Nothing like a street full of people waving cameras, cell phones, iPods, laptops, etc, all made by corporations, paid for by credit card, and they're protesting the evil corporationts and credit cards.

Hey, I have debt too, and I'm struggling to get out from under it. But I know whose fault it is. Mine.

"immediate across-the-board debt forgiveness for all" and outlawing all credit reporting agencies.

If they truly believe that things like this will help, they are beyond hope. Who do they think would pay for "debt forgiveness? Without credit checks, do they think they would still be able to get loans from those lenders they just bankrupted with their mandatory "loan forgiveness" plan?

The utter stupidity of these people continues to amaze me. I was never that young and dumb. 'Course when I was most of their ages, I was a veteran.

I've had it it with these people. I can assure you I am not one of the 1% these idiots are protesting, but I can honestly, and with vehemence, say that these jack wagons do not represent me. The problem with these losers is that they don't want to do what it really takes to be successful and achieve the American dream.

All patriotism aside, when my husband joined the military, one of the deciding factors was that it was what he could do to support his family. We stayed after September 11 because welove this country, of course, but I would be lying if I said the benefits the military offered continued to be a draw. But my husband being willing to do a job that could kill him to support his family and achieve more for his children than he had (we both grew up pretty poor) to me was the ultimate in love and Patriotism. I have no fancy degrees, so I have worked in retail almost all my life. When my children were young (daycare age), I worked nights and weekends so that we could avoid the extra cost of daycare. It was a sacrifice as my husband and I hardly saw each other. But now that my girls are older, we have managed to provide them with a modest home (that we can afford, no more), small vacations, and many things they love, along with the knowledge that their parents will do whatever it takes to provide for them.  I now work for MCCS, which offers me room to move up to better jobs based on my performance, which is always the best I can give. My husband and I were raised to know the value of hard work and to know that sometimes you have to do things you may not want to do to succeed in life.

so I repeat, these jerks do not represent me. If they did, they would be out there starting from the bottom and EARNING a living instead of demanding one for no effort. BTW, because of what we have earned and saved, hubby and I do not usually get much of a tax rebate, and I don't mind. I'm aware that the services we use in our town and my husband's salary are paid for by those taxes. I don't want to be taxed into oblivion, but I have no issue paying what is fair. What kind of taxes do these losers pay?

... list of demands, which include not only a universal single-payer health care system and free college education but also open borders, "immediate across-the-board debt forgiveness for all" and outlawing all credit reporting agencies.

If someone stuck a gun in your ribs and demanded your iPhone, iPad, Smartphone or other electronic device without paying for it, they would be arrested for felony robbery. There is no difference with the Wall Street malingerers.

The LEFT are FELONS.

Bill Ayers “collective statement” that “a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power” is flat wrong!!

The peoples consent to part with their wealth occurs when they willingly buy goods and services from businesses and corporations that provide them.

True democracy occurs in a free market economy; i.e. when consumers purchase goods and services at the highest price they are willing to pay from producers who offer them at the lowest price they are willing to sell.

It’s a free market “collective” process.

"Is 'Following Your Dreams' supposed to be this Terrifying?" one young woman's sign reads. "$60,000-plus in debt from my student loans and 11 percent interest rate."

You poor little f**k-tard! When I went to school in 1970, tuition was $100.00 and fees totalled $125.00. $225.00 per semester plus books.

Costs go through the sky in a few decades and you whine about the people who lend you the money for school instead of the scum who actually pushed the price above your means. Idiot.

I know this is tangential, but when I see these pictures of these people, they look exactly like undead from zombie movies. It’s freaky, and they’re basically the same, these shambling, aimless, blood-sucking monstrosities seeking out destroying all that is normal.

Obama played that game two years ago when he quoted a letter he had received from a woman who told him, "I don't want government-run health care. I don't want socialized medicine. And don't touch my Medicare."

For those who don't know, this "letter" was a fraud cooked up by Pat Schroeder a feminazi Congresscritter from Colorado back in the 1970's when she made a short-lived stab at running for president.(She couldn't take it and melted down in public amid much weeping and gnashing of teeth.).

Just another one of those democrat lies they recycle like aluminum cans whenever they need to.
