On September 17, we want to see 20,000 people
flood into lower Manhattan, set up tents, kitchens,
peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a
few months.
 If we hang in there, 20,000-strong, week after week
against every police and National Guard effort to
expel us from Wall Street, it would be impossible for
Obama to ignore us. Our government would be
forced to choose publicly between the will of the
people and the lucre of the corporations.

Occupy Wall Street is a people-powered movement
that began on September 17, 2011 in Liberty Square
in Manhattan’s Financial District, and has spread to
over 100 cities in the United States and actions in
over 1,500 cities globally. #OWS is fighting back
against the corrosive power of major banks and
multinational corporations over the democratic
process, and the role of Wall Street in creating an
economic collapse that has caused the greatest
recession in generations.

The Investment Theory of Politics
A political theory developed by University of Massachusetts professor Thomas
Ferguson. The theory states that, since money driven political systems are
expensive and burdensome to ordinary voters,
policy is created by competing coalitions of
investors, not voters. According to the theory, political parties (and
the issues they campaign on) are created entirely for business interests,
separated by the interests of numerous factors such as labor-intensive and
capital-intensive, and free market and protectionist businesses. In rare cases,
labor unions sometimes act as major investors such as with the creation of the
Labour Party in Britain, but are generally overshadowed by corporations.

Did a Harvard Economics Class Cause
the Financial Crisis?
Harvard grads frequently go on to highly influential jobs on Wall
Street, at think tanks, and in government. A group of
approximately 70 students who walked out of professor N.
Gregory Mankiw's ( advisor to President George W. Bush )
Economics 10 class this week in solidarity with the OccupyWS
protests. According to students
“the biased nature of Economics 10 contributes to and
symbolizes the increasing economic inequality in America, we are
walking out of your class today both to protest your inadequate
discussion of basic economic theory and to lend our support to a
movement that is changing American discourse on economic
injustice”

Economic System:
Ownership & Types of
Properties
Islamic Economic System
Western Systems
 Three types of ownership
 Capitalism - Individuals or
companies can own anything
 Individual
and everything. Multinational
 Public
companies are ‘free’ to own
 State
public properties such as
 Oil, Gas1, non-delectable minerals2 etc
water, oil, gas, parks etc even
and anything on which society depends
living things are owned.
and people will disperse in pursuit for it,  Communism – State owns
remains in public ownership
everything.
If these were owned individually this will deny the public from benefiting
from these huge resources, creating misery for the common man
Probably the most well known example of the global conflict over
water privatization is the case of Cochabamba, Bolivia. It is a
shining example of the conflict over the privatization of water
services, and the persistence of the water giants to make money
any way they can. Cochabamba lies in a semi-desert region of
Bolivia, making water a scarce and precious resource. However, in
1999 the World Bank recommended privatization of
Cochabamba's municipal water supply company, Servicio
Municipal del Agua Potable y Alcantarillado (SENIAPA). "Bank
officials directly threatened to withhold $600 million in
international debt relief if Bolivia didn't privatize Cochabamba's
public water system." This was to be done through a concession to
one of Bechtel’s subsidiaries - International Water. Bechtel is a
U.S. corporation based in San Francisco.

Ownership of Life
Even living organisms are “owned”.
oIn 1971 a GE scientist applied for a patent for an oileating bacteria.
oThe US Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) rejected the
application because life forms are “product of nature” and
such cannot be patented.
oGE went to US Supreme Court in June 1980 which
allowed the patent, in a five-to-four decision.
oToday many pharmaceutical companies like Merck,
Pfizer, Bristol-Myers etc hold patents on dozens of
bacteria, fungi and other life forms.

Islamic Economic System
Democracy
Political system gets cleaned from  Corrupt people are attracted towards
corrupt people
politics like bees towards nectar
The representatives cannot use the
system to cover up their corruption by
legislating laws for their own interests
“Professional politicians” find no reason
to invest millions as the job of the
representative is to be serving the
Ummah rather than a source of money
making and exerting power
 The process of law making gives
parliamentarians the authority to make
laws to not only protect their interests
rather legitimize their corruption
 “Professional politicians” invest millions
of rupees in elections and rear
“Ghundas”, to keep sincere people out
of the political arena
 Once in power, the corrupt entourage of these “Professional Politicians” i.e. the
local “Ghundas” become untouchables, free to take “Bhatta” and kidnap for ransom
