A lot of people say why aren't we protesting and rallying in Washington? Wouldn't that be where we would have the most attention?
That might make it look like we don't support Barack Obama. We need to focus on Wall St to help Obama redirect the wrath of the American people at the Republican majority in the house.
your joking right?
ahahahaha
Obama wrath toward wall st... http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/contrib.php?cid=N00009638
We don't care about your 'Facts'. Focus on Wall St. They are bad rich people.
Can't tell if serious...
lulz
Sometimes, so hard to tell.

We need to occupy washington instead of wall street.. fiscal policy has obviously failed...
Wall St. is where the real power is. Let's make them feel a little heat. After Winter there is always Spring. The issues aren't going to go away by then, unfortunately. Will we?
That's where the root of the problem is for sure. Unchecked greed from elected servants has led to the unchecked greed of bankers and corporations, and that has led to purchased politics. We must elimate the greed of power and money in Washington.

We must take away the power to create money away from the people who create nothing in society
So let me get this straight. The politicians were the greedy ones first, and then the bankers--you know, the guys who spend their lives amassing money, and the guys who Jesus threw out of the temple--just happened to come along for the ride later? LOL...
No, not what I'm saying. Generations of Americans have ignored or not understood policies and laws put into place. The greedy saw this, and took advantage. They then in turn enacted laws favorable to theirs' and their friends' greed. Americans left it unchecked for too long.
