Look on the bright side: all of those who are out of work can join the OWS movement and eat and drink for free. Plus there's a nifty tent somewhere for them to share with another protestor. I'd say win-win!!! ;-)


When you say a tent to share...with sex to boot, whether you want it or not.

Wait a second...isn't unwanted sex called rape?

Oh yea, I forgot, they police themselves. That ain't working out so well for the victims is it?

OWS equals epic failure as far as I am concerned. And to think I once supported them.

Fool me once....

NYC arrest records: Many Occupy Wall Street protesters live in luxury

Are they sure they are the 99%?


I really enjoyed that article, and make sure to see the slideshow that goes with it.

Wow, they are really down on their luck, aren't they?

Can I get a ration card?

Even once a month would be a improvement.

Opps! TMI

That won't work.
These freeloaders will get offended that the coffee is not an entitement then they will ransack his place, probably send in their Black Panther ghestapo police force as his employees get robbed, brutalized and/or raped.
Just look at the lady trying to sell some teeshirts, they want to string her up for profiteering. No this coffee store would have to prove they are selling the coffee for the same price as they paid or they will be branded a profiteer.

In Soviet Russia profiteers were executed. No joke.

Meet some of the impoverished OWS 99%. err I mean Mumzy and Daddy's house. I wonder if Chad is available for some badminton this afternoon down at the "Club". [Darn it I broke a nail typing this!]



Texas: This mansion has five bedrooms and, from the looks of it, plenty of space for a drum circle. Its economically disadvantaged occupant was arrested while “occupying” Wall Street on October 5.




New Jersey: This quaint 3,800-square-foot manse sits on a quiet cul-de-sac, and it’s valued at nearly $500,000. The poverty-stricken Occupy Wall Street protester who lives here was arrested on October 5.





California: Just a half-hour’s drive from Berkeley, this victorian boasts 3 fireplaces, granite countertops and a wet bar. It’s a 5,000-square-foot anti-capitalist’s dream — at least for one cash-strapped Occupy Wall Street protester arrested on October 1.

You know what the difference between capitalism and communism is?

In capitalism, man exploits man, and in communism it is the other way around.

No, it's North and South Korea, not some cutesie meaningless statement. See there for a true comparison.

I saw this on The Daily show and i can understand having had to clean restrooms at work!

"According to one restaurant owner, the restroom sink was ripped off the wall because a protester was using it to take a shower. And that's not all: "Somebody walked into the store and # all over the place, and they thought it was fine to leave it like that," says one worker. "

gothamist.com...

It seems people are traipsing in and out all day using business restrooms but never buying anything. seems very unfair to the businesses to me.

I had to add this. So since you are accusing me of being a paid lackey does that mean that you are a paid sponsor or dis-info agent of the OWS/Socialist America movement? To make those nay-sayers like me look bad?


Nah. I don't believe that, either,

If they were "paid agents", they'd have all been fired by now for underperformance.

On the other hand, if either side, OWS or Corporate, wants to PAY me to be an internet spokesman, I'm game. I'm a thoroughly mercenary sort, and can turn pro-OWS at the ching ! of a cash register.



Until the money is right, and I'm getting "my fair share" out of OWS, then right and wrong must guide me.

Are you reading this, Soros?

Call me!

One of the things I love about this thread is how people immediately write it off because Fox News reported it.

I'm sure that those folk would be all up in arms if MSNBC reported that the Tea Party was negatively affecting business.

Them racists!


The actions and support of OWS are making themselves known.

They will be but a blip in the history books within a year.

That made me laugh! So true.

Why can't we ALL understand that every person is different? Some people are smarter, some are stronger. Some are fatter, some are thinner (I have to work like a dog to keep the weight off...NOT FAIR!!!, while my friend can eat whatever she wants). Some have better eyesight, some get sick easier. Should a genius get a labotomy because (s)he is more gifted intellectually, to make everyone intellectually equal?

Is it fair? No, because fairness is impossible.

If EVERYONE had EXACTLY the same amount given to them, some would squander it, and others would prosper. Sure, some would exploit others, and others would try to help others, but that's just the way it is. We all have different strengths and talents. We are NOT all equal....in ANY characteristic.

Only in inalienable rights are we the same.

There is no "system" that will make life fair. Not capitalism. Not communism. There IS no FAIR.

Ask yourself this question....

In the 60's while people were protesting, marching, organizing sit ins etc etc, all in the attempts to create equal rights, did they also create an affect on others around them who were trying to get to work?

The answer is yes. Protest in the 60's created traffic issues, shut down entire blocks of businesses, shut down day to day operations of Universities and Campuses. These protest created havoc for people who were simply going on with their day to day lives and that is the point. That is how you draw attention to an issue by forcing others to deal with the issue.

How effective would the protest of the 60's have been if instead of staging a sit in in downtown Birmingham, AL they chose to stage a sit in around some farm field in rural Alabama? Have you ever heard the old saying, "Out of sight, out of mind"?


Maybe they should go sit in the lap of our rich congress and president and family and do some real good... harass them for a long while instead of the few businesses that are still going and still employing people.

Well the Tea Party overthrew the Liberals in the House of Representatives last election so they are a real and viable entity that accomplished something.
Not like these communist agitators that just want to deficate in the streets, oh and fornicate, do drugs, rape in tents, steal whatever they feel like from the surrounding area and each other. Guess they are too busy partying to actually accomplish anything like the Tea Party did.

I believe that we will see even more violence in the streets when even more liberals are tossed to the curb.

But they will not have anyone to blame but themselves as most of them don't vote anyways.

Sure, let's pretend that communists do not exploit people. That's the ticket!

Here's another "cutsie" statement:

Capitalism embraces humanities natural proclivity towards greed, communism naively asserts it can be indoctrinated away.

See you in the rehabilitation camp. Buy me a beer when we get there?

No beer as it would only be potato peel homebrew vodka filtered from whoever owns the cleanest dirty sock that would be available under a red flag.

Either:

A) This is Fox News BS. Why do people still take them seriously?

B) When you're fighting for the employment and freedom rights of EVERYONE, the incidental effect on a few people does not matter. at all. It is all for the long-term, eventual good even for those people that allegedly got laid off.
