The occupy movement needs to figure out what they want and be intelligent about it. At least have some rational understanding about the things you are protesting about. Ignorance and passion about something just makes you look pathetic. Be more specific about the goals of this movement or you will all just be a mob and be delt with the way a mob should be.

Who is the 1% ? Someone who had the discipline to complete an education so difficult than the 99% can begin understand it. Someone who makes peoples lives better and saves a few lives on occasion. Someone who has a profession that is more stressfull than the 99% could handle. Someone who is paid well for their deication and competence. Don't hate someone because they have proven themselves to be smarter than you.

LoL Cutting block? ROFL The super rich Democratic machine did not want the tax cuts deal to be shot down either. So Obama spent up all his political capital in cramming through health isn and forcing us to buy from private corps, crammed thru a trillion dollar stimulus bill, knowing full well that when he introduced a jobs plan that was sure to go down in destruction, the tax cuts would not be eliminated.....ROFL......Sucke­r.....So vote for him again so he can go after them....LoL

@ChulaKirby so your telling me that the bail out of 2008 was something he did because he thought would look good on his record ? or that the extended tax cuts wasent a bargaining tool used by the republican party to just open the doors to discussions which is on the cutting block as we speak .

[ChulaKirby]

I have no problem with you hammering Republicans. I'm no Republican. But I am also not an idiot either. Obama voted for the "Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008" which was the bank bail out bill. Obama also extended the tax cuts for the rich last year (which the republicans and super rich democrats favored). And we are now required by law to buy health ins from private corporations because of Obama's pen (Republicans didn't support this....All facts sucker....LoL...ROFL

[MacTelar007]

@BjorkDaKlown I don't normally reply, but I believe people have to do something, better to do something peacefully and let those in power know we are tired of it, than doing things violently that costs lives, and I am not a socialist, I am just a mom trying to make sure my kids have a future...I don't have the answers, I only have lots of questions, I believe this country is amazing, but I also think it could be even better...

socialist hacks not worth the oxygen they breath.
