I want to urge everyone to call our council members and mayor and support the right of folks to sleep overnight and occupy long beach! Just called them....Suja's office was wary. Mayor's office asked for my address and phone number. We need to represent! I showed up at the tail end of thursday's bluff park meeing and hope to visit again soon,

The Occupy movements are heartening to one who has been an activist on this issue for over 15 years. We are on the verge of a new economy with distributed internet-based manufacturing and robotics and this paradigm shift has already begun. Guaranteed Minimum Income is the right of every citizen in the forthcoming post scarcity economy and should extend to every person in what is currently the Second and Third Worlds.
Support for all!

TAX THE SUPER RICH!

GUARANTEED MINIMUM INCOME
Guaranteed Minimum Income - stage I - 2015 - to replace unemployment benefits
Stage I tax scheme - to be funded in part from 10% tax on manufacturing by (non-home) 3D printers
Guaranteed Minimum Income - stage II - 2020 - to replace all benefits and encompass those ineligible for benefits
Stage II tax scheme - to be funded from 50% tax on assemblers* (programmable nanotechnology manufacturing units, i.e. advanced 3D assemblage) - to be distributed equally to each citizen **
[note that at this stage - starting in 2015 - 3D printers will have already provided cheap $2000-$50,000 household humanoid robotics due to the currently developing ability of 3D printers to print electronic circuitboards]
* also known as "molecular assemblers" (Wikipedia) or "nanofactories
** estimated time by Eric Drexler (1986) for assembler proliferation is 6 months, so a political apparatus must be in place prior to this event to ensure social stability

My letter to the mayor
Dear Mr. Foster,
As a participant in the occupy Long Beach protest, the first thing I discovered is that our right to peaceably assemble is abridged by city ordinances which prohibit us from pitching a tent in Lincoln Park or being on the premises after 10 pm and clearly violates the first amendment which states that "Congress (and every level of government including state, county, and city government exercising legislative authority is implied by the lawmaking power that it limits) shall make no law...abridging...the right of the people peaceably to assemble..."
Sincerely Yours,
Jonathan Davidson
