14. Dissent is the highest form of patirotism, oh how quaint

Now is the time for all men of good will to come to the aid of their country. I forget the exact wording and the author and the time period, but it's time we all figured out what to do about our government that has become too tyrannical and is working against our best interests as people.

OWS impresses me as the BEST HOPE us Americans have to RECLAIM OUR DEMOCRACY. It is our RIGHT to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Those that erode or take this away are simply traitors to the best of our human nature.

One of the many wise well conceived angles to OWS is that it is leaderless and spokesman-less, and functions about as democratically as possible for a group of human beings of that sized group.

One thing I remember in my quest for business management wisdom (most of which was humanistic and thus obsolete. the current management vogue is might makes right) is that the probability of a valid and wise decision is best achieved as the product of a large group of people.

OWS is beautiful and deserves as much support as average Americans can give. (All I've done so far is buy 2 yard signs, one bumper sticker, and one local moveon meet up that fizzled into nothing.)
