Dear Occupy: Forget the camps, push amendments
Dear Occupy/Anonymous/other departments of the upcoming revolution:
Forget the camps. We don’t need them anymore. They worked, they got the world’s attention, and income inequality is now a central issue of the presidential campaign, and the national conversation as a whole. Occupy 1, oligarchy 0. Well, oligarchy 24,024, but still…
But the effort put into sustaining the camps,...

Memo Leaked, Banks Plan Attack On Occupy Wall Street
