Occupy Wall Street Thread Reposted

Squatting, loitering, etc...Why can't these brats be arrested just for that? Especially if they refuse to leave?

These people are a public nuisance. This IS NOT lawful assembly.

There's a good little brownshirt. Way to get in line and serve your masters. God forbid the people peacefully protest in a PUBLIC space. Loitering? In a park? Even a dimbulb like you ain't that stupid.

Are you denying that these people are camping overnight en masse in a public area??

FREE MONEY: Ordinary people have to borrow their money at market rates. Lloyd Blankfein and Jamie Dimon get billions of dollars for free, from the Federal Reserve.

Or the banks borrow billions at zero and lend mortgages to us at four percent, or credit cards at twenty or twenty-five percent. This is essentially an official government license to be rich, handed out at the expense of prudent ordinary citizens, who now no longer receive much interest on their CDs or other saved income. It is virtually impossible to not make money in banking when you have unlimited access to free money, especially when the government keeps buying its own cash back from you at market rates.

Your average chimpanzee couldn't f*#k up that business plan, which makes it all the more incredible that most of the too-big-to-fail banks are nonetheless still functionally insolvent, and dependent upon bailouts and phony accounting to stay above water. Where do the protesters go to sign up for their interest-free billion-dollar loans?

No, he's saying you guys are good little brownshirts. You talk the talk about the constitution, but can't walk the walk.

Unless you're goosestepping.

Rarely mentioned and little known by the general public we are subsidizing big business to the tune of more than 50 billion dollars per year, a projected total of $265 billion over five years, from 1995 to the end of the century. You would be hard pressed to find a Fortune 500 company that is not subsidized annually with millions of dollars of taxpayers' money.

How is this a free market capitalist system when smaller businesses cannot compete with the larger businesses, since they can't buy political influence and thus don't receive politically administered, free tax payers' money?

The capitalist system itself is rigged by the biggest players.

or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

According to Google’s figures, if donations to all religious organizations are excluded, liberals give slightly more to charity than conservatives do.
