"TAX THE 1%" Human Banner

SF cab driver Brad Newsham does it again. This time with a big assist
from The Other 98%. "Build it and they will come." Brad marked off the letters and over a 1000 people came to lay their bodies down and spell out "TAX THE 1%". Who knew protest could be this much fun and this beautiful.

Blackstar, it's not about "making everyone equal," but about giving everyone a CHANCE, rather than coddling Rich Kids to become, as the worm turns, our new Masters -- JUST BECAUSE they ARE Rich. Is that what Capitalism is SUPPOSED to do -- elevate one part or dynasty PERMANENTLY above some other part? We have NO problem with Capitalism -- IF it simply facilitates commerce and business and the society's other legitimate aims; leading to what it perennially promises us: a better life for all.

@awiscguy I am equaily a patriot for asking for change as was my brothers before me who died at the hand of Pinkertons and police. When labor has a voice, all of us do well. We are allowed in America to try and change things and even belong to the communist party if we wish ( i do not) Are we any less patriots? I'd say more so after all it was revolt that made us! Again if you are wealthy and afraid of losing some of your millions, I understand you not wanting to return to 71% tax as was the..

2wiscguy the n"peanut" comment is rude and maybe we can disagree without saying rude things. Glad you make so much money and sure your worked hard for it. We on the side of labor have also worked hard to even out the playing field. We are the party that bought with blood, 40 work week, safety, vacations, wages to live on and a voice. When business needed us ala 1970's we all did well-now with global markets and automation, wages have stayed at 1978 rates. While the top has gone up. This is ok?

@awiscguy I'm sorry but i will never join a Communist movement I'm a patriot right to the beginning And i am what most would consider "Middle Class" Yet Obama considers me to be "Rich" For no apparent reason, Maybe because i support Ron Paul to the day i die?, And the person who shot at the white house was part of Occupy DC, Pretty Obvious because he had an Occupy DC T-shirt and wristband on. People at the occupy movement need to occupy their heads because a peanut doesn't seem to do it for them

[awiscguy]

@MegaViperGaming The guy who was shooting at the White House had Nothing to do with the OWS Movement. He is a nut case. In reality Most of the violence during the OWS has been by outsiders. IF you are a wealthy American, then I understand your comments. but they are misplaced. More then likely you are one of the 99 per cent. Time to fight back-peacefully but loud and proud. Join us.

They call the wall street protests peaceful, Yet you are shitting and pissing on cars, And you are threatening people, Raping Women and Screaming "I'M GONNA BURN THIS CITY TO THE MOTHERFUCKING GROUND!" Not to mention the guy in the occupy DC movement started spraying an AK-47 at the white house and almost assassinated obama, Yet when the tea party has a rally or protest that has minimum to no crime involved, it is considered violent, WHY DO YOU LET THE MEDIA BRAINWASH YOU PEOPLE?
