except for those countries where the peasants rose up and killed the Masters / Intellectuals / professionals and after a while appointed themselves Masters (with significantly less wealth than when they started)

Not everyone is a peasant. In fact, you'd be very surprised how many #OWS supporters really aren't peasants. Hint: They outnumber happy bankers, I can guarantee you that. Why? Because the people you see occupying Wall Street are the tip of the proverbial iceberg. There are lots and lots of well-to-do people who are supporting this movement. I'm one of them.

We'll see you around....

Well-to-do people don't call themselves well-to-do, wannabe.

Yeah. What else don't well to do people do or don't do? I'm 52. I live in an amazing home. I make more money than people. I'm good with that. And I and my other "wannabe pals" are going to support this movement.

So, really, best of luck w/ that whole yelling in the distance at a group of people you don't really understand thing...

Wannabe, you are broke as a joke and you know it.

[-] 1 points by groobiecat2 (746) from Brattleboro, VT 13 years ago

LOL. Yeah. Not so much. Although I was smart in converting all retirement funds into cash just before shit went south in July. Just trying to figure out if I should diversify into gold or not. All you Ron Paul folks have me spooked.

:D

Cheers.

Benefitting a lot of big bad financial institutions with that retirement account aren't ya?

[-] 1 points by groobiecat2 (746) from Brattleboro, VT 13 years ago

Hey, this isn't about all corporations--I have no financial interest in the corporations who got bailed out on Wall Street. If you think I'm going to stuff my money in a mattress, well, that wouldn't be terribly clever. Just because i think that the system is really inequitable and that raising taxes a few percent and instituting some common-sense regulations on rapacious financial institutions who trade risky derivatives is imperative, that doesn't mean I'm against the whole system.

I am not.

But, if you'd like to conflate those issues, you're certainly within your rights to do so.

Peace.
