We need a Revolution, now more than ever.

@kjbigslim i would agree...usually. but in modern times, that's not the case. you're better off being an unintelligent rich white kid in the US, than a really smart, lower class child. My whole family, we're the top 1%, and i always thought stuff like what you said is true...but it's not anymore. All of my family went to college, but made average grades and they're all rich from my granpa's businesses.(All international)i like being wealthy, but im beginning to see that most rich, don't earn it.

@kjbigslim oh i agree sir, but i'm saying that my family makes (i know this sounds crazy) too much, and our employees get dirt, and they know that. i just worry, because i think some of my family members in high school don't even try because they know after college, they'll be set for life, you know? But i see your point.

---all about the minute you targeted innocent people ( children ) people are getting tired of your occupy and harassment it won't be long now that private citizens are going to start defending themselves .

--- vetoed the Keystone pipeline that cost this country over 20,000 jobs and millions of barrels of Oil so he can play politics in the middle east funny how your not protesting that, No let's protest against other private citizens and terrorize them because they worked hard and made money this movement is a joke nothing more than Lazy thugs with no drive to succeed , now your targeting Catholic school girls and clergy what's next? The whole world saw on the news what the occupy movement is----

[crimsonpride48]

What's this got to do with attacking Catholic school girls and Clergy? Or private citizens that are trying to provide for their families? Shouldn't you be occupying the cause? The White House, Senate and the congress there the reason for this country's decline , Obama has incurred 4.5 Trillion dollars of dept in 3 years funny your not saying anything about that or that this government has cost the people of this country jobs by sending those jobs overseas for political gain or Obama just ----

@tifeni1208

so what you're saying is they should wear rags, not drink coffee, and use smoke signals to get their message out? You're a typical American, and that is no compliment.

[tifeni1208]

@PatriotsDomain Cute. Being ROBBED. What a joke. These people want to go up against corporate America, while sipping latte's from Starbucks, Talking on their "smart phones" and wearing name brand clothes. Hypocrite much? The ideal was probably good at the beginning, but now it's just a bunch of people complaining about wanting things for nothing. Typical of the lazy American. ;)

@tifeni1208

oh look, another sheep who defends the bankers. I guess you don't realize that WE the taxpayers were robbed, our money went to bail out failing companies. You enjoy being robbed, eh?
