when faced with facts, these idiots crumble. he may have more money but he also pays more tax. over 50% of the tax in America is paid by the top 1% how is that not their fair share? oh because your not them. fail.
@MrCandew- Ha! Your gonna take his job as Chief executive officer? The reason he makes so much money is because he worked his ASS OFF to get where he is. He has a degree, which took sacrifice, AT LEAST 4 years of his life, he paid money to go to school, and made nothing while he was in school... You make 9 dollars an hour because you dropped out of high school, or didn't go to college. Hell, even alot of people who go to college don't make much more than that, but thats life, get over it!

That's what I"m talking about someone said 1% and they thought that they controlled the wealth, no, they pay the most taxes. People need to starting thinking straight because eventually those who used to get a tax refund, will know owe the gov't more.
This is not a problem of Peter Shafer, he is one of the wealthy man who is not corrupt. This is a NWO Buildeberg, Neo Con, Fed Bank, IRS, problem. The true criminals are: Rotchschild, Rockefeller, Bush, Cheney, Clinton, Bernanke, Brzezinski, Wolfovits, Greensapn, Kissinger, Kristol, Rumsfeld, Obama and the list goes on for the true 13 bloodline mob that now committed so much crime they are hiding behind other wealthy people hoping to set more smokescreens. Do your research, Think for yourselves.
This guy is absolutely right! At what point does it become not worth the hassle, and work for free? He could fire all of his employees, and live comfortably the rest of his life, abd then what? What about the 150 jobs that were lost... And whose fault is it? His? Cause he doesnt want to work for free? Wake up America!
@hawtdog79 Ha! I wish he would, but he wouldn't your telling me if you were still makeing money even thoe you pay 70% of tax or more but you are still make millions you would pack up and leave? Good get the fuck out of here you greedy fuck I will take your fucking job. It is not right that 1% own 40% of the wealth oh they pay 40% of the national federal tax? HA I make 9 fucking bucks an hour what is this guy making. I wish someone with a brain would of stood up to this fucker.
he may be paying 50% the ceo guy but given what he takes home. hes making enough to make up for what that entire crowd around him makes in several years time. for instance. if u work in a company like fedex you might be making $12 per hour but for one year you take home about 21K if u work part time. that ceo takes home millions even after the taxes. these ppl are nto mad so much that they pay taexes but that the social disparity is so high and only CEO get bonuses
"Just like Warren Buffet and his secretary" - the Obama administration's biggest lie, only his capital gains tax rate is less. "25%" - Actually he pays 35% at least, probably more. "You should help the next guy" - Lady who the hell do who you employ, and do you pay 50% of your income back to the people?
maybe they shouldve made points like the fact the monetary system has been rigged to keep people in debt since its inception in 1913 on Jekyll Island You have a new central bank issuing your money now there is no money in circulation yet you take out a 100 dollar loan now you owe 51.67 in interest now in order to get that money you have to take out another loan for the interest and now pay interest on that the fact is you're in debt for life for that inital loan unless your moneys interest free
@xDenaliH1x like the people connected to the families running this scam called the federal reserve Lincoln was killed for giving Americans debt free tender does that not tell you something JFK was going to amongst many other great things reissue congress the right to control American currency again murdered notice a pattern? if you dont do some research its the only thing left to smart people up
All these people don't realize a simple concept: You need dumb people in a populace more and you need smart people. They are almost complements of one another. If everybody was equally "smart" there would be no economy and nothing else following that. People would probably still be hunting for food. But you need a "smart" few to lead the "dumb" majority. It is a bit sad and harsh, but with hope, belief, hard-work and a bit of luck you can join the "smart" crew :)
@nkelly1432 You are missing the point. I am saying society in general has to draw certain lines. Everyone wants to be rich, but if everyone is "rich" they are at the same time mediocre because they have the same purchasing power. All these people want more money which is a honest need. It's just they have to understand that not everyone there is meant to make 100k a year (by current inflation rate). Unless you want the same wage for everybody then this protest has no concrete mesage
Say what you want about Schiff, I happen to like him. And the man does pay enormous amounts of taxation every year. You can't hate a man who made himself, and now contributes so much to society. He's probably paid more taxes in one year, than most of us will in our lives.
@StonewallJackson26 What is he producing of value? What do his 150 employees produce? Surely they don't contribute to society as much as the child laborers in Vietnam who actually produce tangible goods?
@nkelly1432 They pay TAXES! The private sector is what sustains the infrastructure. They pay for firemen, police, roads, state worker salaries, medicaid, welfare, social security. Without the private sector to tax, the government doesn't have anything. Who do you think pays for social programs? Not the government. Tax paying citizens do. He employs tax paying citizens, and he pays more taxes in one year than you've paid in your lifetime.
The Buffet argument is noble, but it has one deadly flaw: while yes, the capital gains tax is only 15%, far lower than the upper income tax bracket, capital gains (shares, basically) are already affected by the corporate tax cut. Therefore, that 15% capital gains tax is being charged on top of a much higher corporate tax.
@MrRedtubelover Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
This dudes absolutely right. Its not about more taxes. Its about getting off of the wellfare state and not expecting citizens to pay taxes in order to prop up banks that seek to enslave us. This man earned his living. Success is nothing to demonize. Corruption, mainly that in the financial sector, is why we're here in the first place.
I hope that I will be part of the 1% club but until that day DON'T COUNT ME PART OF THE WHINEY_WHINE PERCENT I am so tired of this 99% shit. I want my share even though I didn't work for it. FUCKING CRY BABIES!!! I support the 1% that put in work to be a successful person. That lady said well share your success.LOL @ her dumbass. I bet she went home and made him to be the bad guy. I remember people use to respect successful people. Now its why is he doing better then me mentality? boo hoo hoo
this guy is a complete asshole. He's rich because of a blatant ponzi scheme. All wall street bankers are in it for the corrupted money. How bout we say fuck him and all the bankers, as they do completely nothing? Get rid of the federal reserve and central banks now, they are fraud. We need a small government, the more control they have the more fucked we are as 99%. This lady went crazy but it's hard not to go crazy when finally get your chance to fire back at one of these SOB's.
I'm heavily leaning towards the Occupy Movements message. But yeah, these people are annoying and won't let Schiff speak his mind. They aren't having an intelligent, rational, level headed discussion, they're being douches and yelling. not all OWS people are like this. Tea Party has the same time of people. Republicans, Democrats, Moderates, Radicals, Conservatives, Liberals, we all have these type of people sharing our ideology. We just need the smart ones to get together and discuss reasonably
you miss the moral of bien the 1%... when she was asked to be part of the 1% its like sellin out whats your price.. in the end its onli green paper=/ so dnt get it twisted
I love how the media focuses on the areas with the annoying people who do not have a clue what they are talking about, while the people who actually have legitimate comments are ignored because they would actually have given the movement a positive image. The people who made this video obviously tried to find the annoying, non-nonsensical part of the occupy crowd and focus on them. This film was created with a bias, i do not see why anyone considers this legitimate.
What a cunt, fucking make something of yourself instead of begging people who have worked hard to get where they are. This was the most obnoxious thing to occupy wall street. They employ so many people it's a joke, the 99% is employed by t
I'm not part of even the top 10 percent but seriously, if people are gonna bitch and complain, have a decent fucking argument cause you make the rest of us look like you..idiots. They should NOT have to give up their money because most of them earned it through working harder and smarter than us. As a reward for that, they get the riches they deserve and so do their sons and daughters. Honestly people, if we take money from them, were stealing. period
Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot(OWS), others as a cow to be milked (Dems), but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon. - Winston Churchill
occupy wall st protesters are stupid. They do not realize that if CEO's lose their business then employees would be fired. no income means no money, no money means starvation and poverty for America.
If you complain about how much these CEO's are making, then make your own business and become a CEO, that way you can employ other people and probably make them a CEO too.
in the second part of the vid shiff distorts the truth some what he says that the economy begins with jobs.yes it does you could argue that but he doesnt say who creates those jobs.IT IS NOT THE PRIVATE SECTOR WHO CREATES THEM FIRST,THEY ONLY CREATE THEM WHEN PEOPLE HAVE MONEY TO SPEND. WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?IT COMES FROM TAXES ON THE RICH,THE STATE IVESTS IT IN PUBLIC SECTOR,IT CREATES DEMAND AND THE RICH IVEST IN ORDER TO EXTRACT THE MONEY AND THE SIRCLE GOES ON FROM THERE!BASIC LOGIC
The problem with low income Americans is that they aren't very resourceful and educated. They look for jobs in fantasy land, can't find it, then complain about the 1% and Obama. Instead of getting their shit together, they complain that the rich aren't paying their fair share, even though the 1% pays for half of all taxes in America.
If you want success then you have to work your ass off for it. You don't give up and become an office drone.
@StateCCM Are you sure about that, ok so why arent they educated, and why are they not resorceful? Ha-Joon Chang seems to suggest the opposite, when he talks about India, maybe thats a differnet situation. I know these questions are broad but I was just wondering because Im not sure yet.
high schools always pick on the smart kids because they're weird and the popular kids say they should be getting laid, not getting smarter. That's the number one problem. the fact that being smart is freaking taboo.
I know this from experience. I got picked on badly when I was a teenager, but now I'll be living in San Francisco because my whole computer geek phase really paid off.
Now I can tell them all on facebook to suck it since they're doing full time at wal-mart
If the OWS group wasn't comprised of slobbering morons who defecate on everything and riot, some of us might have actually given two shits about their plight. Again this video proves why the rich guy is rich, and why those moron peasants around him aren't.
its not about him making more money than us. its about the bank owners who bribe politicians to proceed with the banks personal agenda that is in the interest of the so called "elite" and not the American people.
thank fuck i dont live in this fucked up country, dumb cunts running their mouth, not letting this self made business man talk. I'd be happy to work for him for a fair wage. He makes, what he makes because of what he made for himself and now all these lazy assholes that dont want to put in the hard yards, want a piece of the pie.
Lol dude is talking about money as though it is actually something.
Its just law backed paper based on a mathematical equation that ordinary people have no control over.
But yes even a baboon understands he hands in more casino chips in taxes then then that unsuspecting family about to go homeless cause dad is going to have cancer next year.
His math is a lie though, if living expenses were factored into his bullshit he'd be paying 10% of what ordinary people do.
These 99% people are idiots. The 1% pays roughly 60% of all of the taxes in the U.S. And thats not including the middle class and upper middle class, which leaves the "99%" at roughly 15% (the % of taxes they pay) and even then statistics show that the 99% people historically evade taxes more than the 1%.
oh look, more people discussing minutia rather than key issues. everyone is trying to look so righteous, no one is listening to one another. they still think this is a "me against you" issue...
"If i offered you to put you in the 1% right now,would you turn it down?"
Me: "Sir,you couldn't buy me.The fact you'd say that with that smirk on your face to me,reinforces my beliefs, i refuse to sale my soul for personal earthly possessions in return allowing myself to be possessed by demonic spirits to carry out the agenda of reinforcing the image that the world is somehow suppose to be the way it is,i see through your lies sir." ~Long live life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
@volatilecolon Compliments will get you nowhere I still say the F bomb is in bad taste. I'm appalled at the frequency ot its use. Indicates a lack of a decent vocabulary. Would you say that in front of your Mother or your preacher......I think not.
@2grouchy1 You aren't my mother nor are you my preacher, so kindly suck my fucking cock you bible-thumping cunt rag. Also, fuck you and all you hold dear in this world; I hope you get ass-raped and die of internal bleeding. Fuck your kids, fuck your parents, fuck your wife. In conclusion fuck off.
With 150 employees this guy is small fish amongst the 1%. Bankers and multinational corporations with 1000s of employees are the problem as their power and influence allows them to literally buy the government. Just check the presidential candidates campaign budgets and where they came from.
Anyway, the point is not what percentage of tax the wealthiest people should pay but how much of the profits are being shared amongst employees. Cooperatives are the way forward.
Peter Schiff and Ron Paul were two people who predicted the economic downturn and they both have nothing to be ashamed of regarding their taxes or compensation. Schiff obviously pays a lot of taxes. I'm sure Ron Paul doesn't pay as much but that is partially due to his not taking all the pay and benefits he's allowed in Congress. LIBERTY OF ALL KINDS ROCKS!!!
@Frostiedkdk How about you be a little less more communist and a little more realistic, the guys on the street protesting are only 1% of the 99%, and is diminishing ever since it started.
@Evenwas616 What's 'less more'...? How are the protesters communist again? Maybe you should be a little "less more" persuasive... you are not making any sense -_-
@caribearkiss I apologize, In a way it's an oxymoron but I was intending to say that it was you being the guy that was already in a way slightly communist but then what you said made you sound more communist so i made a silly statement in a way.
now that is not a shure thing to happen since all small bussines creators get fucked by sell out politicians who wont let you grow by destroying all competition, in all the industries posible wich fucking sucks,and by dividing people like this telling them that they are part of the club when they are not and are being fucked too, keeping the people divided to ignore whats the real objective is a good tactic and as you can see it worked.
and they the lower class who cant pay for shit because of debt ,the big thing here is the huge gap between lower class midlle and the rich,
because this man here could be a lot more succesfull if he as a person payed a little less and the corporations payed a lot more ( corporations are not people ), and the people who has not succeded could be in the road to have a succesfull bussines, a large one or a small one but succesfull.
well thing should be like this, that guy is not the one percent because hes rich that makes no sense he is not even in the 1% he is in the now midlle class, the people who earn billions a year are the ones who need to pay more taxes, of course being succesfull should not be bad and i understand, but both of the sides are wrong on the matter, he the guy ho works har and is succesfull pays more taxes than he should as a citizen,
Peter Shiff is right I live in Canada and we purposely don't do any more work because being in a 50% tax bracket means that if we make more we loose more...think about it...we stopped employing people and now only employ our selves for this very reason...higher taxes do cause business owners to get rid of their employees...
@lucy9359 You equate not wanting to work for more than a reasonable amount of time, for a reasonable rate of income as lazy. If I choose not to exceed a certain level of income because it either puts me in a higher tax bracket, or that I really don't need to be more wealthy than God, makes one lazy. Apperently, from the way you made your statement, you choose not to work yourself into a higher tax bracket and hence makes you lax. Not everyone is greedy, but most desire equality.
@AnacondaVanaspati I also live in Canada which means they have already come up with every way to screw us tax wise I already pay way to many taxes I said if they charge us more than 50% taxes I will purposely stop working that is what Peter Shiff said as well!
@lucy9359 You may complain about the higher taxation, but you at least recieve many benefits that we in the States do not. You have got a solid and reliable public health system, as well as a other social programs. Your schooling through college is funded so you don't depart carrying a heavy debt for the rest of your life. You do not have taxes hidden as penalties, fees and other ways that a tax is hidden as such in the States. Stop your whining about something you think you know.
@AnacondaVanaspati I definately wasn't whining and as far as who thinks they know something? Our health care system is the shams and people can't get the medical care they need...we pay out of butts to go through school and we come out so badly in debt it is a joke to say other wise, no free education here unless your an Native Indian...on top of high income taxes we pay high taxes on everything else...you don't even buy toilet paper here without 15% tax on top of it...
damn dont hate because people are successfull the problem is the 99% were not creative enough to get in to the 1% so stop bitching and come up with a great idea and maybe you will become successful and be in the 1%
The question is not what he is being taxed . It's what his corporation is being taxed . And what he is paying himself in dividends from the corporation . He had just been lucky that the people he's been up against haven't been able to make that point . He certaintly knows it ! The cocky prick
@mcmgcostello1008 S-Corp and LLC profits pass through to the owners' marginal tax rate, which makes his statements accurate. If his company is C-Corp, then it's probably taxed 34-38% on profits. He then pays an additional 15% tax on dividends. This is called double taxation.
If he is the sole shareholder, his effective tax rate is 40-45% assuming a dividend. Taxes on profits materially affect what company owners make off their investment. Conclusion: his statements are accurate and valid.
As much as the 1%-99% is disturbing, inequality is inevitable, because innovation in our society is driven by competition, and in competition there will always be inequality. It's just too bad some of the policies implemented to drive growth and innovation fell flat. This protesting gets America nowhere - they need to improve productivity instead of arguing who gets which piece of the pie.
It's not so much the 1% people should be protesting against (although there is a huge amount of unethicalness that happens at the big corporation level) - it's the government, the government's "unfair" choice of bailing out the certain entities within the 1%, and the way the government idiotically spends its tax dollars.
The real perpetrators are laughing because the two factions fighting against eachother didn't unite against them.
The OWS crowd wants everyone to finish the race together. This country was built on the idea of everyone starting on equal footing. We have moved closer in some respects (Civil Rights Act of 1964 comes to mind) and further in some others (giant welfare costs). Social justice is a farce.
Equality is everyone having the same opportunities - not the same rewards. That is blind justice. Capitalism is about equality of options, and mergers and government intervention/regulation is not capitalism.
one of the problems is that there is this misconception that just because somebody has more, you have less. The OWS movement is about people wanting what the 1% have while having to work less for it. I'm not in the 1%, but I understand that his wealth does not take away from my own worth. If there are any problems, they are with government regulation, not the 1%, who, as this guy said, pay more in taxes and do more for society than the average citizen.
i live in a low income household, but i believe in everything this man says. i know that i'm going to have to work my ass off to make money, and that's how ive spent my life. as a college student i dont spend 5/7 nights of the week partying to scrape by with a worthless degree that will get me nowhere. instead i work. i save. i dont buy the latest video game or 500 dollar jacket. so look inward before you start blaming those who do work and push themselves for money
This highlights the main problem of the Occupy Movement. These people are angry at a broken system and instead of focusing on fixing it, they want to punish those that have come out on top of that system.
Stop getting your "info" from drug addicts like Dick Morris and Rush Limbaugh. If you think FOX news is fair and balanced, then you most certainly are neither. An open mind is willing to see truths, and repetition of any mantra is indocrinationm not an education. You all have a computer, use it to investigate, and stop relying on deceptive talking heads for your scewed views.
@2grouchy1 Well grouchy, you apparently fail to maintain the intelligence to realize that my comments are an opinion based on facts. So at the very least I do possess an opinion. Ergo, your logic has failed you again. Please press your reset button, your bluescreen is showing.
These people want to see tax breaks and "incentives" removed from companies that practice sending work overseas. They want their pensions to be there, and the investments to be transparent. They want political donations to be on the table to see who is beholden to whom. This "money" is fiat money, all created with nothing real behind it. I'd love to create funds to leverage what I want, but because I haven't bought a politician, I'd be considered a fraud or a counterfieter.
Wow, you are all just patting yourselves on the back. How many "interviews" did he have to do before he found one that worked? Smart has nothing to do with having money. It certainly helps to make more money if you have smart people that know how to hide money, manipulate legislation and buy politicians. Do you really think he is going to stop investing and actually work for a living? I doubt it. These people are not asking for money for nothing. They want well paying jobs not sent overseas.
All of these people protesting want more money for doing nothing. That does nothing. Go and get a better fucking job if you want more money, that simple.
greetings to those who are not awake also known as stupid ignorant dumbasses. are you happy now? martial law will soon be passed in america. you will be imprisoned without trial. without a warrant. and without reason. i say again. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?. are you happy now that your children will now suffer till their dying days because no one stopped this bill?. hope your happy now.... we tried to warn you. we got batons to the face. now its your turn. from a OWS protester.
@littleham491 ooooh socialist. that doesnt mean dogshit kid. you drive on a public street? SOCIALIST? you go to a public school? SOCIALIST! you go to a public libracy? ect. i am canadian. if you want me to move. come here in real life. we will see who moves. it will be you. trust me on this. do not think OWS is going down so easily. we are legion. expect us. join us. or be the governments bitch.
@haynwarrior2k2 Oh give me a break, how could you in anyway obtain knowledgeable information for that argument from either? Seriously. I would love to see the day when Americans are able to execute the process of critical thinking for themselves. He pays more, big whoop. Show your tax return, i'm sure he won't for the same reasons as Romney.. Face it people, not one of these people care about you. It's an exclusive club and we're not in it. The sooner you face up to the facts the better.
This is a prime example of why the OWS protesters need to be informed before they open their mouth. I think what they are protesting is a great idea but this ceo just made them all look like fools.
Occupy movement is really the most failed movement I've seen in my 25 years of living in this world. Bunch of low lifes who failed at life now complaining others have it all, while they didnt do squat shit to make it happen. And now they spent months of their lifes camping on the streets. Months they couldve spend on getting an education or do something actually usefull.
It's just too stupid to be happening. I piss on all the occupiers around the world. L O S E R S, make it happen or S T F U.
It's ironic that only 1% of the occupy movement have any idea what Occupy Wall Street actually stands for and means. In reality both sides have valid points, but here it seems the CEO managed to find one of the many occupiers who just want to blame someone for their problems. All she can do is mumble abolish Bush tax cuts again and again.
Great job picking three minutes of some crazy middle aged woman on the streets, really makes a point. I do not care much for a small amount of people accumulating huge percentages of the nation's wealth, but I also do not care for capitalism because it tends to collapse regularly. Inconclusive but true, people are only happy after a economic overhaul that makes their lives easier.
How can you tell this man raises good points? Really, I don't get it. He's not saying anything clever, it's just the audience that's not prepared to keep a conversation like that. And that's what can be said for the great part of the Occupy Movement: just a bunch of people without a work, not proposing anything concrete because they don't understand what is the main problem in a historical period where technology is bringin away many workplaces.
when faced with facts, these idiots crumble. he may have more money but he also pays more tax. over 50% of the tax in America is paid by the top 1% how is that not their fair share? oh because your not them. fail.

All these people don't realize a simple concept: You need dumb people in a populace more and you need smart people. They are almost complements of one another. If everybody was equally "smart" there would be no economy and nothing else following that. People would probably still be hunting for food. But you need a "smart" few to lead the "dumb" majority. It is a bit sad and harsh, but with hope, belief, hard-work and a bit of luck you can join the "smart" crew :)

@nkelly1432 You are missing the point. I am saying society in general has to draw certain lines. Everyone wants to be rich, but if everyone is "rich" they are at the same time mediocre because they have the same purchasing power. All these people want more money which is a honest need. It's just they have to understand that not everyone there is meant to make 100k a year (by current inflation rate). Unless you want the same wage for everybody then this protest has no concrete mesage

Say what you want about Schiff, I happen to like him. And the man does pay enormous amounts of taxation every year. You can't hate a man who made himself, and now contributes so much to society. He's probably paid more taxes in one year, than most of us will in our lives.

@nkelly1432 They pay TAXES! The private sector is what sustains the infrastructure. They pay for firemen, police, roads, state worker salaries, medicaid, welfare, social security. Without the private sector to tax, the government doesn't have anything. Who do you think pays for social programs? Not the government. Tax paying citizens do. He employs tax paying citizens, and he pays more taxes in one year than you've paid in your lifetime.

The Buffet argument is noble, but it has one deadly flaw: while yes, the capital gains tax is only 15%, far lower than the upper income tax bracket, capital gains (shares, basically) are already affected by the corporate tax cut. Therefore, that 15% capital gains tax is being charged on top of a much higher corporate tax.

@mcmgcostello1008 S-Corp and LLC profits pass through to the owners' marginal tax rate, which makes his statements accurate. If his company is C-Corp, then it's probably taxed 34-38% on profits. He then pays an additional 15% tax on dividends. This is called double taxation.
If he is the sole shareholder, his effective tax rate is 40-45% assuming a dividend. Taxes on profits materially affect what company owners make off their investment. Conclusion: his statements are accurate and valid.

As much as the 1%-99% is disturbing, inequality is inevitable, because innovation in our society is driven by competition, and in competition there will always be inequality. It's just too bad some of the policies implemented to drive growth and innovation fell flat. This protesting gets America nowhere - they need to improve productivity instead of arguing who gets which piece of the pie.

It's not so much the 1% people should be protesting against (although there is a huge amount of unethicalness that happens at the big corporation level) - it's the government, the government's "unfair" choice of bailing out the certain entities within the 1%, and the way the government idiotically spends its tax dollars.

The OWS crowd wants everyone to finish the race together. This country was built on the idea of everyone starting on equal footing. We have moved closer in some respects (Civil Rights Act of 1964 comes to mind) and further in some others (giant welfare costs). Social justice is a farce.
Equality is everyone having the same opportunities - not the same rewards. That is blind justice. Capitalism is about equality of options, and mergers and government intervention/regulation is not capitalism.

one of the problems is that there is this misconception that just because somebody has more, you have less. The OWS movement is about people wanting what the 1% have while having to work less for it. I'm not in the 1%, but I understand that his wealth does not take away from my own worth. If there are any problems, they are with government regulation, not the 1%, who, as this guy said, pay more in taxes and do more for society than the average citizen.

@haynwarrior2k2 Oh give me a break, how could you in anyway obtain knowledgeable information for that argument from either? Seriously. I would love to see the day when Americans are able to execute the process of critical thinking for themselves. He pays more, big whoop. Show your tax return, i'm sure he won't for the same reasons as Romney.. Face it people, not one of these people care about you. It's an exclusive club and we're not in it. The sooner you face up to the facts the better.

This is a prime example of why the OWS protesters need to be informed before they open their mouth. I think what they are protesting is a great idea but this ceo just made them all look like fools.

Occupy movement is really the most failed movement I've seen in my 25 years of living in this world. Bunch of low lifes who failed at life now complaining others have it all, while they didnt do squat shit to make it happen. And now they spent months of their lifes camping on the streets. Months they couldve spend on getting an education or do something actually usefull.
It's just too stupid to be happening. I piss on all the occupiers around the world. L O S E R S, make it happen or S T F U.

It's ironic that only 1% of the occupy movement have any idea what Occupy Wall Street actually stands for and means. In reality both sides have valid points, but here it seems the CEO managed to find one of the many occupiers who just want to blame someone for their problems. All she can do is mumble abolish Bush tax cuts again and again.

Great job picking three minutes of some crazy middle aged woman on the streets, really makes a point. I do not care much for a small amount of people accumulating huge percentages of the nation's wealth, but I also do not care for capitalism because it tends to collapse regularly. Inconclusive but true, people are only happy after a economic overhaul that makes their lives easier.

How can you tell this man raises good points? Really, I don't get it. He's not saying anything clever, it's just the audience that's not prepared to keep a conversation like that. And that's what can be said for the great part of the Occupy Movement: just a bunch of people without a work, not proposing anything concrete because they don't understand what is the main problem in a historical period where technology is bringin away many workplaces.
