read comments of a$$holes preaching to themselves?
Ive been trying to say that, that the movement is a fringe lead by radicals who are operating straight out of Rules for Radicals and well minded people are falling into their trap. Be smart and organized and throw off the nonsense of anarchy and marxism and certainly not violence if you want to get anywhere. The country is laughing at OWS. even my hyper liberal friends say it is worthless.
They are worse in person. Did you see them on Colbert? Screwed up beyond repair.
I'm a convicted felon in a case that was fraud -- trial and appeal.
I wrote a book to expose that. http://overthecoals.blogspot.com/
Worked with Chris Dodd's office to investigate fraud? You probably don't have to look much past Chris Dodd himself. The problem with most Americans is that they are total sheep. They don't think for themselves, they have no ability to solve problems, and their DESIRE to keep up with the Jones overwhelms any common sense they might have. The banking collapse was evident to anyone paying attention.
Absolutely right. Thanks. There are two humans not in a trance. I thought I was the only one.
Agreed.
One of the hardest things i find when trying to help people is to do long range planning. Thinking past the immediate day or week even for people who aren't scraping by. They fail to plan for emergencies or financial debacles, and then when it happens they are totally paralyzed. I contribute this to a failure to learn from experiences. Most people learn early on that fire will burn you and to stay away from contact with fire. If they would apply that principle to the rest of their lives they would avoid a lot of headaches.
Propaganda has paralyzed their minds. They could be out of their trance if they just considered they might be acting against their own interest for a reason.
Go Auburn.
The story of The Ant and the Grassshopper still holds true.
Exactly
True.
