Occupy Wall Street List of Demands

Here is a list of demands from the communists that are protesting in various cities throughout the United States as per their web site, Occupy Wall Street.org. These demands are so far out in left field and show such a lack of understanding of economics that I will restrain from any further commentary beyond this. Their demands center on the fact that they believe they are owed something rather than realizing that life rewards effort. Their demands are even more absurd when you consider that most of these people believe in Darwinism and his survival of the fittest theory. Therefore, by demanding something for nothing, they are parasites, living off of those of us that are producers. It is a divinely tragic that they fail to realize that they are obviously not fit, and as such, by their own belief system, meant to parrish. Fortunately, they are humans and have the free will to choose to do something with their lives but most will not. They will simply continue to feed off the host until there’s nothing left.

And finally, their demand for all debt to be forgiven may be the most laughable demand of all. In their infinitesimal minds, they have convinced themselves that someone twisted their arm and forced them to incur debt. You would think someone claiming $60,000 in college debt and a master’s degree would have learned not to buy things you cannot afford. Just a suggestion but look in the mirror comrade protester, therein lies the problem…

Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be met by ending “Freetrade” by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported goods entering the American market to level the playing field for domestic family farming and domestic manufacturing as most nations that are dumping cheap products

Get ready to laugh, these demands redefine absurd.

I’m in debt because I took college degree but they want me to pay the loans back.
I have a degree in liberal arts because it is easy but companies say they want a better degree and now I have to steal and mug people for money as my parents said I am old enough to now live on my own.
I am 35 it is not fair.

I actually agree with this one-

Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an independent and party observers system.

Yeah. And if it is “electronic”, there needs to be some serious paper trail, like 3 receipts printed on the spot, one to be kept by the voter.

Still, paper is the best way to go. Especially if there is a video record of where all ballot stacks are at all times. The whole, “Look! we found ANOTHER box of marked ballots!” schtick must end.

Another policy that must be instituted is raise the minimum wage to twenty dollars an hr.

Why stop there? Why not raise it to $1000 an hour? How about a million.

This is what an emotionalist mentality, that has no contact with reality, comes up with.
