This is more anti-Capitalist stone-age ignorance that makes the OWS another enemy every time it's read. You don't screw your country and your fellow citizens working hard to make ends meet.

did u even read it? please. You are giving nothing but more blanket ideological opposition to a nuanced position that you are too scared to look at head on.

I'm not against capitalism at all. But I can't have a discussion because you are just dismissive. So we will just part ways here.

Yes, I'm dismissive. It's an idiotic and destructive idea, worse than bashing in storefront windows. Some of us are working frantically to keep ahead and you think making your little point while screwing the American worker is more important.

LOL you think that the workers in these stores are American...LOLOL the big stores hire the most illegals, dude... ahahahahahahaha

The most American jobs are created by businesses with less than 500 employees, not the big ones that should be Occupied. And dude, unless you're on commission, shut up. And don't say that you are just to make your point cuz wage workers get the same no matter who comes in.

Plus! AND! NOBODy'S gonna get fired over a one day boycott! Your argument just has sooooooo many holes...

wouldn't you want to shop to stimulate the economy?

[-] 1 points by SenChentLok (15) 13 years ago

There are alternatives. Buy locally (i.e. not from mega-giant corporations like Walmart) and don't use a credit card. Pay in cash.
