So to combat the corruption of the system, OWS should perpetrate a fraud on the taxpayers who fund the system through their taxes? You remember the taxpayers? The 99%?

This is not a good idea.

I'm 100% sure that with Communism man exploits man. With Capitalism it's the exact opposite. and " If voting could actually make a difference, it would be illegal".
So instead of letting someone somewhere do something with your tax dollars Man up takem back and put them better use for all


Why not their going to give it away anyway why not use them for some good and hand out some turkeys bought through a locally owned "non-corporate" store that excepts them buy in bulk like those Coupon Domes on the learning channel

Or let that tax money which like poker is already in the pot and could go to anyone whether they need them or they sell them 0.50 cents on the dollar. Taking 200 EBT and getting $100 cash for cigarettes drugs and alcohol
to someone who wants to save money on food
( maybe owns a restaurant or 711 making 100% profit on their 50% investment )
ignore the fact that many people survive from this as well as take advantage of it as well



If you don't know or want to know "Ignorance is bliss for the ignorant and their masters for everyone else it sucks."
But thats whats going down on the streets


I guess doing the right thing is right because taking something that's going to be taken anyways is unethical and morally wrong




Since some poor guy under a bridge might very well get feed from it maybe a even nice person will give him a blanket and talk to him for a little while

Instead of ignoring him and damning BS change from something far to dehumanized to strike at its heart. It's like Isaac Asimov's I, Robot series, in which the law prohibits the killing of human beings; the robots resolve this by breaking their plans into so many steps that no single one is illegal.


Only we can Free ourselves from Mental Slavery


All the ones who understand the human computer that is the system humanity started and every individual is born into
, but the concept of mans evolving nature over time is truly that responsible for the cause and the effects faced today and tomorrows problems

You know why you cant patent a perpetual motion machine simple it already exists running on man power over mans will its an unstoppable force that will eventually meets the immoveable object

How about this go into wal-mart load up as much as you can and walk out the doors load it up and take it away
throwing food at the feet of whoever you meet try that so your hard earned money stays with those who have heart and soul instead of breaking bread for wal-mart which has nether a heart or a soul



But to see the true changes you seek must come from you first and if it includes all in us and let those who exclude them from us will exclude themselves since they divide others from the The wholy team which all races, classes, gender, cultures or whatever else divides the minds of humanity.

Since making something or someone, above or below another and thus an Us V.s a them leads to nothing and failure of all. So when you occupy some place and you wish for a better tomorrow you must have the moral obligation to everyone and something that cares for green only

To make it better one time to be Robbin-hood out here
for the right path back from the wrongs that happen

so go Feed those who are hungry and provide the poor and cooled with warm clothing give them an ear to listen so a voice is heard If all the occupy wherever went applied for food stamps and went together bought all the food they cold and feed everyone who ask for some that would have a greater impact then any other.

No, 3 lefts mean you are going in circles and spinning your wheels.

I sure hope you in no way are a participant in any occupy movement. By you condoning theft to feed the masses makes you no Robin Hood, but you could quite possibly be one of the bad elements that has been discussed lately in these movements.

Na I like to take from things who have something not people who are disenfranchised smell and don't have much for the most part when and if i pass by i always wish those i see a good day maybe give a few stogs to some freindly people talk for a minute with them and go on my way money grows on trees you just have to pick-em

but i don't like occupying a place uses theirs a reason to like Iraq or Afghanistan which they may not say out right what the reasons are, but they had their own good reasons for occupying those nation, just like the people had justified reasons to shoot and blow up the occupiers of their nation everyone was in the right their, they're only facing the opposite way.

Don't you have to be hungry and/or homeless in the first place to get EBT cards?
How do a bunch of middle class people expect to get EBT cards for the homeless?

Doesnt work that way pal.

You have to provide proof that YOU are the sole recipient of said "stamps".
You have to produce income statements, living arrangements, and pretty much your whole entire personal livelyhood to these people before they even THINK about giving you a dime.

So by the time you are finished, and ended up getting your 'food stamps', chances are, you will have realized how much you are NOT doing in life to 'qualify' for OPs money.
Now temporary assistance is ok when one NEEDs it in between jobs or emergencies.
But fact of the matter is, its already being over-used by certain individuals, and there is also already a lot of fraud behind EBT. People using their cards to get drugs(dont laugh, it happens A LOT).
Someone takes their EBT card thats worth lets say $200- sells it for $150 and buys (dope,new dress, new hats,Ect) with that money.

Theres already fraud in that system, someone already beat you to it.
That whole system is a mess. Last thing we need to do is add MORE fraud to the problem.

Everything else- this whole sticking it to the man thing- real misguided.

You stick it to the man by taking from the man, not taking from the people who he is screwing over.

Methinks my hardworking, taxpaying a$$ would like to see anyone who tried that thrown in jail. If I'm going to pay for their lazy behind, at least they can be forced to clean trash off the side of the highway instead of being a straight up criminal, dependent, worthless scumbag on my dime.
Peace.

So doing the "right thing" at the expense of those of us who pay taxes is cool. OK. Two wrongs also make a right, as well?

Sorry, my moral compass doesn't swing quite that way.

You want to fight the Man's corruption by exercising your own form of corruption? How does that fix the problem? I'm actually kind of curious to know.
