Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

I would recommend reading the whole thing, it is long but makes and documents the case well.It has now become evident to a critical mass that the Republican and Democratic parties, along with all three branches of our government, have been bought off by a well-organized Economic Elite who are tactically destroying our way of life. The harsh truth is that 99% of the US population no longer has political representation. The US economy, government and tax system is now blatantly rigged against us.
Current statistical societal indicators clearly demonstrate that a strategic attack has been launched and an analysis of current governmental policies prove that conditions for 99% of Americans will continue to deteriorate. The Economic Elite have engineered a financial coup and have brought war to our doorstep. . . and make no mistake, they have launched a war to eliminate the US middle class.
To those who feel I am using extreme rhetoric, I ask you to please take a few minutes of your time to hear me out and research the evidence put forth. The facts are there for the unprejudiced, rational and reasoned mind to absorb. It is the unfortunate reality of our current crisis.
Unless we all unite and organize on common ground, our very way of life and the ideals that our country was founded upon will continue to unravel.
And from the same site,
AmpedStatus is part of a decentralized movement that has two key goals:
1) Break up the "Too Big To Fail" banks and Federal Reserve.
2) End the system of political bribery (campaign finance, lobbying, revolving door.)
Unless we organize and take decisive action on these two core common ground issues, we will all suffer the consequences of our inaction.

How do we end lobbying and prevent corporations from donating money to political candidates without violating the 1st amendment? It seems as though the only solutions to "stop wall street" involve bigger government.
End the system of political bribery.
You can lobby without bribes and blackmail. (but bribes and blackmail are so much more effective)
Lets see. One possibility is that no legislation that benefits business is allowed. Period.
Tie the Governments hands so they can DO NO FAVORS.

+rep to OP.
This is my feeling towards OWS the more I read. The RP movement was a lot more open and amorphous in the beginning as well. Now its pretty much about getting RP elected only. If OWS stays around for longer than this election cycle, and remains amorphous enough, I think it could be a good vehicle for the liberty agenda.
I see a lot of wedge issue divisiveness in a lot of these threads. "Well, what's really wrong is x and OWS isn't focusing on x." RP movement isn't any less collectivist than OWS. We need authentic strategic vehicles for spreading the R3volution and I haven't seen any good rationale on why we should just pass this opportunity up.
When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble?
When disaster comes to a city, has not the Lord caused it? Amos 3:6
Labels are important. Don't abandon your labels, or your cause will be lost. You need to be able to contrast your philosophy with that of the people who oppose you. The ones who stick to their labels will ultimately succeed in pushing their political agenda all the way.
