I went to college in state because I'm not dumb and waste my money on out of state tution. I got a degree in an actual useful field. Business administration with a focus in finance so I could one day run my own business. I worked 30+ hours a week and easily graduated. Wasn't able to find a career job for the first 2 months of only applying to high paying career jobs. Ended up taking a pawn shop job full time because I refused to take unemployment and got bored of sitting on my ass all day. Within a month of working a low paying job at the pawn shop I got hired at a high tech firm we all know very well. Seeing people waste the police's time and their own time crying about god knows what cuz none of you people have an idea what your doing.

As long as we are blaming each other, the robber barrons are lining their pockets. No one here is asking for a free ride. Everyone wants a fair shake at life. But in the meantime the U.S. Political system is entirely bought and paid for by very, very powerful interests that could give a shit if any of us live or die. They want us to fight and blame each other... and keep people afraid. It is the name of the game.

Cool story bro.

Too bad the corporations through government are just going to end up stealing your money anyway.

YOU STILL ARE PART OF THE 99%

\Wow, this person just figured out something we all missed; I think what he's saying is to go to school and get a job. Wait it's more involved than that. Go to school, get an interim job while still sending out resumes for a higher paying job. My brain hurts.

OWS isn't about handouts??? Where does it say ??? It's against corporate welfare and handouts?? OWS is about fixing the economy so people can get jobs.

WOW! this has absolutely nothing to do with any of that! If you didn't automatically dismiss the people on wall street as bleeding heart liberals and actually took the time to look into it, you would understand YOUR THE 99% THEIR FIGHTING FOR DUMBASS! They want an end to political corruption and corporate greed! The want to protect YOUR job! they want to protect YOUR retirement fund! This has nothing to do with lazy out of work people who want a hand out, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

Why do some people congratulate themselves so hard for working? I've worked since age 16 & I don't think anyone should give me a medal for it, I also don't think it entitles me to tell other Americans to shut up.

I am completely self-supporting and don't have six figures of student debt (only four figures which I'm slowly paying off) -- however, I still think there's plenty to protest about.

I too, have been a hard worker and overly responsible since a young age. But regardless, I am struggling, overworked, and exhausted. Barely able to afford a cheap apartment with 50 hours of work a week, and afraid to take sick days. Obviously I am not the only one. No one supported me through college. I paid rent the one year I lived at my parents house after I was 18 (I moved out at 17). I have one dog, and minimal non-necessary costs in my budget.

This was my case as well, except I got an internship in my Junior from High tech comp we all know VERY WELL -- got a full time offer for after I graduated, worked part time with them while I was finishing my double major - Management and Finance. Graduated, moved to NY for the job and here I am..... MARCHING FOR THOSE WHO WERE NOT AS FORTUNATE AS ME AND WANT THE SAME OPPORTUNITY.

You all go home and get a job! Stop blaming Capitalism for your failures! If you don’t like Capitalism, you can go to Cuba or Venezuela where it’s not welcome. But promise you won’t ever come back to the United States please! Give up your citizenship.

We promise we will stay here and regulate capitalism so that it benefits everybody and not just the rich.
