Any person who would not agree with the occupy wallstreet would have to be one of the criminals that the people are protesting about.I think the american government and nato should also be included in the protest.

It is not about getting other peoples money it is about taking a stand against criminals that have grown fat off the backs of the working class for the last 70 years in this country.

If they aren't forced to share what they have earned from our hard work, they are still rich and we are still poor. If we don't get something, what's the point?

NOBODY wants any money from the rich. They want the tax system revised to be more fair to the entire country, and they want corporate money OUT of politics, how hard is that to understand, really?

WRONG. The only way to get it legally is through the government. Tax rich people and rich corporations alike. Go back to the 90% tax on the rich and increase funding to social services. Occupy wall street until they give back to main street. It's not that hard to understand. We need to close the gap between the haves and the have nots, fair is fair, right?

So you feel you deserve the same things in life I have worked hard for? You deserve the same nice Porsche? The same nice house? The same holidays to Europe and Asia? I will be dammed if I will give to you what I have worked for and earned. You do not deserve what I have. What is mine I earned.

If it will be the case that the government will take from me what I earned so you can live and have the same luxuries as mine, then I will quit working too. Why the hell should I work my ass off to support you? When I can be just as lazy as you and have it all. Tell us, exactly how long you think the money will last until it all runs out? Not very long, not very long at all.

We deserve an opportunity to lead a productive life. Not very easy to do when all the jobs are going over seas and employers insist we work for pittance.

BTW, Where are all those jobs Republicans promised us this last election?

That's the platform they ran on and won last 2010', they gonna keep running on a platform that has shown no results?

They have already held unemployment hostage to give Wall Street more money via tax breaks. How much more do the 1% need?

Let's see, 9 months on only a simple majority of House. Compared to 2 years of Democrats with a super majority.

ROFLMAO!!!!

Seriously! Where are those jobs Obama and the Democrats promised over and over again for 2 years? While they held complete control. ROFLMAO! Leave it to a brain dead liberal to spin deflect and blame someone else for their failures. So typical, so expected.

What Republicans didn't and are still not filibustering everything offered?

Yes or no?

Sorry, the ball is in their hands, where is that jobs bill?

You want OWS protestors to "GET A JOB", so where is the damn jobs bill?

That's right it's always the evil Republicans. I bet you see the boogie man in your closet or under your bed too.

I'm so glad that Democrats are lily-white pure free of all sin. And your LORD GOD OBAMA is seated at the Right Hand of God, sent from heaven to save all mankind.

Ah, deflecting a relevant point by making a lame statement... gonna use the dog whistle "messiah" line on me now?

I don't give a damn who is President, WHERE IS THE JOBS BILL congress is supposed to have for him to sign?

You can hate Obama all you fucking want, I really don't care, but your hatred does NOT excuse the reality of the situation... Republicans HAVE NOT introduced any sort of jobs package, and they aren't going to.

Yeah, see ya at the polls in 2012' to see how well that works for them. The voters see through this shit

So you are expecting a simple majority in the House only to rectify all the country's problems. When your beloved party had complete and total control for 2 years did nothing. ROFLMAO!!

Thank you for proving your ignorance.

Leo

This is one of those days when money slips through your fingers in no time at all unless you're very vigilant about your spending habits. Unfortunately, it will be difficult to stop yourself splashing out whenever the fancy takes you, whether or not you can afford it. You're especially drawn to tempting little treats and luxurious indulgences.
