You must stop on wall street and do something.

  1. 99% more like .00004%- Even with your protestors you say "can't be there" you still are not 99%

  2. No Debt = Destruction-
    If we clear your debt then banks and everyone will stop lending money to anyone knowing that they can go and clear their debt at anytime!

  3. Bankruptcy- If you really want to clear debt their is a legal way to do it....sell all you own claim this.

  4. Hippocratic- You want the banks money, but when homeless want your food its different. The bank wants to keep its money it earned and you want to keep the food you got. Get the picture?

  5. Laughing stock of the nation- People are laughing at you guys. You call yourselves a revolution? not even close!!! People hate how you guys don't just try every available option! I once told someone who protested to take some money and start a business and he made every accuse possible to stay and protest!

We still can pretend to be bystanders and we can protest from literally where bystanders stand. we would have bystanders in between the ranks of protesters. http://occupywallst.org/forum/flash-protesting-an-idea-to-consider/

It seems that one of the basic qualifications for being a TROLL, aside from being an idiot, is being illiterate.

HIPPOCRATIC of or relating to Hippocrates or to the school of medicine that took his name.

I will be more prone to believe that you have the best interest of the majority of Americans at heart when you actually donate 50% of your collections to serve others and not use the 100% to serve yourselves.

You have donations coming in from all over the world, including cash, food, medicine, etc. I dare you to give 50% of all that to other charities in your area - and OWS live off the other 50%

If you do not, you are not better than the rest of the big money operatives, who probably give a lot more that you do.

No, TheStop - I actually have a lot to say and most of it is along the same lines that you express yourself.

The movement has separated the nation into the 99% and the 1%. The split is much closer to 1% and 1% and 98%. As part of their identified 99%, I do not recognize them as representing me in any way. I did not vote for them to do so, I did not appoint them to do so. And, moreover, they do not have the right to do so. It is merely a juvenile means to cut, sort and kill and I will have no part in these simple pranks of a few out of 7B people on this earth.

I was always taught that debt legally obtained was always legal debt and never went away. An individual may be forced to file for bankruptcy but that only removes the legal obligations - the individual still holds the moral responsibility to repay that debt.

I fully explained my position regarding the homeless etc under the post above. I fully believe that this movement has no intention of in any way improving the betterment of the 99% only the 1% within the 99% represented by their own pockets. They have amply proven their intent in several ways - if your eyes and ears are open, you will see what I mean. I would further hypothesize that if you passed an unlimited amount of cash from the evil big bankers down the financial chain, not one penny would leave the hand of any one of the protesters to the less financially well off below themselves. They are simply another leaderless group with their mouth open and their hands out. Any hobo, bum or whatever you would call them, does the same thing. However, they would ask politely and say thank you when you have helped them. What we are looking a is a thankless bunch of the ME generation. Quite sad that even their small numbers represent a very lost part of a generation that should have made a major contribution to an overpopulated world crying for help- and look at what they have given them.

  1. separated the nation into 1% and 99% if you guys passed basic level math you realize that, that is a huge majority. You would fill up NYC 837 times if they all came. Their are very few of you.
