i'm sorry but i have been watching this protest thing for the last few days now and i am not convinced one bit by the ranting and raving and the screaming and shouting no one even knows what their doing or why their even doing it. i am convinced you are all just a bunch of lazy people who don't want to work and pay your bills because if you did you would be working now instead of walking around yelling at the wind. You are just stupid idiots

i wonder what your source of information is. from what i've seen there is a diverse group of people, representing many ages, and levels of intelligence. i suggest maybe going to an unbiased news source. or, at the very least, check out sources that are biased in opposite ways so that you are able to form a more complete and intelligent perspective. also, i support the movement...i have three jobs. i am lucky to have one day off a week. we are not lazy or unintelligent. and we are protesting the fact that big money has taken over the political system, so much so that there is no longer a voice for people who aren't millionaires. it's a pretty simple message actually.

OccupyWallStreet is using Wall Street as a patsey for the real problem. The problem isn't the Nation's employers, inventors, and visionaries like they want to steal money from, its the innoficient govt that steals 1/3 of our paychecks and still cant keep afloat. We need to stop blaming each other (rich and poor) and start reclaiming our freedom with a new party that can help the needy without stealing from us civilians.

So...what is your point?

Like the Republicans always say.."give us a better solution, and we might think about it".

No, you're a stupid idiot! No, you're a stupid idiot! No, you're a stupid idiot!

If you stop sounding like a 3rd grader I might take you seriously. Also, you claim to know how lazy like, twenty thousand people are just from what, your special mind powers?

I am at work right now by the way. Air support.

All I know is that these occupy wall street people are just plain nuts! They have no coherent message, they can't answer simple questions and the only thing I read about them is how they can get donations to keep going, how sad!

How about you educate yourself a little. Try huffingtonpost.com, search occupy wall street, and READ UP! The more you know, the more you'll understand. If you watch the news that is owned by the 1% what do you think you'll find... nothing. Take the time to see why these people are starting a revolution (not protesting) They all have their own reasons, caused by ONE problem... the 1% that is ruining- scratch that- has already ruined America. Let me know what you think after you stop judging and start learning!

my father is apart of the 1%. You know what he does? He's a venture capitalist that invests in start up medical companies that help cure diseases like cancer. He's the hardest working (and most compassionate) man I know- during my childhood it would always seem that he was gone on business trips, trying to provide for my family as much as he could. He started from nothing and achieved his goals not because he was some trust fund baby, but because he worked his ass off in school and he's extraordinarily intelligent. It angers me when I see comments like this, blaming the successful even though you have NO idea where they came from and what type of people they are. I actually agree with these protests, and consider myself a centrist with most things that regard politics (I'm liberal when it comes to social issues) but this whole "blame the wealthy" thing really makes me question how intelligent SOME members of this movement really are. For me, these protests remind me of the similar, radical tea party protests that they're everyone here is so against. Maybe it's because I've come from a unique childhood and can understand the other side, but really I don't think being the extreme on any side is beneficial.
