Ten Ways the Occupy Movement Changes Everything

No, I'm not.

These guys are a bunch of losers. If they made smarter decisions in their day-to-day lives, they could benefit from the establishment they're protesting instead of crying about what they don't have.

Some people are meant to suffer. They make decisions that lead them down a path of hardship. They end up sitting on a cold ass street for a month, accomplishing nothing and doing nothing to improve their own lives.

Some people are natural winners. They adapt to the game, no matter what the rules may be. They find a way to prosper regardless of the circumstances. They work hard and enjoy their lives, watching from the comfort of home as the clueless draw signs and contract fungal infections.

And some people fail to grasp the meaning behind a movement beyond what the media spins it to be. They sit, from the comfort of their homes, and pass judgement over something that is still growing and developing. They like to say things like "Well, if they made better decisions" or "Look at me, I'm just fine" without grasping that there are people just like them in the movement and that those "right decisions" weren't even an option for many of them.

There's nobody like me in that gaggle of hoodlums. Guaranteed.

And some people are still holding on to Victorian-Edwardian era Social Darwinism because being a Sociopath gives them a throbbing one and the idea of an equitable society scares them.

Look at this whiny, entitled, hippie rapist

And daddy knows best. This is also why news helicopters weren't allowed in the air space, because the occupiers would shoot them down with their shoulder mounted dirt-rape cannons.

How is it when someone says get of your ass and work it makes them a republician? Face facts people we all want change we all want to get out of struggeling to make a living we all want to live in relative peace and security. The way of doing this is going to be different for everyone because we all think our way is the best no one is openingthemselves up for compromise. So we will be left with a stale mate.

Who here is in favor of a flate tax? Who is against it? Why?

Personally I'm in favor because everyone will pay their fair share. I know my taxes will go up some but I'm willing to make that sacrifice as long as everyone in America is doing it. Why is this wrong?

I know that this will cause a shift in the job bases for accountants but after talking to a few guys who are accountants they would love to not have to fool with taxes.

Apparently you haven't been paying attention to the interviews that take place during those protests. Half the people out there have no idea what the **** the other people are out there for.

Corporations bad. 99%. We want more stuff, etc.

Very few had anything meaningful to say, along the lines of transparency in the government, wanting to see large scale corporations take responsibility for outsourcing, and their actions overseas, or anything otherwise socially responsible.

It's entitlement at it's worst. Spend some time in a 3rd world country gathering rainwater, or filling up your bath tub with water when the government decides to shut it down for "conservation", douches, then we can talk hardships.
