What is a fact?
A fact is like a steel beam in a tall building, take away the beam, and the building falls.
What is a lie?
A lie is like a welder tearing down the steel beams, and telling every one in the building to stay inside because it's raining outside.
What is the truth then? The truth is that big corporations are in such fear that they have been lead down the primose path to easy money by unqualified chiefs who can shave off slivers of the steel beams and sell them to show a bs profit in time for their performance reviews. The truth is that there are plenty of bad, but also plenty of good companies and banks today, but the bad ones are so fearful that some young whipper-snapper who can out think them at every turn will get ambition and put them flat out of a job. A reversal of fortune is the main theme of their waking nightmere. Such that they even post here on OWS, and look at the content of their ideas, man, maybe a junior-high school graduate is more like on their level right now. Seriously. I'm really disappointed at the level of ingelligence of the OWS haters, if this is the competition, then what are we waiting for? It will be a pleasure to open up domestic businesses in their absense as they head to China squandering the greatest work force that will ever be for one that must be retrained from the bottom up.
There they go, shaving off the steel beams, hoping the whole building doesn't come down on their dull heads.
i'm disappointed by the level of intelligence of the OWS haters and a lot of the people in OWS.
we are waiting for the cacophony to end, we are waiting for the leadership that can't be corrupted and can't be assassinated. The 99% will protect. If we are going to continue to consent to be governed, then we need leadership with vision.
There may be no end, there may be no satisfaction, there may be no leader, just leading ideas, a cleansing of the small stuff that blinds us to the power of finding a few like-minded people to set a new winning example of economic sustainability and mutual respect.

do you really think we're prepared to revoke our consent to be governed? I don't. Should we? Well it's certainly justified, but i think there's a better way for early 21st century human race: https://sites.google.com/site/the99percentdeclaration/

No, I wrote the Declaration of Desperation. I believe the 99% Declaration is an ineffective document. The Occupy Movement will fail if it is adopted. For it will alienate the American People. This is not a question of politics, of right or wrong. This is a question of intelligence. We must be smart. We enjoy popular support, for now. But to preserve America's good will, we must keep our demands narrow: end the corrupting influence of money in politics. That is something a majority of Americans can get behind. That is something a social movement can achieve. And then, and only then, can the other issues be successfully pursued.
