The Tea Party, OWS, and Revolution in the Air

Why don't all you #$%$ OWS douche bags go and protest the colleges that have been ripping students off for years with outrageous tuition rates that go up twice the inflation rate every year, so they can offer great programs like Classical Literature, Philosophy and Underwater Basket Weaving, that after graduation, can't get someone a job at the mall making $10 an hour? It's not Wall Street ripping people off. It's the colleges and universities that have known for years they peddle fraudulent degree programs that cannot be converted into real life income.

4% of the population are unemployable and will be Welfare lifers.

Some of the 4% are however destined to become OWS leaders.

Here's a suggestion: do away with the wrongful interpretations of the Supreme Court that a corporation is legally a "person." GE, Exxon, Apple, Ford, GM - these are not examples of "persons," and should not be afforded the same rights and protections. Similarly, do away with the legal fictions of a single proprietor small business with no employees as a "corporation," and limited liability partnerships. These are typically done to avoid personal responsibility for (real) persons' actions.

Did you know that Canada has outlawed all large campaign
contributions? Both corporate and individual. There is your
solution. Simple. Easy Peasy.

This character seems to think these protesters are democrats. They are not politicaly oriented.

--Granted, there are a huge number of lazy welfare
abusing poor people that want something for nothing.
There are also a huge number of wealthy people in
our government abusing our trust and taking our taxes.
What I am concerned about and fight for everyday
is the working poor people. There are millions and
millions of them. Everyone says they are stupid
and made bad choices. But it is those "smart" people
that made "good" choices that drove this country into
the dirt,... and we paid them all the money.

ALEC is not a lobby; it is not a front group. It is much more powerful than that. Through ALEC, behind closed doors, corporations hand state legislators the changes to the law they desire that directly benefit their bottom line. Along with legislators, corporations have membership in ALEC. Corporations sit on all nine ALEC task forces and vote with legislators to approve “model” bills. They have their own corporate governing board which meets jointly with the legislative board. (ALEC says that corporations do not vote on the board.) They fund almost all of ALEC's operations. Participating legislators, overwhelmingly conservative Republicans, then bring those proposals home and introduce them in statehouses across the land as their own brilliant ideas and important public policy innovations—without disclosing that corporations crafted and voted on the bills. ALEC boasts that it has over 1,000 of these bills introduced by legislative members every year, with one in every five of them enacted into law. ALEC describes itself as a “unique,” “unparalleled” and “unmatched” organization. It might be right. It is as if a state legislature had been reconstituted, yet corporations had pushed the people out the door.

Today almost all world media in hands of OWO puppeteers like Murdoch. They manipulate and brainwash people, many of ass don’t understand or realize that we are all victims of evil plans of OWO. I know many people don’t trust information on you tub bat you tub one of few independent sources we have today it is reality. My Brothers do your own research check worldwide movement Zeitgeist maybe that is a solution for all of us.
PRESS RELEASE: 2011 Zeitgeist Media Festival Success - 12,000 Meals raised via 40 Events in 20 Countries.
The 2011 Zeitgeist Media Festival, Global:
The Inaugural 2011 Zeitgeist Media Festival Global Event set, which enabled
a socially conscience Arts and Media platform across 20 countries,
accessing about 10,000 people in person and almost 200,000 through free
live Webcasts, was a notable success.
Organized by The Zeitgeist Movement, a global, non-profit sustainability
advocacy group seeking to change the current social order, this
unprecedented concept has generated a resonance that is expected to grow
every year as it continues its development. The integrity of the project
seems to rest not only with the social intent, but also with the 1000s of
Volunteers who worked to make it happen without any financial gain and even
severe losses. In a post event interview with Peter Joseph the curator sponsor of the main event at Hollywood's "Music Box", he stated "Yeah, I lost about
$35,000 dollars when I expected to lose only $10,000. But it was worth
every cent for the dedication and commitment of those who helped execute
such a large production was unmatched and just glorious. This is what
Community is about and we are only just beginning with our efforts to unify
the world."Coupled with its Global Food Drive Initiative via The Zeitgeist Movement's ongoing "Z-Drive", over 12,000 meals were facilitated through regional Food Banks to feed the ever growing the poor and starving population.
"The Zeitgeist Media Festival is a global, Non-profit, multimedia event
working to utilize the Arts as an avenue to create sustainable values in
the pursuit of a better world. Recognizing the power of art and media to
help change the world, "The Zeitgeist Media Festival" engages the artistic
community and their power to changes values. It proposes that needed
changes in the structural/economic workings of society can only manifest in
tandem with a personal/social transformation of values in each of us. While intellectual knowledge serves its role of showing the path, many in the
world follow their feelings- not the knowledge. The Zeitgeist Media
Festival hopes to bridge those levels, while also illuminating a focus
where changing and improving the world is no longer considered a fringe,
suspect or ever dangerous pursuit- but rather the highest and most
honorable level of personal/social integrity we have."

LMAO...the boston tea partiers were LIBERALS in ?EVERY sense of the word.....

In 1980 we started to lose the consumer protection afforded
by the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. By 1999 it was completely
gone. It was destroyed by both parties. They were bought out.
Wall Street has since become a rigged gambling house.
It no longer has much to do with corporate ownership.
Day traders continually siphon off money from the system.
This leaves less value in the corporations that Wall Street
is supposed to represent. Day trading and derivatives eventually
puts all the money in the pockets of the large banks.
Some go broke, some get rich,... one big gambling house.
They make more money playing the market
than loaning money out for interest. So they quit loaning.
Loaning money is supposed to be what banks are for.
But now they are able to play the market with other
people's money and keep the profits since they are a bank.
It goes on to this day even after all their lies and deceit
in the 2008 mortgage debacle.
"The little guy need not apply."

Top 1% hold 42% of all financial wealth in the USA. The bottom 40% of Americans
(120 million) hold only 0.3% of the wealth in the USA.

FACT: The United States has more income and wealth inequality than most
countries that have been studied, including India and China — countries that
are traditionally viewed as having unequal distributions of wealth. -----This is
according data gathered by the Central Intelligence Agency for 2010.

Although the Flea Party is mostly a bunch of communists, there is a common ideal with the Tea Party in that they both opposed the bailouts.

OWS is not a left versus right issue. republican or democrat we are all apart of the 99%. There are tea parties that are also OWS protesters. I for one am an independent and I support the protests.

Wake up People you are being con'ed ! Please search for and Read:
"545 vs. 300,000,000 People - By Charlie Reese"
No More Status Quo Candidates !!! i.e. If the Media likes them then they will
Scr3w you just like Bush & Obama did!!!!!!

We definitely need a tax on all wall street financial transactions.
It would be huge benefit to the American worker. It would slow day trading
tremendously.... depending on the percentage of tax. Excellent thing to
push for.

The government dropped the ball. They knew that letting manufacturing
jobs go overseas would hurt the standard of living in the USA. They are
nothing less than criminal. They sold us out for personal greed and power,
with inside deals,and bribes from big business both national and foreign.
The big corporations wanted a global market and cheap labor and they
were willing to pay for it. Both parties accepted bribes for at least 30 years
and they still are. They should control the foreign currency exchange by
whatever means neccessary. Also adjust the tax structure. Keep the
tax on the corporations and businesses the same or
lower it, but give them a 30% tax credit on the amount they
spend for wages to hire US employees. The employees
would receive a large wage but it would still cost our
businesses no more than the amount equal to the
wages paid to workers overseas. The government
will recover the money from taxes paid by those employees.
Then our citizens would be able to compete with the
low wages paid overseas and still get good wages.
If the government falls short of tax revenue, pick up the
difference from import tarrifs. The tarrifs would have to
remain small, otherwise our imported goods would cost to
much more. A tax credit comes straight off your tax bill,
whereas a tax deduction just comes off your net income. Big difference.
The businesses would start hiring like never before.The numbers are there,
this would work and it would have worked 30 years ago.

Congressional incumbants will be looking for cover in 2012. Gridlock and political gamesmanship with our economy, jobs, and their refusal to consider balancing entitlement cuts with tax increases to the wealthy will hit the Congressional obstructioinists in the groin. Bring it on!

first amendment keeps us free - the second amendment keeps the first amendment free !!
for ALL citizens of the USA !
speak up - your voice will count more if it can be heard -
whatever your ideas/positions may be !!

Conservative Populist Revolution is an oxymoron. Sam Adams is feeling pretty disgusted with his baby about now.

OWS has supporters world-wide, Tea Party has destroyed the GOP.
