupy-wall-street-vs-tea-party-whod-ya-rather/">posted a piece</a> on the difference between tea party rallies and the Occupy Wall Street protesters.&nbsp; Perhaps annoyed by the tone of my piece, an anonymous commenter tipped me off to the list of &quot;demands&quot; of the OWS group in order to prove that the movement is purposeful and coherent.</p>
<p>As it turns out, the protesters have managed to create a communication wing of sorts.&nbsp; They call themselves the<a href="http://nycga.cc/2011/09/30/declaration-of-the-occupation-of-new-york-city/"> NYC General Assembly</a> (not the governing one, in case you&#8217;re wondering). They say they are an<strong> &quot;open, participatory and horizontally organized process through which we  are building the capacity to constitute ourselves in public as  autonomous collective forces within and against the constant crises of  our times.&quot;</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; Just reading that sentence makes my head spin.&nbsp; Part of their horizontal process has been to create what they call their Declaration of the Occupation of New York City.&nbsp; Those crazy kids and their fancy titles!&nbsp; It is less a manifesto than a list of grievances against the atrocities of corporations.&nbsp; No one specific, just&#8230;corporations.&nbsp; Man, corporations are horrible!&nbsp; I mean, aren&#8217;t they just the worst? Here it is, in its entirety.&nbsp; There is just too much to say about this document, so read for yourself.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium"><strong>Declaration of the Occupation of New York City</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass  injustice, we must not&nbsp;lose sight of what brought us together. We write  so that all people who feel wronged by&nbsp;the corporate forces of the world  can know that we are your allies.</strong></p>
<p><strong>As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of  the human race&nbsp;requires the cooperation of its members; that our system  must protect our rights, and&nbsp;upon corruption of that system, it is up  to the individuals to protect their own rights,&nbsp;and those of their  neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from&nbsp;the  people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the  people and&nbsp;the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the  process is determined by&nbsp;economic power. We come to you at a time when  corporations, which place profit over&nbsp;people, self-interest over  justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We&nbsp;have  peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known.</strong></p>
<p><strong>They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the&nbsp;original mortgage.<br />
They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives&nbsp;exorbitant bonuses.<br />
They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace  based on age, the&nbsp;color of one&rsquo;s skin, sex, gender identity and sexual  orientation.<br />
They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming&nbsp;system through monopolization.<br />
They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless animals, and actively hide these practices.<br />
They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay&nbsp;and safer working conditions.<br />
They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education,&nbsp;which is itself a human right.<br />
They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut&nbsp;workers&rsquo; healthcare and pay.<br />
They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the&nbsp;culpability or responsibility.<br />
They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to  get them out of&nbsp;contracts in regards to health insurance.<br />
They have sold our privacy as a commodity.<br />
They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the  press.&nbsp;They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products  endangering lives in pursuit of&nbsp;profit.<br />
They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have&nbsp;produced and continue to produce.<br />
They have donated large sums of money to politicians, who are responsible for regulating them.<br />
They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil.<br />
They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save  people&rsquo;s lives or provide relief&nbsp;in order&nbsp;to protect investments that  have already turned a substantial&nbsp;profit.<br />
They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive&nbsp;ingredients in pursuit of profit.<br />
They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the&nbsp;media.<br />
They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with&nbsp;serious doubts about their guilt.<br />
They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad.&nbsp;They have  participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas.<br />
They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government&nbsp;contracts. *</strong></p>
<p><strong>To the people of the world,</strong></p>
<p><strong>We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge&nbsp;you to assert your power.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space;  create a process to&nbsp;address the problems we face, and generate solutions  accessible to everyone.</strong></p>
<p><strong>To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of  direct democracy, we&nbsp;offer support, documentation, and all of the  resources at our disposal.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Join us and make your voices heard!</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>*These grievances are not all-inclusive.</em></strong></p>
<p>After all that fuss they mean to tell us this document is not all-inclusive? There&#8217;s more?</p>
