wall street protesters full of crap!

[JB75]

I've watched a listened to all that I can stand about the wall street protesters and they are full of crap. Many of them have went to college on ther parents dime and have no idea what hard time are. I went into the Army because my parents could not send me to school. I see these kids not all but some who had an education handed to them should be slapped back to reality. I support my family by working hard and I feel most these kids have no idea what thats about much less why they are there other than its cool.

Don't get caught up in the ignorant college student thing. They are pawns in a much larger program.

The goal is unrest, upheaval, and discontent which will result in emergency measures that "must be taken" to restore order and to maintain the current powers in office.

Our Republic has never been in more danger.

I do not know how to respond to this danger.

Most of these idiots with nothing better to do are out there because they have been told they need to protest by their profs, 60's hold out parents, friends that fit that mold and shipped in by the unions. Saw union buses in background on one news piece.

Worst part is that most of them (even some of the college edumacated one's) can't even articulate WHY they are there.

And this stuff where the crowd repeats what the speaker is saying (speaker call out a partial phrase, the crowd repeats it back, speaker calls out partial phrase, crowd repeats it back, etc.), and they try to call conservatives "mind-numbed robots. There is the PERFECT example. I am curious how the conservative mouth pieces haven't picked up on this. You couldn't create a better example.

You guys better hope we get change soon, and not the obama kind. My father tells me we're heading right back into the jimmy carter era, I am afraid for my family and I in this coming time of hardship.

That clicking sound you hear is magazines being loaded. Trouble is, I don't think that is the answer.

 

[beararms1776]

These are the same profiles that call conservatives greedy, war mongers, racists etc. and everything else that they themselves are.
Tell em your not greedy and they'll steel everything you got, tell em you don't like war and they'll start you one, then tell them your a conservative, they'll call you a racist.

Obama has done a great job of cutting out the middle class. Isn't that the definition of socialism???

I don't agree with the protesters on most points but it's their right as Americans to hold their protests. I'm all for capitalism but it has to be responsible capitalism if this country is going to stay on top and continue to be a world leader. They are correct in the fact that corporate greed is ruining this country. Corporations can't continue to ship jobs out of the country at a record pace and expect to continue to not pay any taxes. Shipping first world wage paying jobs out of the country and replacing them with third world wage jobs in a first world economy on the taxpayers dime obviously isn't working. With the shrinking tax base how long do you suspect we will continue to enjoy a first world economy and be a world leader? Everyone enjoys our roads and many of the other perks we have come to expect and our prosperity has brought to this great country but no one wants to pay for them. So let's continue to complain about the Soros funded protesters while we vote for Democrats and Republicans because if we vote for a third party or someone the establishment doesn't approve of we are wasting our vote.

Correct me if im wrong .... But im pretty sure every president since the mid 80's to 90's has had a role in this.

Maybe if all the workers of this country did not feel they deserved $15-20 for doing manual factory labor that a monkey can do, the corporations would not be shipping their manufacturing jobs over seas.

Well, they haven't done a very good job. The middle class is still here. Bruised, but still here.

These protesters may be barking at the moon, but it is a stagnant economy that brought them out. If the economy moves into a significant recovery, they'll leave and nothing but their poop, trash, roaches, and used condoms will be left behind.

"We don't want to impose martial law, but we must do so for the safety and security of the citizens; we hope to have order restored soon. The UN has offered to intervene, but we do not feel that is necessary - at this point."

$15-20 or more, plus full benefits and a cushy pension.

Add to this the highest corporate tax rate in the world, and it's no wonder all the jobs are going overseas.

$15 - 20 an hr would be reasonable compared to what some of these guys make. I had a buddy that was an journeyman pipe fitter at the Chrysler plant in Kokomo and he was making $65 an hr .

that's $135,200 a year with no bonus or overtime pay. he said half the time they just hung out waiting for something to do.

Everyone enjoys our roads and many of the other perks we have come to expect and our prosperity has brought to this great country but no one wants to pay for them.

Everyone that uses them already pays for them. The fuel tax is supposed to pay for roads and bridges, of course our wonderful politicians tend to send that money elsewhere for earmarks. Just as they have done with just about every other tax collected for a specific purpose.

Gasoline taxes have been in operation for
well over 80 years in the United States.
Unfortunately, the years of political pressure
have eroded the original intent of gas taxes. In
all too many instances, benefit-principle
taxation has taken a backseat to political
pandering. For instance, current federal
highway legislation authorized over 6,000
earmarks from the highway trust fund. Some
of these went to legitimate transportation
programs, but others were earmarked for
items such as the infamous “bridge to
nowhere.” Today, gasoline tax revenue is spent
on everything from public education and
museums to graffiti removal and parking
garages

This isn't a protest, it's a rent a mob. Bought and paid for by people lurking in the background hellbent on creating chaos to allow themselves to implement emergency measures. Which means loosing all the freedoms we have, and creating a socialist/Marxist state. It has nothing to do with banks, corporations etc... THAT is just the excuse they were given.

This mob has no idea why they're there, or what they are supposed to be against. It is a bunch of spoiled, lazy, fat and happy brats too stupid to realize they are being used, and are just pawns in a very dangerous game.

The Nazi's used the youth to assist themselves into power, don't forget that. I believe about all the socialist/marxist states created used the youth in that manner. This is a case of people using the freedoms we have to undermine and destroy the very system that allows us to express those freedoms. This is just an example of "rotting from within". Again, see Nazi Germany. One of the major problems we have with some is a total ignorance of history.

As far as the brain damage from Fox News, that seems to be the "hip" way to be these days. Seems about everyone who thinks they are really "in the know" jumps on that bandwagon to feel they belong to the some elite group. Funny one never see's any posts about the brain dead ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC. Always Fox News... getting old..... Time for a new playbook guys.
