An extreme example of trite rebuttal meant only to incense a tangential argument. One likeness they do have in common... Use of Hemp. Try again... You lose.
You're the disingenuous propagandist who attempted to compare the petty poutty limp wristed protestors to those who fought and died in the American Revolution for Independence. Typical of the Marxist, you lose the game and cry:
"Nuh-uh! I didn't lose. You lost! Loser, loser, loser! You're the loser, because your not the laborer and everyone knows that labor is the means of production, so you lose, loser! See? See how you lost? La la la la la I can't hear you - loser - La la la la"

Nope, most of the millionaires in the U.S. are self made. Only 5% to 6 % inherited their money.

If the OWS movement was really wanting to change the system, they should be protesting in Washington. The majority of our problems lie there. From a government with out of control spending between played out wars and bail outs, they need to be put back in place.edit on 10-10-2011 by wardk28 because: (no reason given)edit on 10-10-2011 by wardk28 because: (no reason given)

Its just most of the millionaire are actually small business owners. They don't live the lifestyles that one would assume with being a millionaire. I believe in capitalism because I have seen it work first hand. My brother in law spoke only a few words in English back in 2003. After working long days and going to school at night, today he is a business owner and has 32 employees. Wall Street and big business are like a spoiled child ( like the ones you went to school with) and the government is the parent that didn't properly discipline. If the government is corrected, the banks and big corporations abusing the system, will either have to play by the rules or go out of business.

Could you find me an example of that society? Communism has left nothing but death and destruction in its path. It simply collects everything from the people and gives it to the oligarcy. That is what we are experiencing right at this moment. This isn't about capitolsm this is about a hand full of monoploy people buying all the politicans and passing laws against the people and for the banksters. Your precious leftists, communists and globalists have already brought us to ruin. We have already had enough of their take from the poora dn give to the rich. While people claim to protest wall street they endorse Obama and his Administration who is wall street. How do people explain they are putting people into office, protest against their policies and protest against themselves by saying they want more. Go figure I certainly can't made sense out of it.
The answer is a far complicated one that involves something new and fresh. No old system (such as communism) will work. we need something new. NWO is right over the rainbow

At least SOMEONE seems to get it. This OWS is what you call controlled opposition. Thesis, antithesis, synthesis. Problem, reaction, solution. It's an old game, but it always works. When they unveil it, the sheeple will BEG for the NWO.

Working Families Party is paying people to go protest.
For those candidates that qualify WFP offers substantial paid-training provided by senior leadership, on varied issues such as: advocacy, public speaking, mobilizing, fundraising, networking and organizing. We invest in passionate people with excellent communication skills and a full benefits package is offered to those candidates that qualify. In addition, there is opportunity for advancement and travel to our satellite chapters and out of state affiliates.
If we think that there’s little difference between the two major party candidates, running our own candidate can send a powerful message to both the Democrats and the Republicans that working people can’t be taken for granted.
Brandt Hayes a 21 year old college student cheered Chavez and told the EP, “See that’s a people’s revolutionary, that’s my leader!
“This movement of popular outrage is expanding to 10 cities and the repression is horrible, I don't know how many are in prison now," Chavez said in comments at a political meeting in his Caracas presidential palace shown on state TV.”
Chavez’s comments spread through the crowd in New York as well as other cities and elated demonstrators cheered. As Chavez's speech from Venezuela was played on electronic devices in the crowd a giant hammer and sickle was hoisted in New York.
