Work hard and get a better job. Invest some of your money for retirement you fucking shit bags.

Why is everyone in the USA starting to cry for a handout? Stop tucking your balls behind your legs fags.

If you cant beat the system maybe life just isn't your game.

p.s. uni/collage kids always fucking cry about everything. Real life sucks, we get it.

"NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Occupy Wall Street is on the move ... uptown.

Why uptown? Because that's where the rich folks live!

Organizers are planning a march on Tuesday that will visit the homes of JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, billionaire David Koch, hedge fund honcho John Paulson, Howard Milstein, and News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch."


Part of me wants them to just hang out a window and rain hundred dollar bills on these hippies and see the protestors grovel and fight for the cash while the billionaire laughs maniacally

Wannabe 60s hippies. Honestly who in their right mind honestly wants the US to adopt a socialist economy and abandon capitalism? Fucking crazy.

I wish the people who disagreed with these protesters could organize a protest against this crap, but unfortunately those people have jobs and lives and can't afford to spend a month living on the street like an animal.

Also LOL at Ben and Jerry's - what a bunch of hyprocritical clowns. So these protesters are using their PCs and smart phones to organize rallies right? Who the fuck made those devices - OMG corporations! Liberals are such hypocrites.

So you want them to neither protest peacefully nor revolt as a means to change something they don't want? Let me guess you want them to vote? Run for office?

All we are saying is that the only time peaceful protest has worked is never. Armed revolutions don't have to be deadly, just look at portugal.

ha, i can't tell if you are trolling 10,000 years of history or just openly mocking the greatest system the earth has ever put together for equality and justice.

....

if these protestors ever started an armed revolution: i'm sure all of society would agree that the shittiest turds in our country have all congregated in one spot and we'd have the perfect opportunity to rid us all of them once and for all. so by all means. please start these 'violent protests' you want.

it would be fucking open season on these hipster pinko commie faggots. so yes, krallum, please openly endorse these [quote armed revolutions[/quote] you want so badly

i love to hear you conservatives throw this word around like a fucking frisbee

i dont think i have heard anyone saying they want a socialist economy and abandon capitalism. as was posted early. how fair is it that people are working people 2 x 3 harder for less pay while CEOs and their companies are storing away millions, billions and trillions of dollars instead of "creating jobs" since they are the "job creators".

now we have reports that 50% of the nations CEOs are not expected to hire for another 12 months while a huge portion of the other 50% are expecting to announce more layoffs.

take for instance that when Clinton raised taxes, our GPD grew faster than when it did under the Reagan tax cuts. ["Receipts during the Reagan years increased by $310 billion and by $870.8 billion under Mr. Clinton"] Its also proven that unemployment actually shrinks at a faster rate when taxes are higher than lower.

none of these people want a socialist economy .... they /we are tired of 1% controlling the wealth. job creators need to grow a fucking pair

You are basically claiming the GPD grew only because Clinton raised taxes? Nice argument. There were no other things going on (like the digital revolution) that may have spurred that growth.

As for CEO compensation, I agree that it is out of hand. But to claim that companies are hoarding cash because they are greedy is stupid. Companies are hoarding cash because they do not know what the hell the future holds because our govenment is offering up no plans, makes no effort to curb our spending, and continues to regulate business with an iron fist. My company continues to push off capital spending because they are so wary of what is coming next from this administration. Just like with Boeing trying to build a plant in Charleston only to be stifled by the NLRB.

As for the socialist comment, well I read the signs that these people are holding up and they are all pretty much "fuck capitalism" so what else I am supposed to believe.

yep. Dont confuse them with facts/logic. This is no different than people saving cash and not making purchases bc they are unsure if they will lose their job, so they build up a warchest and delay making purchases until they feel more stable.

I dropped by last night to see what was going on, as the news coverage has painted so many different pictures of what it's really like down at the park.

Here's what I saw in my hour there:
- Assembly meeting with the people's mic being used (plus a projection screen to take official notes and confirm movements - that's new according to my friend that was there with me and had been before)
- multiple children with their parents - anywhere from babies to early teens
- people who fit the age group of "retired person"
- indian drum circle with traditional dances
- regular 'ol drum circle with random people dancing
- the 'People's Library' (apparently they have some sort of scanning in/out system so you can check out/in books
- 5 food carts that were set up around the outside of the park, all seemed to be doing a brisk business (around 7-8 pm, about 3-5 people in each line)
- many people passing ipad's around / taking photos on their iphones / using laptops (a few seemed to be on Twitter when I could see their screen as I walked by)
- multiple screenprinting stations - apparently if you bring a t-shirt they'll screenprint it for free with "we are the 99% #occupywallstreet" (also learned through my friend who's been there before)

Just in case you guys like, want to know what's going on at the actual park or anything.

Quote :
"The criminals are crashing the party.

Lured by cheap drugs and free food, creepy thugs have infiltrated the crowd of protesters camped out in Zuccotti Park for Occupy Wall Street, The Post has learned.

“I got warrants. I’m running from the law,” boasted Dave, 24, a scrawny, unshaven miscreant in filthy clothes from Stamford, Conn. “I’m not even supposed to be here, but it’s as good a spot as any to hide.”

Wanted for burglary, the drug-addled fugitive said some of his hard-partying pals clued him in that the protest was a good place to be fed, get wasted and crash.

“I’ve been smoking and drinking in here for eight days now,” said Dave, booze on his breath and his eyes bloodshot as he lay sprawled on a tattered sheet of cardboard. “I need to get some methadone. Every day, I wake up, and I’m f--ked up.”

Drugs can be easy to score -- a Post reporter was offered pot for $15 and heroin for $10.

They’ve already fueled at least one violent incident, when a wasted nut job socked a medical volunteer in the face before others hauled the attacker away.

“We are trying to keep everything calm and work with the police, but there are some crazies in here,” said Paul, a security volunteer.

“The other day, there was a guy charging people $5 to use the McDonald’s bathroom. He was on LSD or high on something.”

But the creeps can’t give a bad name to the group’s overall anti-greed message, protesters said.

A coalition of religious leaders and their followers yesterday marched from Washington Square Park to the encampment with a makeshift golden calf in the shape of the Wall Street bull, leading protesters in such spirituals as “We Shall Overcome” and “Down by the Riverside.”

The crowd chanted, “We are the 99 percent!” -- referring to the millions of Americans not among the top 1 percent of the country’s earners -- along with priests, rabbis and imams.

“You are fulfilling the words of the prophet Isaiah. You have thrown off the yoke. Occupy, occupy, occupy!” shouted Warren Goldstein, chair of the history department at the University of Hartford in Connecticut.

The golden calf sat atop a brown platform that marchers carried on their shoulders. On the platform were the words “false idol.”

The clerics -- some holding signs that read, “Jesus is with the 99%” -- said they were there to support the movement.

“You have woken up all of us ... We will stand with you in every city, every state and every country across this globe,” said Michael Ellick, minister at Judson Memorial Church near Washington Square.

Hundreds gathered around philosopher Slavoj Zizek as he gave a speech and answered questions.

“They tell us we are dreamers. The true dreamers are those who think things can go on indefinitely the way they are,” he said. “We are not destroying anything. We are only witnessing how the system is destroying itself.”

Some protesters have said that in addition to being against Wall Street greed, they also are for a withdrawal from Afghanistan and Iraq and more help for Haiti.

But as the protest ground on for a 23rd day, it was evident that there were challenges.

Zuccotti Park smelled like an open sewer -- with people urinating and defecating in public.

And some couples have taken advantage of the free condoms distributed by organizers to do the nasty in full view of other protesters.

“It kinda makes me think of what Woodstock must have been like,” said one protester, Sarah, 19 from the Upper West Side.

“I haven’t hooked up with any guys ... but one of my friends did have sex in a tarp with a guy last night.”

The free chow offered to protesters was boosting the crowd.

“People say they are here for the cause, but the real reason is the free food,” quipped Cameron, 26, of Jersey City.

“On my third day, they had smoked salmon with cream cheese. You know how much smoked salmon is a pound? Sixteen dollars. I eat better here than I do with my parents!”

Many of the protesters said they are here for the long haul -- and predicted trouble if cops try to clear the park.

“When the weather starts getting cold, we’re already talking about bringing tents in here,” said Robert, 47, of Pennsylvania. “I’m not going anywhere.

“I lost my job of 22 years, and someone has gotta pay,’’ he said. “Civil disobedience is something we may need to keep this site occupied. If everyone does it at once, the cops won’t be able to do anything.”

Three protesters took their sleeping bags and tried to camp out on Wall Street near Nassau Street last night. When police told them to move, one demonstrator, Zachary Miller, 20, from California, was arrested for disorderly conduct, cops said.

At one point yesterday, a speaker from Washington, DC, told protesters how to break out of zip ties and handcuffs in case they get collared.

The protest vet, Ryan Clayton, 30, demonstrated how use a bobby pin to spring the cuffs open -- while claiming he was “not encouraging people to break out of restraints.”"

This is becoming a flat out "Protest against the shitty economy/America" nationwide event.

Too bad these idiots won't protest the White House and just want socialism; to take the money from the rich and redistribute their wealth.

http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2011/10/10/protesters-to-flood-loop-to-take-back-chicago/

Quote :
"CHICAGO (CBS) — Thousands of protesters flooded downtown Chicago at five different locations Monday to participate in simultaneous marches to “Take Back Chicago.”

At least one arrest was reported and several participants were ticketed, police said, but overall the demonstrations were orderly.

As CBS 2’s Kris Habermehl reports, the Take Back Chicago protest was organized by the Chicago Teachers Union, labor groups and other organizations.

They marched with demonstrators involved with the Occupy Chicago movement, which has been camped out in the financial district along LaSalle Street for more than two weeks to protest what they call corporate greed."

the protestors are right. the longer they protest and avoid working worthless 'jobs' the quicker they'll magically get rich and find jobs and produce goods and services for their fair share of humanity.

too bad we don't live in a country where we are free to do such things.
