Well I don't know much about what you guys are talking about .... I will say this, I do NOT agree with the OWS movement, from what I've heard and seen on the web through their own media....... (you know the streaming one) anyway from what I have heard they seem they want the world GIVEN to them!!

OWS is protesting the banks and system which brought you 2008 and this economic
situation. Did they do anything to you? things aren't right here, where you can make
more money destroy the nation than all of use can do combined with hard work.
that is what we are protesting.

If they don't have to.. then why do they?

Pointing things out such as the
CRIMES OF OWS
is letting OWS speak for itself..

I know dude, the cause of the financial collapse was business practices that wouldn't have been allowed unless bankers/people with ties to bankers had pushed for legislation that allowed said business practices.

But somehow, a responsible, common sense approach to regulating the financial behemoths that have unimaginable power constitutes an overall larger, more oppressive government. Not allowing bankers to engage in awful business practices that line their pockets and screw over millions is apparently paralled with the TSA and the Big Brother type characters who only seek to oppress the American populus in the minds of those who stick to the "big government bad!" ideology, no matter what, like beezer here.

What is wrong with these people?

The sad thing is, they pay for it and they don't have to, they CHOSE to.

Apparently, a bias is looking at something from all angles instead of having a narrow-minded view to a situation.

Trolling is coming up with an opposing view and using facts and their own web site to illustrate their inherent program.

No sir. The question is : Are you going to sit here and tell a bald faced lie and say those anti OWS have not exaggerated, stretched the truth, used childish name calling, anything they could just to get a jab in?

Occupy movements around the nation are gathering in Washington sometime in early December. I would love to make it down there, but I can't miss it due to my school schedule.

I also haven't spoken to a single person within the protests who is pro-Federal Reserve, however I don't believe the Fed was primarily responsible for the financial collapse, although they had the ability to prevent many of the business practices but didn't.

They're definitely in on the corruption, and let's hope there is a serious campaign within the occupy movement to focus on the Federal Reserve in the near future.

If this was truly a "Popular" movement there would be those millions in the streets. Getting the word out? It's been what? Two months? They've accomplished what really? I mean in real terms>

It's only the start....and it's hard to accomplish anything when both parties are nearly entirely corrupted.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. It's the youngest Americans that always bring about major change and create the push to make that change possible.

They have no future Slayer. Huge college loans and no jobs to repay them. SS and Medicare are headed for cuts (in the least). Anyone with any type of government job, other than military, is seeing benefits slashed or losing their jobs entirely. Programs helping the poorest of our country are on the chopping block.

Flat taxes and national sales taxes are beign proposed that will increase the cost of living on those who can't afford the increase.

This is only the beginning. Next year people will be everywhere as the election nears.

I'm not a communist or socialist, and I am not anti-capitalist. That is not representative of the occupy movement as a whole, but rather individuals within the movement, AKA it's a generalization.

Yea, a certain person mentioned above who posted a few posts up from mine here, spends every second of his existence trying to dig up silly little isolated moments out of the TONS of folks in the Occupy movements across the country.

Its the stuff that SNAKES or SHILLS do here to make the Movement look negative.

The same tactics used in the past by those same types of people who were against the RIGHTS for women and minorities. Same type of DEVILS with the same tactics, just now in modern day...

The average hard working and decent citizens in this country are SICK of the NONSENSE going on in this country and realize and appreciate just how beneficial these movements are to us and our children and their children.... We want our country BACK!!!

The SNAKES want the madness in this country to continue... business as usual that leads us DOWN the DRAIN...

They are afraid that their life of cheating, scamming. and bankrupting this country for their own personal GREEDY gain will come to an end. Notice, the SNAKES and SHILLS have been out in full force lately.

They are afraid...

They should get a REAL JOB. Oh wait, they are the 1% who WATCH US DO ALL THEIR WORK, while they WHINE about everything and spew propaganda against We The People voicing our DISPLEASURE of our country going DOWN the DRAIN by them.

The very people who are RUINING our CHILDREN and GRAND-CHILDREN'S future.

Of course, snakes and shills are ALWAYS relegated to those with an opposing viewpoint. How very ATS of you...

It's amusing though.

I can go by the fruits of your labor, which counts a whole hell of a lot more than your words.
You use your efforts here to bash, marginalize and delegitimize a group of people who
are actually out there protesting the entities that prop up the FED, you are kidding yourself man.

Spending such effort to attack individuals that didn't do squat to you, effectively trying to
extinguish any hopes of reform by anyone, nice job man!

Again, what Anti-OWS seems to forget is that amongst a few rapes and crimes here and there.....you attempt to condemn and entire Movement because of a few bad eggs.

Again, Many of the blindly overzealous OWS supporters confuse some who are critical of the movements lack of direction, lack of leadership, lack of a real agenda as being "Anti-OWS" when in fact many of us agree with the general premise however have major issues with this "You are either with us or against " mentality.

As far as those few bad apples I wish I had a nickle for every time some OWS supporter {Who never condemns} thos actions but is hell bent trying to educate the rest of us that it was just a FEW BAD APPLES!

I'd be able to hire all them Gimmie Gimmie protesters

Deny Ignorance, don't illustrate it.

Best line ever!!. You need to copyright that and make t-shirts. Then set up a stand outside Zuccotti Park, Congress and the White House - as a start.

That wasn't the question. If you want to try and deflect I understand. It won't work with me.

If pointing out crimes was all you guys did.. I'd prolly just shrug and let it go.. unfortunately.. misleading and childish sums things up from your side.

So what about the banks beezzer? The same banks that fund every political campaign and
politician that runs? What do tell to those of us who are sick of the corruption?

Yeah I know.
Next will come that because I think the OWS crowds lack of direction, agenda or leadership is because I support the Corporations and Big banks..

Either that or I'll be called a shill, Neocon or whatever else they are going to want to fling.

Same problem, different solution. That's not a valid reason to throw in the towel and accept the corrupt system that we live in.
