More power to them! Time for a BIG change. I saw on the news tonight, we have a small group here in Asheville meeting.

The movememt seems to be growing like wildfire. What are they trying to accomplish?
 
Jobs, and to narrow the gap between the haves and have nots and the have nothings.

And it should!

The Banks, Wall Street, and the Government are the root cause of the financial situation and the decline of the American way of life....Jail um or Hang um, your choice...
 
I think its great! Our republic at work! I have seen my parents who are middle class, struggle to try and keep middle class status!

It's time for change is right!

Sure seems since 2008 everything has taken a turn for the worse. All I read is that major corporations profits are through the roof, but they continue to layoff ppl. I don't understand this. Seems they are trying to make everyone poor. No more middle class

On the other hand, what are the rich suppose to do, give all their money to the poor?

At least he accomplished something while in office. I'm down to 87 cents :)
 
Wall Street is constantly compared to Vegas. Reform is necessary.
 
Lets see, who is responsible for failed economic policy, failed banking over site, failed mortgagee regulations, failed loans to green companies, failure to reduce spending, increased unemployment etc ect...I think the group needs to use mapquest, get the address to a Big White House in Washington and meet there! (But Obama will be out on vacation, campaigning or playing golf).

Until the politicians that represent us actually live like us and deal with the same challenges, there can never be a true representation of the people. A fundamental change is needed and govt needs to remove its pensions, healthcare, and benefits for which the common US worker no longer receives either !

I've never heard this, but then again, I've never paid much attention to Wall Street or Vegas

How do you purpose we turn this situation around?
 
Glenn beck said they "will kill everybody" ...they will drag you out of your home, steal everything you have, and kill you. Cantor called them nothing more than a mob. These same people who loved the tea bagger rallies... now call these folks nothing more than a mob.

Fox news isn't giving these folks any credence because protesting again the rich and powerful is of course....immoral in their eyes.
 
I had seen this on the news, but I just heard today that a bunch of people at my college are going to be doing this during our homecoming parade Saturday morning.

If the politicians had to switch places with me, first thing they would seek would be a divorce lawyer. They would not be able to hang like me :)
