	The final product of the Occupy Strategy Group before the national gathering will show the items that are pre-conditions to greater action as the “first wave” of actions. Our efforts will re-shape the context of the National Gathering. We will do this by showing that the topics that make up the agenda of the National Gathering all lead back to corporate personhood & money as free speech. As these topics are each covered, the context will be about how each is helped along with the ~~elimnination~~ of corporate personhood & money as free speech. We will thus provide time frames and general actions to “End the Corporatocracy” [[End Corporatocracy: Time Frames & Actions]]. Additionally, we will have begun a campaign to connect the efforts of individuals & organizations to unite in solidarity in the struggle of our age to stage a successful revolution against the Privatized Corporcatic State of America.
