@Bjtafoya7 And what should it be like? You really think economics in 2011/2012 should be takne like a joke and we should just focus on the fun in our lives? Sure we shoud. While all those who are richer than rich continu to puncture this world dry.
@mrtfotful "Without cheating" just means "within the law" which is still often cheating! Someone ought to shoot you... preemptively! And by the way, if you're any kind of student you should know how to spell and construct a sentence. Does anyone have a spare bullet?
I absolutely love how people (occupy protesters) who babble on to Wall Street and constantly repeating the same tune about why hasn't economists promised anything to the general public just because the US is on the verge of another Great Depression. It's too late for anyone to actually fix the solution of wealthy inequality. It's no wonder such civil disobedience has risen to a higher level than a severla weeks back yet a violent backlash is more likely to occur soon.
@mrtfotful I think some of the occupy protests are more organized then others but what they offer is the possibility of forcing politicians to change something to make the United States, and to a certain extent, Europe and other parts of the world, more economically stable and, over time, more just. That's more than either of us are doing making comments on a Bill Maher video.
@mrtfotful and I'm trying to point out that, based on what you're saying, anything that creates profits is justifiable. if you steal a million dollars and don't get caught, you've gotten a high return on your investment and thus, deserve it. that's, in effect, what the banks have done, only with trillions of dollars.
Too bad, Americans from both Left, Right, Center are all bunch of lazy, disillusioned working slaves who will continue to follow their religion of cheap consumerism and partisan politics while the big boys who run our lives continue to live large at our expense. The next election cycles will be the same. America will be too busy watching reality TV and spend 10 minutes on electing a new senator, governor or president based on partisan politics, when they ALL are in bed with corp monies.
Thank goodness for Bill Maher. He keeps shining the light on the chiselers in this country.
