Been watching the news lately and seeing numerous references to the "Occupy Wall Street" and the "TEA Party" rallies...
It appears to me there is a vast difference...
The "Occupy Wall Street" protestors have no jobs and expect everyone else to provide them with a living wage.
The "TEA Party" protestors have a job and want to keep their earning for themselves.
That simple view misses the hidden points...
FDR built a house of cards this pandering to the social welfare advocates and bigger government is better.
LJB remodeled the house of cards with the "Great Society".
WJC pulled the plug when financial planning was dropped so that everyone could have a house.
So, we went from a "chicken in every pot" to "pot in every home".
And now, reality is setting in....

My suggestion is to take ALL the folks there that want socialism, and bring them to Cuba, and take all the folks in Cuba who have had socialism for the last 60 years can come here to replace them, and become productive members of society. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

So, the movement has spread to 82 countries and the violence associated with the "occupy" crowd is growing.
The news shots show a bunch of signs protesting a wide range of topics; all wanting a living wage at government expense. They don't appear to be offering anything in return for the "living wage".
They want the government to find them a job. Interesting, an entity that does nothing is supposed to create jobs. Somehow, that doesn't compute...

My kid in Afghanistan <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" /> just hit up on Facebook that he hopes none of his friends are involved with any of that occupy Wall street movement. He said all it is doing is tearing up the thread of society. Couldn't of made me any prouder to hear him say that. I was worried he might like that being a youth and all.

Having to resort to F-bombs or birdies is represents a lack of intelligence and respect.
The youtube videos are very telling of the protesters. No wonder they don't have jobs....
