| Coolness: 129660 | Im basing this thread on the fact the whole movement was misguided from the beginning.
Governments make laws and policies so instead of going after Wallstreet you should have gone after the government. A bunch of people hanging out in public spaces holding signs and sleeping in tents does absolutely fuck all to change anything. Besides the whole situation is precarious at best because you're at the mercy of the law. All the citys have to do is evict you from illegally occupying a public space, which is precisely whats happening now. As for the message there's too many crazy ideas, not enough focus. Like this whole thing about we should all eat trash to be ecological, like what are we a 3rd world country??? The last straw for me was reading about these guys in Portland (I think) who voted a DOG called Shelly to be their leader because it was a NICE DOG O_o When you start seeing stuff like that, you know its time to call it a day Update » Blisss wrote on Sun Nov 20, 2011 @ 5:21am Here's the video. It turns out the dogs name is Shelby not Shelly. Next they'll be electing cockroaches to run the kitchen |

| Coolness: 129660 | Wallstreet owns the government? My goodness man...
So you're saying Wallstreet voted the government in, decided to spend 14 trillion on wars, and then forced people to take out loans with a gun to their head? |

Not directly, but Wall Street directly or indirectly corrupted the government. Wall Street is a symbol for Corporate America as a whole ( the way I see it at least). When the government decides to spend trillions on war, Wall Street is god damn happy. Boeing, LockHeed-Martin 's shares rise on the stock exchange. Grreedy and corrupted politicians receive brides for engaging the american population in stupid spending. And when the corporations faced bankruptcy 2-3 years ago, they asked for more money to prevent the world from crumbling. The government is the little easily corrupted middle-man. Wall Street is the big guy briding everyone in its advantage. |

 Coolness: 91330 | I find that quite ironic and moronic from you that you had the nerves to call me "Uncle Tom" here on this great forum and yet you keep defending the elite in charge as you only are a DJ and I really, REALLY doubt that you have an income similar to those you defend. |

| Coolness: 129660 | Bof
Si c'est un metaphore je comprends un peu mieux. C'est pas tres claire dans le video s'ils se prennent au serieux ou pas. Et franchement c'est pas parce je ne suit pas ce movement comme un mouton que je suis 1%. D'ailleurs il devrait avoir une autre categorie pour les gens comme moi qui sont ni 99 ou 1% |
