Re: "12th & Cambie, 'Occupied, for now,'" Nov. 4.
The Occupy Vancouver demonstration should've disbanded after exactly a month, and then they, as a group, could've designated the entire month of September of every year for the same protest while doing a better job of maintaining a stable and "pure in ideology" group of Occupy protesters. Furthermore, perhaps each year the Occupy protest could have a focused theme, such as a philosophical/philanthropic question that everyone, including the news media, can muse on and contribute ideas.
Next year it could be: "In a solely moral sense-contrary to our current capitalist perspective-exactly how does one justly earn $100 billion?" It would be a befitting and worthy theme question, for one perhaps should ponder the concept that to "earn" so many billions of dollars, a gratuitously rich person would be performing some super humanitarian feat for Earth's populace or the much-wanting eco-systems around most of the world; eliminating starvation, or alleviating a great deal of the mass suffering (e.g., through the charitable mass-distribution of much-needed medicines around so much of this world.
