why should corporations be forgiven for fucking up the environment? they have been. Why should they be forgiven for gambling our money and helping republicans to bankrupt this nation? they have been.

They feel that they are entitled to a 'free' education, at the expense of everyone else.

That's because there is no one, unified message. Yes, it is about corruption and purchased politicians.

The Tea Party doesnt have ONE unified message. Neither does the DNC the RNC or any of the other political groups.

quote:

But then you talk to people and they talk about the "greedy 1% who don't want to share the wealth". They talk about losing their jobs and getting foreclosed on their homes and somehow that is the fault of the "greedy 1%" instead of their own faults for borrowing more than they can afford to pay and living above their means.

It is their faults. Its been documented numerous times about how people were lied too, costs were hidden, balloon payments never disclosed.

How would you like it if your Dr started doing that to you? Would you understand everythng He told you if you were facing a major disease or surgery? Perhaps we all should just start going with the attitude of... you figure it the fuck out on your own. Because thats what banks and mortgage lenders did to people with ARM loans.

quote:

I understand their frustration, but they are taking their misery out on the wrong people. They should be marching down Pennsylvania Ave. in Washington, DC and camping out in front of the Capitol building and demanding to be heard, and then kicking every last one of the incumbents out of office that voted to allow this crap. Yes, businesses have gotten very involved in lobbying, but then there are things that we can do. We can stop doing business with those companies if we are against them. If you don't like large corporations, don't buy Apple products or PCs new. Don't buy Abercrombie or Hollister new. Heck, don't buy anything new unless it comes from a local mom and pop OR how about purchasing stock in those companies and showing up at the shareholders meetings and voting. There are a lot of different ways that people can make a difference, but OWS just gives the appearance of a bunch of whiny losers with too much time on their hands.

If marching in Washington would have the effect that marching on Wall Street is having, they would have done that instead. Washington doesnt listen until people start hitting their wallets. And thats why the wall street march is so effective... and why people like you are so rabid against them.

Unh... it seems to me that if you set up a free food dispensary with a nice menu like that virtually anywhere in the country you could have parks and streets overflowing with people without even any need to have a "cause".

Is there a method here?

They dont have a unified message because they have all been phuqed over by myriads of people.
The government, the banks, insurance, loans, education, healthcare, brokers, mortgages, corporations, bosses and businesses, the world is in a fucking mess and why
people expect to be able to live on their wages, not inconsiderable is it?
the american dream has turned into the american nightmare and its being felt around the world. Yanno other countries are joining in
this isnt just hippes pissing off the snobs, and the ass suckers, its REAL americans, wether you like em or not

gona grab a gun and go round em up??? cheer for the people getting hit with bullets and dealing with skull fractures and broken jaws, for daring not to kiss corprate ass,
happy to see them getting gassed and shot at, for protesting their grievances ? how many have caused violence in nearly five weeks of occupation 24/7 in one of the biggest cities in the world.

The ignorance and arrogance would make me vomit, but..Im putting my dislike into doing something positive, for the people that DO count and not because they have guns to do their talking for them

For a group of people with no guns, no money and no power, people are awfully afraid.

i see a lot of bravado advocating using live rounds against them , but its not even a question for the majority of protestors.
macho grunting and shooting wont come from the protestors.

Have no doubt, it will come. But not the way most think it will happen.

Proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that she does not know fuck all about who she is talking about...most of these people have already been fucked over by the system,most of them do not,or no longer ,have the wherewithal to play in that league...that is why they are there.
There American dreM has been hijacked by greedy ceo's of the companies you would have them "investing" in...they can not afford the ante to play at that table.....were they still able to do so,methinks they wouldn't be down there acting like a "bunch of whiny losers with too much time of their hands"

There is a gentleman running around OWS and giving professional haircuts and shaves so people look nice and feel nice. Good Food is Good Food...

Hey, I went to the General Assembly in my local Occupy. Guess what guys?

Business Professionals, Lawyers, Journalists, Poets, Musicians, Students, Elderly Folk are getting together and becoming politically active. I bring food and I have been given food. Formulating a set of rules based off of meritocracy is not a difficult premise.

Using fast reply although a quick, Hi Pyro!!!

Considering the threads I have been reading on here today, I am waiting to see how it takes for this to turn into a fat bashing thread.

On topic, I figure if you are generous enough to serve food to random strangers, you ought to be generous enough to serve the food to............random strangers!

Define "credible".

I would say I've personally spoken to about 5-10 each time I've been down there (I'm not down there to protest or to loiter...I actually have business to accomplish downtown), for a total of about 70 people. Is it a huge amount? No, nor did I claim it to be that I have PERSONALLY spoken with.

I'd likely request that Ron and Mike tell me how many that they have personally talked to.

This joker is about as concerned with the OWSer`s sustenence as I am about a tea-bagger`s fat gut.

With nothing intelligent or meaningful left to say,the rightists only have childish insults and childish whining.

Isn't it odd how this story is based on a blog post by a a guy who works for the American Enteprise Intitute* and who lives in DC?

Well, all except you, of course. Sucking up to corporate teat suckers is part and parcel of that game, for losers.

If you want to feed those whiny bitches, do it with your own money and quit voting for the bastards that steal from the rest of us for their benefit.
