Americans Agree With Occupy Wall Street

[jgreer]

This is why the 1% is scared. According to a new Time Poll, 79% of Americans agree with Occupy Wall Street that the gap between the rich and the poor has grown too big.

The Time Poll found that despite a lack of consistent positive mainstream media coverage, Americans overwhelmingly have a positive opinion of the Occupy Wall Street protests, 54%-23%. This poll contained a tidal wave of bad news for the 1%. By a margin of 86%-11% respondents agreed that Wall Street and lobbyists have too much influence in Washington. Those polled also supported prosecuting financial executives who caused the 2008 financial meltdown, 71%-23%, and they also agreed with the protesters that the rich should pay more taxes, 68%-23%.

It doesn't seem like they are calling BO out at all.

Even though he has perpetuated this whole fiasco by not having the Justice Department investigate the financial collapse fully. Nor do the protesters seem very concerned about all the military action taking place, while under Bush it was a huge deal to them.

This does seem to contain a hardcore of seasoned lefty protestors. I could respect someone arguing that he whole system needs revamping but not when you proclaim your rage but support one of the established parties. It's just silly.

I have been waiting for this for years to happen, for 10 years I have been planting seeds of revolt against goverment/ corperate greed. It was not just the corperations that caused this problem. The movement may fade out but what really counts is at the ballot box. Have you figured out the puzzle I left you are you still to stupid and calling people crazy (that's for Mr. D. Buy the way what does D stand for Dickhead.)
Any time you want to match wits with me lets go. Bet you thought I ran away not a chance. Like I haven't trashed knuckle heads like you before. (Good Luck).

The number puzzle?

It starts with 3 I think.

[Captain Obvious]

On one hand, I can understand why the whole "occupy wall street" thing is happening. On the other hand, it's just another "feel good" activity.

I peruse the Pittsburgh Post Gazette daily since I'm from Pittsburgh and keep up with what's going on there and they had an "occupy Pittsburgh" thing going on. I didn't read what it was for, who cares but give me a break already.

So why - why go through all of this? What is the purpose? To persuade politicians to stop chumming up to rich people? Occupying a city park is going to accomplish this?

Politicians have been in the pocket of rich people for centuries, since politics emerged for the most part. That's not going to change by sitting on cardboard boxes in a playground. Two things can change this by my reckoning, violence and/or action.

By action (and violence for that matter, just ask the Libyans) I mean that the people have the power, they just don't know what to do with it. The non-violent, action approach would be to boycott big business coupled with using the vote wisely. What does the latter mean, I don't know - politicians will always be influenced by money since that's where the real power is but if people got together and say boycotted Wal Mart. Stop shopping there, shop at local stores. Yeah it will cost you more but how much more effective would that be than a couple of hundred thousand people sitting in a park?

Move your investment plans to cash or bonds. Yeah, it will cost you (maybe) but you send a message that is felt rather than read in the headlines.

[Conley]

Those are very good points. I have always thought that 'voting with your wallet' is the way to go. A lot of these guys the bottom line is the only way to reach them. So if you feel that way, pull your money out of Bank of America or Chase and put it in a credit union. Cash out your investments and put them in things besides stocks (like real estate). Don't like our trade deal with China? Don't buy Chinese products, don't shop at Walmart, etc. There are ways of making it happen in my opinion but they involve making tough choices, not getting high camping in a park and banging on bongos.

[Captain Obvious]

Sitting in a park is easier, nobody wants to take actions that aren't easy.

Next week this will all be forgotten.

So what's the point?

I actually disagree a little bit. I think this is a baby step on the way to some kind of revolution. I'm not saying it's going to happen in the next ten or twenty years, but I think people are getting fed up. You can see that in the approval ratings of Congress and Obummer, and general expectations about the economy. It is starting with the people who just want to stick it to the man, whatever that means, but if things keep going this way and our currency collapses I expect we will see street protests eventually and large scale ones, like they are having across Europe and the Middle East.

Spain too has started up again

MADRID, Spain (DPA/AFP) — Tens of thousands gathered in cities around the world on Saturday in protest marches modeled on New York’s “Occupy Wall Street” movement and sit-ins that began months ago in Spain.

Media reported that more than 150,000 people from across Italy took to the streets in Rome, encouraged by Spain’s “Indignados” movement of mostly young people, who began protesting in May at high unemployment and inequality.

The demonstration in Madrid on Saturday came exactly five months after Spain’s so-called “Indignados” (indignant) protest movement was born with a rally on May 15 that turned into a sprawling protest camp that occupied Madrid’s central Puerta del Sol for weeks.

People marched through the streets against government cutbacks to health and education spending, unemployment and corporate greed as part of a global day of protest.

The “indignant” movement then spread to Europe, finding strong backing in crisis-hit countries like Greece, and then worldwide – last month reaching the centre of global capitalism in Wall Street.

Five columns of marchers converged on Madrid’s central Cibeles Square after walking for hours from different points across the city before proceeding to Puerta del Sol for assemblies scheduled to last throughout the night.

I'm fed up. You're fed up. On the other hand, I don't think either one of us would want to be involved with this. Too often (actually, almost always) these protests become steeped in Utopian and leftist dogma.

Right...but the fact that we're fed up I think is different from how it used to be. And we've talked about moving our money out of banks to credit unions (especially with the $5 ATM fee). So if we continue to get pissed off we could be the ones who actually contribute to the change by voting and by using our money in more productive ways.

[MMC]

They were arresting people at 1 am in Chicago at Grant Park. Right after they started to set up Tents. This was last night. Temps are starting to drop down to low 40s at night with 10-20 mph winds.

I'm actually going to look into that soon. I may keep the Chase account just for the mortgage and put everything else into the credit union.

Even though he has perpetuated this whole fiasco by not having the Justice Department investigate the financial collapse fully. Nor do the protesters seem very concerned about all the military action taking place, while under Bush it was a huge deal to them.


This does seem to contain a hardcore of seasoned lefty protestors. I could respect someone arguing that he whole system needs revamping but not when you proclaim your rage but support one of the established parties. It's just silly.


I think you might be feeling now exactly how I feel about the tea party.

To the extent that the tea parties support the GOP, good point.

[wingrider]

this is a protest that is going nowhere, as usual it is being fed by militant lefties, who are down on capitalisma nd want to end it , meanwhile it was capitalism that gave them the means to ( halfass) organize this, cell phones, internet, computers, cameras, facebook etc.. from what I have seen of this fiasco it is a bunch of disgruntled people who are just full of envy and hatred.

what do they hope to accomplish, what are their goals, what do they want.?

the rich are laughing all the way to the bank, the feds don't care they will use this to thier advantage if it gets out of hand to far it will be martial law.

they have no stated goals or platform..

it is just a bunch of people acting out their frustrations, and that is all it is,

when my kids were little they would throw a tantrum, I usually just laughed at them and sent them to their room untill they could get over themselves.

[Elibe]

hang on how is giving money and bailouts to banks a form of capitalism

that is socialism which i thought we were against

you gotta realize these bankers gamble on stocks et cetera when they win they keep the winnings when they lose the government covers their losses

thats not right

[wingrider]

you all know as well as I do that words have consequences,

we have a President that has spent the last 3 years villifying successful people.

all this protest amounts to is the repercussions of that rhetoric. this isn't about bailouts or government in bed with corps or banks, if it were these protestors would be marching on DC instead of wall street.

watch the outcome of this caarefully, the feds will use this to invent another crises that they have to control, usefull idiots is the proper term for what is going on.

[Pendragon]

Name these examples of Obama vilifying successful people. I for one have not heard nor seen any of it.

These 'idiots' as you call them are fighting for your rights and for all the citizens of a free United States.

[wingrider]

OMG.. have you been asleep for the last 3 years? evertime that fool of a prsident gets on tv he has something derogatory to say about the so called rich, they don't pay their fair share and they game the system all kinds of things, do I have to go to youtube and post all the videos for you?.. what is it with those on the left? do they think that people are allowed to earn just so much and the rest belongs to the state? just how much of what a person earns should belong to them?

You mad bro?

Just as I suspected, you are unable to provide a single solitary example of any attacks Obama has made on the rich. If he were really attacking the wealthy in this country how do you explain all the donations he is receiving and how has he done so well fundraising?

Furthermore asking that all pay their fair share in this time of need is not class warfare nor is it unjust.

[Elibe]

he's just talking about letting the bush tax cuts expire there

that isnt derogatory lol

besides that if he really did have it in for the rich do you think he would have left those tax cuts in

pen is right you cant find a single example of him attacking or saying anything derogatory about the rich

he even says he is one himself!

I see you all are afflicted with selective hearing.. instead fo sitting in the cheering section and screaming hell yeah at the top of your lungs ,, shut up and listen to what the man says.. God gave you two ears and one mouth.. that means you listen twice as much as you talk and maybe you will learn something..

[MMC]

Today they were talking with some guy out in Seattle on the Michael Medved Show.Again the Number one mantra.....stop corporate greed. Fairness and then equal justice. This guy was talking about how it is all connected. Yet there are no leaders. No demands of anything concrete.

Then went into a spiel about campaign finance reform. Others were saying they want Jobs. Then there was a slight slip up wanting to change policy and the statement to force politicians to do their jobs. Immediately the calls shot to then Why don't they march on Washington. Why Wont they March to Washington.

Any that are for the backing of this so called movement. Want jobs, yet they are preventing others from doing their jobs. Ask any of one of them. Do they like see the markets drop by 200pts. Do they they think that their protests don't affect local buisness. Do they like seeing those areas lose more revenue. As most are in economically depraved areas. Parks on the poor side of town other than Wall Street and few others.

What is it they are hoping to accomplish by blocking up traffic in major urban cities and taking over public parks. Loading of the Courts with cases all over misdemeanors of the very minor sort. Costing the governments to lose more money and wasting more time in dealing with these protests rather than accomplising something for their own Cities and States. Many are released on eye-bonds so there is no money involved.

In Chicago 175 arrests were made. Chicago Cops don't mess around. They arrested and took their shit. Cleared Grant Park with no problems whatsoever. Split up between 3 police stations or more. Sure they can get their stuff back. After its all inventoried and then brought to one place.

Now winter is fast appoaching. Last night temps drop to 40 degrees. Without the Wind Chill Factor. Its going to get cold here in the Midwest real fast. Same up in Seattle. Cold Rain and Wet Snow. Now Maybe the Wall Street Occupiers can squeeze out a week after the rest of us get hit by old-man winter and Mr. Freeze. Then what do they do? Then what are their plans? Since they are all trembling to March on Washington.

[wingrider]

all this is about is trying to kill capitalism in the USA.. somehow these fools think that the freedom to have an idea and build on it to create a better life for themselves and their families, also it is people who build on these ideas that create jobs, sure there is a problem with corporatists and government but do you throw out the whole system because of a few crooks, I say NO WAY,, you find the crooks and chaarge them in court, I am beginning to think these idiots want to have a caste system here, the only problem i see with that is the protesters will wind up being in the lower caste, with no way out of it.

with the system we have now you can work your way out of it, you are the master of your future, I have no patience with people who blame and game the system because their own life is a failure,

Yep Lo .....thats what many are saying about the Anti Capitalism. But then when they start getting asked the right type of questions it is clear some of them did not think things out. Althought according to this guy they will have more demands coming even tho they have no leaders.

[Conley]

I agree with you guys. I think we are just seeing corruption, which exists in every government everywhere. Compared to other countries the corruption in this country is a mere fraction. Look at Europe, South America, etc. Furthermore it has been proven that Capitalism works. All that is needed in my opinion is a shrinking of the federal government and more responsibility from our citizens to educate themselves, vote accordingly, and get the right representatives into office. Sounds easy when I put it that way. :D

Which truthfully it was meant to be that way. There was no career politicans! I think the closest was John Quincy Adams Jr. He's the only President that went back to the house to be a Congressman. Think it was for one term and he got out. I didnt go back to look to be specific.

Point is if they wanted to make this into a statement then they should have marched on Washington DC. Straight to the Capitol Building, the White House, and the Congressionsal Plaza. Yet they don't do this because a great many of them support Obama and they don't want to hurt him any more than he already is.

Have some balls and at least be like the teamsters and tie all of DC up with their trucks or something. They didnt care who was the President. Not even with Kennedy at the helm.

[Conley]

Good point. I wonder if our founders ever considered term limits for Congress?

This morning they had Doug Shone on a Couple of Radio Stations. He use to be Clintons Pollster guy. He says the Some of the Dmes and the White House are about throwing in with this self called movement. But that he doesnt think they should and that this is going to backfire on them.

He cited 52% were extreme left. Extreme enough to use violence. Against Capitalism. agaisnt Corporate greed. In Seattle that group they stated that 31% were made up of skin-heads and Neo Nazis. Then In Chicago Some guy got up and spoke and he was the head of the Communist Party. Telling all how they were with them.

In the meantime he commented how now Obama has gone with the extreme left and there not going to be much talk of bi-partisanship. hence the talk of putin the blame on the repubs for blocking his Jobs bill. So they will piece it thru now.

CHECK THIS OUT-

Occupy the Planet: Saturday, the world witnessed a global revolution with the explosion of Occupy Wall Street, an explosion brought about in part by the nebulous and notorious international Internet hacktivist collective known as Anonymous.

Saturday, thousands marched in Rome, Sydney and Madrid as Occupy the Planet went global. In cities across the country, and across the world, global citizens advocated for economic and social justice. Reuters reports:

...protests began in New Zealand, touched parts of Asia, spread to Europe, and ultimately resumed at their starting point in New York with 2,000 marchers decrying corporate greed and economic inequality.

The Occupy the Planet movement originated in late September when Anonymous released a video calling for the Occupation of the Planet. That call to action has now come to fruition.

Anonymous has been part of Occupy Wall Street from the beginning. Occupy Wall Street is an ongoing non-violent demonstration opposing corporate influence over U.S. politics. Inspired by the Arab Spring, the aim of the demonstration is to maintain a sustained occupation of Wall Street and the financial district of New York City. The movement has since been emulated in cities across the U.S., and as of Saturday, around the globe.

Occupy Wall Street was originally organized by Adbusters, a Canadian anti-consumerist magazine, and was subsequently endorsed and promoted by the notorious collective known as Anonymous. Utilizing social media, Anonymous enthusiasts around the globe have been responsible for promoting and coordinating Occupy Wall Street as well as other occupations across the U.S., and now across the globe, via social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.

Just as Anonymous played a large role in the Arab spring, it looks as if Anonymous enthusiasts are playing an equally important role in the American Autumn. The occupation of the planet continues....snip~

There you have it gentlemen. Their beginning! The American Autumn? Connected to the hackers. Wiki-leaks alledgedly. If this was something out of the Twilight Zone it would be funny. Rueters and the Associated press all got the scoop on this guy and now organization. Same dudes that broke into the Pentagon, Justice Dept, NASA, and I will bet money they have hit many of the lobbyists in DC. Thoughts?

[Conley]

Yeah, it reads like something out a science fiction novel or something. I am sure stuff like this is happening but at the end of the day these guys haven't really done anything significant. They're pissed about Bradley Manning and Wikileaks but nothing they've done approaches the impact of those two. I think they are like a fringe group trying to gain credibility by claiming things that they are not really responsible for. JMO of course...the real threats remain terrorism and as far as computer tech, the Chinese.

You can check it out....Video's all over U-tube and other sites. These guys have left no stones untouched. Media outlets around the World are reporting on them. I can't believe they are using the masks from that one movie. Vendetta!

Yep Asian Times, The BBC, U know their World Wide if the BBC is picking this all up. Holy shit what if they start hacking into the ALL Seeing Eye. Thats television. They do that and there is going to be some major shit over it.

We know we busted some of them and immediately they responded with that there would be released info from classified docs. Plus it was from all around the World. This is a trip. So now we know there is a Leader or Leaders behind them.

One thing is for certain. Most of these occupy protesters don't even know who is behind it. They just keep shouting out 99%ers or 99ers. Looks to be all connected even to New Zealand and Australia.

I havent seen them Occupy anything in Mexico? Havent heard anything about South America either. Nothing in China. Korea or Russia?

They have shit up on NASA, DOD, Ikea Dutch TV, WikiLeaks, What the US media was reporting at the time. Whoever it is sees the US is trying to keep him out of the World of Media.

"D" you been downtown NY lately? What would they have to do to get on all those screens down there? Each differnt News Screen. Rockefeller Plaza etc etc.
