Occupy Wall Street: Not on major media but worth watching!

As do I when you call someone divisive...lol

Rooting out fraud, wherever it is, was what I referring to...I don't recall mentioning anything about temporary assistance...Although I might ask you to define 'temporary'.


You know what I was referring to, you must feel like dancing.

Lol, you're one to talk. Aren't you one of the guys equating folks on temporary assistance as a way of life? Sorry, have to laugh.

Here's a hint - if I'm selfish or otherwise anti-social over given opportunity, I don't advertise.

Here's another one - if I'm not advertising, I'm not trying to make a pig's ear look like something it ain't.

I'd like to see a more positive level of discourse with our elected officials and our media pundits. If you think I'll take the high road here when the stereotypes fly... uh, you know me better than that

LOL. Define intolerance.

Sometimes I know and sometimes I don't. You tend to get a lil' blurry sometimes, meaning or your bottom line is disguised and or delayed.

I'm not easily boxed as I have no true allegiance.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

about as right as it gets, eh?

Nice try

[DiscoBiscuit]

left?

Based on your response, I'd guess you're just this side of anarchy. But then anarchy is typically associated with 'leftists' so you've almost done a 360.

Alright, Rush called the protesters human debris. Anybody seen his commute to work? He gets in a giant SUV and caravans with a half dozen others, (not people, SUVs) a half mile down the road to the studio. Same thing at quitting time, the Rush Pacific Railroad heads home... to his cat.

far more often than im wrong..


or were you just playing more RvD?

 

[SpasticGramps]

... to his cat.

And his pills.

The first word that comes to mind when I think of him is "poisonous."

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Just a free spirit I guess.

Why is asking how one aligns divisive? How is asking a weed forum where the income cap lies any less divisive? Sounds to me like somebody doesn't want to reveal their private matters yet they stereotype positions they disagree (and nothing more.)

Wait, you don't have to say it.... if one doesn't stereotype 100%, they don't do it at all. Unless they don't align with your stars.

Occupy Wall Street protests grow in size and credibility (photos, video, live updates) Washington Post

Representatives from some of the most powerful labor unions in the country have arrived to march alongside the protesters, and students from New York universities joined the demonstrations this afternoon.

The protests today — which were expected to be the largest yet — began at 3 p.m. Eastern, when protesters in Zuccotti Square marched a mile north to Foley Square, met community and labor leaders, and then marched back at 4:30 p.m. The march was largely peaceful, and metal barriers and police kept the demonstrations from blocking traffic.

Many protesters carried signs or joined in chants about economic injustice, including: “Wall St. can't you see we want a fair economy!”

The reinforcements have added both size and credibility to the movement, which began Sept. 17 with a few dozen camped-out college students, and has voiced opposition against everything from corporate greed and bank foreclosures to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and unemployment. A full list of the protesters demands can be found here.

Among the labor unions that marched today are representatives of the Chinatown Tenants Union, the Transit Workers Union, MoveOn.org, Working Families Party, United NY. See a full list here.

The first union to throw support behind the protesters was Transport Workers Union Local 100. Alexander Hotz and Alice Brennan from The New York World asked members of the TWU what inspired them to join:

Students from Columbia, The New School, and NYU also walked out of their classes and marched to City Hall, before joining community and labor leaders in the protests.

I'm stoked about the universities getting involved. If the message can spread nation wide through the university system then this is the real deal IMO.

Look at Greece, the Middle East, Spain, Italy, the UK, some in China.....now America.

Times are changing.

Maybe students will teach the country something new.

How is asking a weed forum where the income cap lies any less divisive?

how is asking (if one believes income should be capped) where the cap should be divisive?

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Are you plugged in?

 

[dagnabit]

are you turned on?

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

I think you're more than done.

This guy sums up what the Occupy Wall Streets root issue is IMO. He sums up what the movements core issue is about. This is what the people are protesting about. The power of money is why the system is perverted. The power needs to return to its rightful owner.
