As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known. – Declaration of the Occupation of New York/ Official General Assembly website of OWS
Dominant Social Theme: A sincere statement of hope and protest delivered by the 99 percent.
Free-Market Analysis: With increasing fervor, the "first official document" of the Occupy Wall Street protests has been circulated and posted. It was actually adopted on Sept. 29th but is now being publicized with increasing energy and translated as well into such languages as French, Slovak, Spanish and German. It is a disaster.
The document contains not a single mention about central banking, which is at the root of modern day sociopolitical and economic problems. Over the past week, we've written extensively on the need for any successful protest to focus on the ability of the Anglosphere elite to print money from nothing to fund its endless drive for world government.
