The Occupy Wall Street ass clowns???
That's funny... the US Govt hasn't been ripping off the middle (and retiring) class for years by devaluing the US Dollar and bailing-out investment banks (with public tax dollars) that should have been allowed to go belly up in the first place.
Naaaaaa...
There's nothing wrong with THAT picture at all, right?
Get real.
Open those gaudy curtains, raise that window allow a little fresh air and light into your life.
Oh lawd...here we go. Exactly, these people (who need a fucking shower, rehab and a job) need to be protesting at the white house and the federal reserve. Not wall street and not trying to push a FTT that does nothing to the banks...the everyday investor, pension's, mutual fund holders pay that tax. Not to mention the destruction of liquidity and 10,000s+ jobs.
You want to get mad about the mortgage meltdown...go back to 1999 with slintin and barney frank who demanded the laxing of lending requirements to help the poor....well it blew up big time!!
So, when someone is protesting something they have no fucking clue about...they are ass clowns.
Not to hi-jack this thread, but quite frankly . . . I'm surprised that the American public has been so sanguine about what they've watched their Country go through over the last decade.
It's as if everyone has become "dumbed-down" or "drugged".
Congress doesn't represent the People, and it hasn't done so for quite some time! It only represents the Fat Cats in the Banking, Defense, Drug, and Oil sectors of our Economy . . . and more often than not, the REGULATORS have been in "bed" with the industry that they are suppose to be regulating.
Think that the American people had a chance when that huge entitlement to the drug industry ($549 Billion over 10 years)called the Medicare Prescription Drug Bill was shoved down their throats by that corrupt moron Billy Tauzin of Louisiana?
You remember that Bill don't you?
It smelled so bad that it wasn't put to vote in the House until 3AM so no one would be watching on CSPAN. Even then, the vote was left "open" for hours as the GOP scrambled to convert several members who were "nay". At 5:50am, the Bill passed 220-215.
What a crock.
Oh wait . . . and six months after Tauzin retired from Congress he became the President and CEO of PhRMA, a powerful lobbying group for the Drug industry.
I don't care if you think that some of these people are "misguided" about what they appear to be protesting. I'm glad that someone FINALLY has gotten pissed-off enough to make some NOISE!
And just an FYI:
I was in college back when Volcker raised interest rates to 22% and the Farmers showed up at the Federal Reserve building in Washington, circling the building with their tractors.
not to defend the protesters but is someone who keeps repeating discredited memes, like barney frank caused the housing crisis,also an assclown?

We find little evidence that either the CRA or the GSE goals played a significant role in the subprime crisis. Our lender tests indicate that areas disproportionately served by lenders covered by the CRA experienced lower delinquency rates and less risky lending. Similarly, the threshold tests show no evidence that either program had a significantly negative effect on outcomes.
