Nearly 50 years ago, it was a bunch of youths protesting the war, because they didn't want to be drafted. Now it's a bunch of loafers who want handouts.

Given that OWS has started and grown specifically to oppose a class of persons who get millions every year in what are effectively handouts, you should look up the meaning of the word irony.

You don't have a clue. You've just bought into the class warfare doled out constantly by Obama & his ilk.

Klass Waaaaaagggghhhh!!!

hehe.

Ha, no. I've known that class warfare has been being waged against American workers by corporate executives for the last thirty years, well before Obama--whom I did not vote for--got elected.

We don't want handouts, we want jobs.

Good jobs. Jobs that we should've gotten after we graduated from college with a degree in a reputable field.

We also want them to get rid of the tax cuts for the rich.

Guess what, the world doesn't owe you a living. There's no such thing as SHOULD be given a job. You're not going to get a job sitting in a park or marching down the street.

And YOU should stand up for yourself & not expect to be handed things.

Here's what it's about. Many more people will come to your side when you are proactive (for “new” Business & Government solutions), instead of reactive (against “old” Business & Government solutions), which is why what we most immediately need is a comprehensive “new” strategy that implements all our various socioeconomic demands at the same time, regardless of party, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 10% Management System of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves; that is, using a Focused Direct Democracy organized according to our current Occupations & Generations. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategically Weighted Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

Join

http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrategicInternationalSystems/

because we need 100,000 “support clicks” at AmericansElect.org to support a Presidential Candidate -- such as any given political opportunist you'd like to draft -- in support of the above bank-focused platform.

Most importantly, remember, as cited in the first link, that as Bank Owner-Voters in your 1 of 48 "new" Business Investment Groups (or "new" Congressional Committees) you become the "new" Congress replacing the "old" Congress according to your current Occupation & Generation, called a Focused Direct Democracy.

Therefore, any Candidate (or Leader) therein, regardless of party, is a straw man, a puppet; it's the STRATEGY – the sequence of steps – that the people organize themselves under, in Military Internet Formation of their Individual Purchasing & Group Investment Power, that's important. In this, sequence is key.

Why? Because there are Natural Social Laws – in mathematical sequence – that are just like Natural Physical Laws, such as the Law of Gravity. You must follow those Natural Social Laws or the result will be Injustice, War, etc.

The FIRST step in Natural Social Law is to CONTROL the Banks as Bank Owner-Voters. If you do not, you will inevitably be UNJUSTLY EXPLOITED by the Top 10% Management Group of Business & Government who have a Legitimate Profit Motive, just like you, to do so.

Consequently, you have no choice but to become Candidates (or Leaders) yourselves as Bank Owner-Voters according to your current Occupation & Generation.

So please JOIN the 2nd link so we can make our support clicks at AmericansElect.org when called for, at exactly the right time, by an e-mail from that group, in support of the above the bank-focused platform. If so, then you will see and feel how your goals can be accomplished within the above strategy as a “new” Candidate (or Leader) of your current Occupation & Generation.

The 60's ideology flirted with the idea of socialism and other communal activities. Despite the propaganda put out by Fox & Bretheren, the last 40 years have proven that compassionate capitalism is the preferred method for most countries to organize their financial activities.

They were against the war because it was wrong.

We don't want handouts, we want democracy

Yeah, right...they were against the war because they didn't want to be drafted.

Not that there is no draft, how many college kids are protesting the war(s)?

[-] 1 points by Teacher (469) 13 years ago

Lots. Look around
