The Occupy Wall Street movement is the expression of a barely articulated sentiment. That a well-ordered and just society includes and works for ALL the members of that society, not just those on the sweet part of the bell curve. You can't just wish away or 'fire' the perceived 'under-performers' or non-team players - a society is not a corporation. You're stuck with everyone, like it or not. They don't just go away nor disappear so that your stats or competitive profile looks better.....

That argument is centuries old and is never underrepresented in political discourse. Quite the opposite. And the things done in the name of it, well...

College students making it does not add to it's legitimacy or efficacy.

yeah...... it bores any motivated and reasonably well-adjusted person to tears, but it's still a real situation. It's the burden of living I guess, like tolerating members of your family. College students, I agree, will need to have their arse duly kicked. Still; if you set up house rules, it's quite reasonable to expect that if you follow them, you won't be worse off than if you didn't. Otherwise, what's the purpose?......

Even if you're an overindulged self-absorbed freeter, you get the point for observing it.......

Simple Minded:

"The 99% have spoken. They plan to use their numerical advantage to strip the 1% of wealth. If the 1% are not moving their wealth and their businesses out of the West at light speed, they are much dumber than I imagine they are. Fall out and blowback shall be immense."

The only problem with moving money from the West is that it leaves one open to vagrancies of a different kind and it will only be a matter of time before the locals start up their own Occupy, except of course if that haven is in Space.

So why not just decline the option to make Gazilllions, and make Billions instead and reinstate Glas-Stegal and live in a reasonably civilised society.

The Ubermensch alter ego of money has just about run it's course, leaping over millions of people and destroying tall buildings, it's about time for money to realise it cannot be anywhere it wants to be at any time.

Nobody is talking about giving money a new home, just giving it speed limits, safety standards and stop signs to be obeyed, as all other Human endeavour is modified, as was done after the first great Depression.


The people who repealed Glas-Stegal knew what they were opening the door to, no doubt it was the deal done for Clinton to get his Presidency and once the Wagons were unprotected the bandits swooped.

Of course trying to follow that e trail would be one of the greatest investigative stories of all time, making Watergate look like a speeding fine, it is a President giving over the keys of the Countries safe to white collar criminals.

The precedent of American Presidents not being held accountable, in a court of law, by following Presidents, has led to unprecedented and ever grander levels of crime, firstly Clintons opening of the safe, secondly Bush's war cime in Iraq, now can Obama top this? it's almost like there is no choice but to, unsustainable growth will cause ever expanding waves of crime.
