OWS protesters

Like pox said, no bailouts. Also, no poop tents in Obummerville either. Try working for a living. Seems like Phantom309 stepped up to bat instead of pooping in the tent.

Will agree with THAT but also believe that the EXISTING regulations should be more rigorously ENFORCED with increased MANDATORY prison terms for FRAUD and insider trading and with a CLEAR "understanding" that there will be NO MORE "bail outs" and the Federal Gov`t will "set fire' to those "golden cargo parachutes" with HUGE fines and penalties in case of FAILURE, leaving them to fall to a well deserved financial "death". Let`s make them EARN those multi million $$$$$$$$ "performance bonuses'...sound FAIR? Kinda like wanting to pilot a commercial jet airliner- if it "crashes' in the REAL WORLD the cockpit crew DOES NOT have ejection seats; they have to "ride it DOWN TOO, and generally DIE 1st..."vetting" at it`s finest. Imagine then the "protesters' will HAPPILY "go home"...

Just sitting here wondering what Martha S is thinking about Nancy P getting by with what she spent prison time for..DohDouble standard

you read that too Mr. Don? But, according to our laws, it is legal. Why? I haven't a clue. The Beoootch took advantage of the system.

Well Rusty, in quoting Mrs Pelosi, I guess "That's that"...

Got a plan for this or are you delusional?

One thing to remember...

The national media is basically a collection of huge, publicly traded corporations. They have a vested interest in making the OWS protesters look like idiots. Just saying.

The whole 'liberal media' thing is such a joke.

[Lowellhturner]

Cane Pole they get "performance bonuses'. In the REAL "blue collar work world" if your efforts COST your employer $$$$$$$$$$$+, you DO NOT get a "performance BONUS"- YOU GET FIRED !!! And if it`s due to ILLEGAL or immoral reasons you can be sent to PRISON. LEVEL the "playing field" my friend...Wearing a white collar (in my opinion) if anything should mean you are held MORE responsible, not LESS...and perhaps it`s just me, but I DO NOT believe in "rewarding' FAILURE ! Especially if it costs the American PUBLIC BILLIONS!

[Lowellhturner]

Personally, i would be flat out ASHAMED to TAKE it, but obviously it DOES NOT 'bother' most of them to do so...NO surprise there.

Be it OWS or Tea Party, I'm just excited to see someone other than the asses and elephants getting attention. We have a wasteful, greed-driven, extremely bifurcated political system in major need of overhaul, and the OWS'ers are doing their part to change things for what they feel is better. And financially speaking, I think the OWS'ers have a pretty good point on inequality. If the 1% doesn't trickle more down they're going to lose control to civil unrest and then we all lose. Instead, when we need them the most, they hole up and sit on enormous cash reserves because their money making machine is broken!

The OWS'ers want money for nothing, the Tea Party wants gov't for nothing, now if we could just find a balance somewhere between it all. But that can't happen, because those producing our mass media wouldn't be able to sensationalize and financially capitalize on such simplicity. And without entertaining media what would we do with our evenings and weekends!?!? Well, I know a few of us that could make do with a little fishin'...
