Here come the haters in 3... 2... 1....

Viva la revolution! We haven't had a good one in a long time. We're all soft and brainwashed.

"the american fall."

Get the money out of politics.

Corporations can't make political contributions. So what do they do? Create a PAC. Bullshit.

They DO have a point. They are protesting WALL STREET *not* capitalism.

Real capitalism lets winners collect their rewards and those who failed get to learn from their failures.. and try again. Wall Street has a concept called TOO BIG TO FAIL - it is aimed at shielding people from the consequences of their failed decisions. Privatize profits but socialize failure. WITW?!!! If you're a huge corp with tons of people on your payroll, you get put on life support. Your failure is rewarded. Corporate welfare and bailouts = worst form of entitlement mentality.

What happens to all that money printed up to pay for the bailouts? It bubbles up until it blows up when Italy's financial woes blow up. Dow Jones @ 5000 is not as loony as it may seem.

There IS a limit to the BAILOUT mentality. By trying to AVOID PAID, the government just made the BLOW UP of the BUBBLE all that more lethal.

there is no such thing a free market, never has, never will be. maybe in some shithole third world slum or bazaar.

The sad truth is that all this is just the early wave of the huge social disruptions that will happen before the global economy hits the bottom of the tank. All the extra air in the bubble must be let out before real growth resumes.

By the looks of it, the world will only get out of it after several more years and there will be a new economic titan holding court - CHINA. Unless its own housing fraud bubble doesn't fully erupt the social volcano the communists are desperately suppressing now.

Nope... A front man forms a PAC... Another, or the same form a C4. Companies donate anonymously to the C4 and the C4 donates it to the PAC.. Thus you never know what companies are actually donating to who/what.

socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor

we get it

Sounds about right, except the housing thing. If you kept paying your mortage, they would not of taken it. Quit using a paperwork error to gain something.
There are a few other grey areas on some things...

at the end of the statement, he left out ..."and they mercilessly stomp kittens' heads into the ground."

The protesters are mixing legitimate grievances with foolish rhetoric ...

They need focus on just a few relevant topics and avoid the "manifesto" rant ...

Oh yeah like castrated Keith Oberman is going to "get those bankers". LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! He would lose his job in a split second if he actually decided to tell the truth.

This :thumbsup

I'd be supportive of the protest if they would add to their list of demands broadening the production of foie gras from geese again. this hudson valley duck foie gras aint cutting it and fresh goose lobes are almost impossible to find now.
