Sadly enough, things will have to get worse before they get any better. They won't give up their greed unless they have to.

@luvs2play1 Sorry, just being a bit facetious there. You're right, of course. I just wish these people could see that failed economic policies/"energy policy"/massive spending/borrowing/debt are the problem. We need a COHERENT ENERGY POLICY & end the crushing taxes/regulations on business that only chases it away!  We need to attract capital HERE. We need more than anything to once again become the greatest MANUFACTURING/EXPORTING NATION ON EARTH. Then everybody working/happy. OCCUPY WASHINGTON!

I have see the loss of our great factories ,the ponzi scheme that is the FED!!,The total corruption of our political system,corporations and financial structure .The lie that is free trade.Socialism which is all subsidies Propaganda portrayed as news,controlled by the elite.Our military used as a corporate global police force. If this is not stopped we shall be enslaved by the globalist. I ask for nothing from this system,why does it steal from me!! March on !!!!

@corksterism I doubt that you are telling the truth here. Your sort usually don't have the guts or intelligence to debate with people of principle and integrity. Your daughter clearly doesn't have a mind of her own and is obviously more suited for a relationship with someone connected to one of the financial institutions. Why is she waiting until he gets out of Hospital to ditch him? this is out of character even for her. Best wishes from the UK.

Obama is such a chicken shit and is hiding his head in the dirt, the only way well ever see his face is behind marshell law, this protest needs to demand his empeachment right now ,its plane as day he could care less about us, and right now trying to get us in another war

the ZIONIST MEDIA is INCITING RIOTS. Staged propaganda and violence

research LAVON AFFAIR

research USS LIBERTY

this is how they operate

OWS is the enemy of the BANKER controlled MEDIA.

So they CREATE THE RIOTS in order to make their enemy look bad.

Last month they PAID rappers and actors to agitate the masses and incite anger

This week they're scouring college campuses looking for easily agitated youth who they can portray as OWS protesters
