THERE IS ONE RULE OF THUMB - my property (me myself, my belongings, intellectual) shall belong to me 100%, and I shall be in command of it 100%. Your shall be in command of yours 100%. You & I suppose to be in command of 0% of other people's properties. Everything that governments, congresses, police, etc are doing shall not change this equitation. No government and no power however democratic it is shall have a right to change it. This is your test for any intervention of any kind.

This isnt about jobs!

Its about corporate influence on our government. I cant stand people that say you should be grateful things are not like that country. We are evolving as humans and with your attitude we will be content. Are you happy with the illegal wars? The war on drugs? Constitutional rights stripped away? Oh I remember I should just be happy i'm not in another country? LOL

You sir need to do some more research. Start with a guy who didnt flee his country Dr. RON PAUL 2012

@Scientisticsoviet Also include afghanistan & in that number.

@boyzorro About to make the same comment. All proper academic research indicates a million or so by the civil war itself. And entire soviet period if you include all deaths from famine like you said only amount to about 15-20 million.

You've lost me at 50 million people killed by Soviet revolution, where did you get this number? The recorded lists of victims amounts to about 3 millions in 70 years and even the most frivolous estimates run closer to 15-20 millions. If you start with a lie that kind of negates everything afterwards. Sorry

@huntingtonbeachify It means you have 22% unemployment. That's bad right?

[huntingtonbeachify]

@LifeisGood762 Why?

[LifeisGood762]

@huntingtonbeachify 78% of occupiers work or own businesses? That's not exactly something to be bragging about....

[huntingtonbeachify]

Your wrong! Its not envy at all! It is about saving people and the earth. We want to go back to our constitution and get corporations out of our government now! Those occupiers give the whole city a platform for our voice. 78% of occupiers work or own businesses. End the FED and bring all our troops home now. Is that clear enough for you? You are a fear monger. We are not satisfied with other countries have it worse so go be a good slave! 50,000 homeless in LA alone?

14:00 Nailed it. I am disgusted that as a 20 year old I will be forced to hear this garbage for the rest of my life. The sense of entitlement that has pervaded my generation baffles me. I have never understood anyone my age who wants something but doesn't want to work for it. Maybe I'm lucky, maybe I just have great parents who instilled a sense of hard work in me. I don't know. But the fact that this is what the world sees in the future of America should have China licking their lips.
