  • UNION OBAMA WARMONGERS join Independent people in occupy?

    Watch out Occupy your being set.

  • The Great Recession. First, bankers ran wild with deregulation: junk bonds, reckless lending, and bad mortgages. Taxpayers bailed them out with too few strings attached. Bankers then turned on those who bailed them out, supporting politicians who would keep their taxes low and dismantle new protections Obama signed into law to prevent the abusive practices that caused the recession in the first place. Now, America is rising up against these criminals. This is no "tea party" for the rich.

  • don't worry dumfucks, those unions will take all that money y our government borrows and stick it in their pockets.

  • Shit just got real people!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I do not think it was just stinky dirty hippies RT shame on you for suggesting that.

  • these protesters are not only against big oil but they are also against big deodorant and big toothpaste. They look and smell like shit

  • Well dont worry there is nothing to see here this will go no-where fast if it gets just a little bigger WHY because well just read some of the comments here to start but...The rich KNOW how to go tribal and they are starting already there are alot of collages that are having problems with racisim ATM lots of signs and such all put out there to break young people apart make them easy to handle.

THIS IS OF EXTREME IMPORTANCE!!!! THIS IS NOT JUST SOME STUPID NORMAL COMMENT!!! THIS IS SERIOUS SHIT MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!

  • We have to thank RT and Youtube!!!

    I always complained about adds, and views that aren't updated bla bla, but they do give us the chance to watch this, big probs to the both of them,,,

  • Obomber is a joke much like America has been the last 10 years....

  • Fake leaders are being put in place to draw up b.s. demands and muddy the waters. The message should be END THE FED (give the power to coin money back to the people) and JAIL THE CRIMINAL BANKING FAMILIES THAT OWN THE MONEY SUPPLY! Start with the Rothchilds and Rockefellers. Seize everything they own!!

  • @guysmyly WORD!

    

  • this new reporter is hot

  • Off with ther heads.

  • Okay, way off topic. But this girl is really really cute.

  • The demonstrations in the 70s failed to get action. It wasn't until people got political power that they could create change. We need a Progressive in the White House who puts the people first before corporate profits. Support the new way to elect Presidents, go to Americans Elect and support Mike Ballantine, 2102, the people's President.

  • Why are we asking for something that is and always was ours???This is our home, this planet our HOME!!! These politicians and bankers are not the owners of anything, only from these freaking institutions that instead of helping is fucking our life's, close this fuckin shit!!!!

  • if we don't change the system nothing is going to change! if we are asking for understanding from politicians and bankers forget about it, these institutions need to CLOSE!! and we have to treat ourselves like sisters and brothers and use technology for the better of humanity or we will never reach shit!

  • That awkward moment when you realize Facebook has made more changes than Obama.

  • GET MONEY OUT of politics. Sign petition at GETMONEYOUT(dot)com

  • It's the UNIONS that 'perfecting the modern slavery'. The only way to keep you accepting the conception of modern slavery is for you to accept the UNIONS; for you to accept the UNIONS, they need to 'temporary' join you -- "Ya, we're at your side! ^^" -- If you can accept the UNIONS, you can accept the modern slavery -- So that they still have chance to restore the hierarchical slavery model after the mess. (-.-)

  • @tkooi71 - Unions become a problem when they become corrupt. When they are run without corruption, they work in the interest of the workers. Without unions we will be doomed to repeat history. Read up on the Triangle Shirtwaist Company Fire and Crystal Lee Sutton.

  • 0:59 he looks like the guy in Epic Meal Time.

  • vimeo dot com slash 29906321.... :-)

  • If wall street took everyones money why not occupy their mansions and fancy boats! :-)

  • so called "sole superpower America" is only skin deep ha....

  • Occupy Wall street wont make a change like the Arab spring cause these protestors are not armed and supported by the CIA lol

  • unions have traditionally opposed campaign finance reform (thereby helping the Kochs and JP Morgan achieve their goals) and guess where they put their pension funds? in Wall Street firms, I would take their support with a grain of salt

  • THUMBS UP TO GIVE THE RT BABES A BREAK

    THEY LOOK SICK AND TIRED OF THIS IDIOTIC ''OCCUPY'' THING.

  • @MrViTopol YOUR IDIOTIC STFU RETARD

  • @MrViTopol Lol no thumbs

  • More people on Wall Street causes......more arrests causes.....more JP Morgan grants to NYPD causes.....more taxes and less jobs for the common man causes......even more people on Wall Street.

  • One of the biggest challenges for Occupy Together is to keep it from ever being co-opted by any element of the establishment to any degree. This, of course, includes any politicians, political parties or unions because they all, in one way or another, still don't think outside of the provably destructive, murderous and unsustainable monetary-market paradigm. The Resource-Based Economy, on the other hand, allows actual freedom because there are no monetary "costs" restricting your life.

  • @SustainableEquality Resources are money. Money is by definition the commonly accepted medium of exchange, which is in turn exchanged for other things.

    So even if everyone ditched dollars and most commonly traded with 1 gallon buckets of water, it would become "money". Merit badges.. money, electronic credit.. still money (although more currency). There will always be monetary costs restricting your life, even if you allow someone else to provide for you and you don't see the costs.

  • "Too big to fail is too big to allow". Brilliant

  • Steve Jobs is dead!?!?!?! D:

  • It's American AUTUMN, not Fall or Spring. Get you seasons straight

  • Want change? Occupy the Federal Reserve. Down with the central banking system Thomas Jefferson warned us about. The central bank ran by foreigners, is the greatest enemy to this country; removing the money changers is the first order of business, and once they are gone never let them back in.

  • Unions have been responsible for a great many benefits to its membership, some of which have had a very positive impact on the balance of society as well. Unfortunately it is usually at the expense of others with in a given trade that don't (kick back) pay into their system. In a morally bankrupt environment they become the ultimate in systemic corruption. "The end justifies the means" is the mantra of the union. This is the creed of the selfish which poses a odd dilemma considering it's goals.

  • The Unions showed up, everyone can now ignore the occupation.

  • Unions helped build this country, and now they are tearing it down with the help of the lemmings they spoon feed their leftist kool aid to.... unions are out of control, time for an ass kicking. They no longer get my dues, time to take a side America.

  • Unions are just trying to hi-jack this movement and label it the Obama's left wing answer to the Tea party. Majority of this movement is anti-obama, anti-govenment, anti-fed reserve. Dont believe the hype that unions are there for the betterment & to give this anti-government movement a legit face so msm can now take them serious...This aint left or right its about people tired of getting shitted on by our corrupt government~!!!

  • imagine working on your farm and hearing a huge bang and look in the distance and see your home with your children and wife in it in a small mushroom cloud and destroyed. what would you say? what would you do? stop denying the brutal agenda of the wall st elite. it needs to stop. just stop the wars for fuck sake stop, that's all just stop. fucking stop, stop, stop.....

  • Soros / Government sponsered unions?

    No thanks bro, leave this to free people WITHOUT government funded sponsers.

  • So are unions going to try and hijack the occupy wall street movement. Most union leaders are corrupt IMO.

  • It seems we want more of the same. What a shame...

  • In Portugal, the police joined the protesters.

    NYPD should realize they are part of the 99% as well.

  • @heckpoktan J P Morgan just gave $4.6million to the NYPD (confirmed on JPMorgans own website) ... that buys a lot of arrests. Police officers should certainly realise they are part of the 99%, but propaganda in the US is very strong. There are 1.5 million homeless children in the US, 1% of the population will go homeless every year... propaganda dehumanises these people so they're seen as stupid, dirty or criminal... is your classic divide and conquer. I hope the police join the ppl soon.

  • @heckpoktan Well, NYPD just got paid 4.6 million to brutally arrest protesters. Funny how that's exactly what Occupy Wall St. is about: keeping money out of politics, yet NYPD is paid by JP Morgan to violate protesters. What a sham!

  • unions in england take money and DO NO HELP, thanks unison

  • @AntonyThorburn Get rid of unions, get rid of a 5 day working week, put children back in mines, get rid of minimum wage, get rid of any workers rights, get treated like shit. Unions are having their power taken, helped by opinions like yours, that's why they can't do as much as they used to.

  • @annoloki did you read my comment? THEY DID NOT HELP ME!!! they are as bad as the fuckin goverment, take take take, nothing in return. REFORM THE UNIONS ALONG WITH THE GOVERMENT

  • @AntonyThorburn "They"??? You do know what the word "union" means, right? There is no "they", if you're part of a union, it's "we". Unions and government absolutely do need reform, unions need to be given their teeth back, and people need to feel once again like they ARE their union, and not like their union is just some thing they can send a tenner to however often and expect it to do all the work.

  • @annoloki are you a union REP?

  • @AntonyThorburn I'm not a union rep nope, I'm self employed so I have a very different relationship with those I work for than someone who had a single employer. Even if I was though, that wouldn't invalidate my point because my point is not about me.

  • Time to Hit the Streets NOW!!

  • UNIONS GAVE US SUNDAY (as a holiday) !

  • unions built this country? horseshit. INDIVIDUALS built this country. All the unions are doing is trying to turn this into a left/right paradigm. Its US, ALL OF US against the bankers... dont spill this shit rt

  • @tirmen8er When individuals join together they become more powerful because they can use "collective bargaining"... what's it called when people do this? A union. You've had the word poisoned by propaganda churned out by corporate media, as large corporations have always been rigidly opposed to the idea of people getting together and organising. You can fire an individual. You can treat an individual like shit. Try doing that if they all stick together.

  • Jail to the bankers.

  • 911 TRUTH NOW

    911 TRUTH NOW

    911 TRUTH NOW

  • if the yank unions are like the brit unions you have just handed it over to the government

  • @taggart64 Our unions are controled by the Mafia. They are somewhat more trustworthy than the U.S. Government.

  • CIA joining CIA, cute...

  • unions??? something smells bad here

  • @1republic4all What do you have against Unions ? Unions built this Country.

  • @Will224000, absolutely true. We can thank unions for not working 7 days a week, vacation, overtime pay, and workplace safety just to name a few things.

  • @trader1963 This is positive ad-hominem. I could say the US has built thousands of wonderful inventions and brought countless innovations. Pro US therefore is always good and right?

    It doesn't mean all their current decisions are good, just and fair. It would be nice though, whenever a group/"type" of people does X amount of incredibly good deeds they are trustworthy forever.

    Just doesn't work that way though.

  • @Will224000 yhou have no country, you have BS , thats why we are there at wall street get a clue DICK HEAD, this time we are not in the mod for your BS

  • @Will224000 no the people did, then the unions jacked up the price of labour so much all your workforce is now chinese.

    Unions should never be involved in any kind of business venture in their current form. and if you guys havnt figured it out yet, the union 'heavies' are actually the biggest capitalists out there. They are actually ultimately responsible for unemployment, like now. They push wages and business so much, that the economy ends up in tatters, then everybodys unemployed.

  • @Will224000 Labor Day, 40 hour work week, decent wages (used to be) were all union contributions. Also right to strike without the ARMY busting your head, etc. So, yeah you are right. There are a lot of idiots in this country. U.S. has very high functional illiteracy rate among high school grads. About 70 percent of the population have only a high school education which is a dumbed down experience.

  • @Will224000 exactly, and look how it turned out

  • @Hemnir ...WE built the Country... the Banksters crashed it...

  • @Will224000 Unions should not be permitted for government workers. Holding the taxpayer hostage and demanding more money from the people IS NOT RIGHT. Why do you think government wages are so out of control? Look at us up in Canada...A Canada Post employee makes $23 an hour to be an adult paperboy.

  • @RyanB0011 ...Everyone should be allowed to earn a Living Wage... it costs me $2.56 to mail a package in the US... the same package by UPS is $19.43... the Fat Cats want everyone to make $8.25... except themselves... they have to have Bigger Bonu$e$

  • @Will224000 unions are for losers...

  • @corksterism non Union are Scabs...

  • @Will224000 well, than 90% of American workers are scabs, retard,...and we outwork union suckholes any day of the week.....dick....

  • Comment removed

  • well this is a perfect way for the right to completely discredit a true grassroots movement. "oh it's the liberals, funded and backed by the unions and progressive PACs".

  • Does Mike Elk own a comb?

  • @paddyman22 why does he need a comb? if he have a brain

  • we need to be protesting outside walmart not wallstreet!!

  • @fnnie ooh and P. jobs wont be created if someone doesnt create something

  • @fnnie ...do you know that there is over 20% of Americans out of work because of these greedy people on Wall Street ?... I realize that you are young but do you know that is ahead in life for you and your generation ?... you will be a slave for the Bank for the rest of your life... our economy has gone over the cliff ... this is not good... (don't get pregnant either)... we are fighting for your future...

  • Straight to the point. One thing everyone seems to be missing though is that the lobbyists are a huge part of the problem. If we want to get rid of corporate influence in our politics then we need to get rid of their stupid lobbyists. We need to elect officials that are NOT republicrats..

  • Does Mike Elk own another shirt?

  • Thank you RT for covering this and asking the questions we all have

  • @MitochondriaDNA isn't it sad that the only reliable cable news media is a foreign one?

  • @MitochondriaDNA Yes thanks RT for pushing more people to trust in the government. Politicians truly are less corrupt than CEO's, lol

  • Obama's support? Pah! Impeach Obama!

  • I agree with Cenk Ugyur's suggestion about the the Constitutional Amendment about corporations and bankers getting involved in Government affairs.

  • It's so great that the unions are part of the demonstrators.

  • This is good to see , now moms n pops might join in force to effect real change ...good luck and gods speed to all.

  • “Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms (of government) those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny” Thomas Jefferson

  • these 2 should date.....BOREING!!!!!!
