okay what the fuck, occupy the world? Fuck off |
Corporations have lobbyist to lobby/protest for them to government on laws they want created. Overall goal - to make their bottom line look bigger. "Wall St. Occupiers" and Occupiers in other cities - their voicing out and protesting to the government to what they want. Some want proper fiscal spending by government and sound government that will make the economy stable. However, other messages that you see makes the hardworking people out there who did hit bad luck along the way look like they are leeches with the way they are misrepresented by the ridiculous demands. Overall goal - to have more money in their pocket. Different sides, same goal. I'm all for protest as long as it is peaceful and they abide by the law. |
/b/tards are a bunch of edgey ADD pleabs. They haven't changed a thing and they won't unless they get centralized. Instead, you have a bunch of kids in masks taken from a borderline political film trying to throw around political conspiracies they read on an internet forum. You can't take these immature underage more then likely unemployed losers seriously. http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/6...ffirain018.jpg What the hell is the plan? Do they even know what they are trying to achieve? People will start caring when the real 99% starts to protest. not a bunch of college kids. I went to the protest and the only family figures I seen where hippies. If all of the real welfare cases joined together and rallied for equality then people would start to listen.a quote from one of my favourite books 1984-If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there, in those swarming disregarded masses, eighty-five percent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. |
Another stupid waste of time Why cant people just take responsibility for their own actions or inactions. Do these 99% want a socialist life? Where everyone is equal and gets whats given to them by the government? How can you call the banks greedy because people are to stupid to control there credit use and spending? Hell I'm 35 years old and have ZERO credit debt I have no credit cards I had them I payed them off I cancelled them and live by cash now. Why would I give the bank hundreds of my money for debit card use when I can just budget my week. They are not greedy they are a business offering a service and you are using it. If you want to make money then do something about it like get a job get a skill further yourself and quit sending your hard earned dollars to China VIA Walmart and quit wasting it on credit. People are getting more and more addicted to cheap easy living with no thought on the consequences of it and no thought on how to get out of it. |

Most of the Directors and executives I know are all becoming "roadies" (they all have like $2000 road bikes. Although they only bike to work when its sunny. Maybe it's just me, but I see this as becoming very popular. Off topic, but also I notice there's an increasing trend for older people to eat less meat and more vegetables due to health benefits and calorie intake etc. |

about the picture that the OP posted about that guy thats so proud of himself that he made it.... guess what? tons of people aren't lucky enough to find a job that they went to school for... many are on the edge of their budget and have made compromises multiple times already...... its not clear cut black and white. the people that have problems with money are to blame yes but look around... the entire world is out to get people like that. credit cards get easier to get, 40year amort on a 5percent down, shady real estate market hype, bs carbon tax, evergreen line tax, hst bs, bike lanes, people here flaunting 100k a year earnings and pay 7k in taxes.... |

For a society that over 50 years has decreased the high school drop out rate from 50% to < 10%, we don't seem smarter, in fact financially we seem less educated. |

Not saying that you're wrong, but also saying that it's fairly unreasonable to expect people to learn something they are never taught, and can only learn through trial and error in many cases. |

You act like people don't know how to read, that we don't have libraries full of great books they can get for free. I think its absolutely reasonable to expect people to make an effort to learn something important to them even if it is not formally taught. I think it is unreasonable you thought "trial and error" was the only other way, talk about more silly excuses that the system lets people down. I said it before: its easier today to get ahead than at any other period in history. If you stop making excuses, you'll see that. |

though i do agree that the gap is getting kinda ridiculous (to a point where now if you're not rich, you're poor, middle class is disappearing), i hate those lazy mofo's who dont do shit, but keep asking to "share the wealth", boo hoo get a job and stop complaining |
the 99% should take a fucking shower. |
Description Spoiler! :fuckthatshit: |

I thought I would add this to forum as this guy is running for mayor and is a part of the occupy group. Quote:
The "poor" And just who does he consider to be the "poor"? The able-bodied guys who are wearing North Face jackets, using their iPhone4, drinking the $4 Starbucks grande cafe mochas and protesting at the Occupy Vancouver site at the VAG? People have a choice. I have to say if I were mayor I would raise the price of public transit at least by 10% |
