>>360648474

Typical liberal stunt...
Take words out of context to make is sound completely different

>>360648605
1% - money + average jobs = 99%

And this explains corporations use of bailout money
to throw massive parties how?

BTW if we are an open 'open market' why do we even
have bailouts for companies

>>360648812

You're fucking dumb.... 1% - money = no money for 99% to spend... READ THE FUCKING THREAD/IMAGE

I'm really happy to have seen that. Although I am sure the message will be wholly ignored, if not outright blindly mocked.

>Technically 99%er here.

>>360648966

No, you're fucking dumb. So some candy-assgot with a BS in Finance is gonna do his own lawnwork and take over my child's little league team? Oh no, he's not gonna tip anymore. Wow.

>>360648966
Their money isn't my money.

The thing I don't understand about these protests is how these people can stay there for so long without getting fired.

You are outnumbered candy-assgot - we are going to kill you, rape your daughters, burn your house down and dance like drunk fucking monkeys in the street. If you keep pushing the middle class to poverty we push back - simple as that. Things won't be magically fixed by your blood, maybe we'll be worse off afterwards, but at least we'll feel better knowing that you aren't making 500,000 dollars a year while we can't afford to take our kids to the doctor or keep our family's home.

>>360648605
Typical conservative stunt...
Get mad when you sound like a 'tard' yourself.

>>360648966

When did the OWS movement become abolish wall street anyway?

1) Lose job on Wall Street

2) Use BS in Finance to get job as a 3rd grade teacher starting at 80k/year

3) Spend summers hitting ground balls to earn another 5k

4) Use all that extra free time, because being a teacher is like, what, 4-5 hours a day of work, to do landscaping, plumbing, painting, etc.

Good plan, buddy!

MY MONEY IS YOUR MONEY

You guys are so ignorant to the fact that when the 1% spends money (which we like to quite a bit) it trickles down to you candy-assgots. When I used to go out to eat I would, no matter what, leave a 30% tip. If the meal was 5$, shit I would leave a 10$ bill sometimes for shits and giggles. When my parents bought me my first car, they bought me a land Rover sport. a 95k car. why? because they could. The car salesman made commission off of that, the people in the Land Rover plant got paid to make another car to replace the one I bought, the car dealership stayed in business to keep selling cars... EVERYTHING COMES FROM US. If we dont have money to spend frivolously then you want have money to survive

TL:DR let me sum up
>got money, I'll do anything for you
>got money, just tell me what you want me to
>got money, lets go dancing on the backs of the bruised
>got money, he's not one to choose
No you can't take it
>NO you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
>No you can't TAKE it
No you can't Take it.
>No you can't take that away from me

hey op, you are a flaming candy-assgot, listen to what you type

parents parent my my my parents parents parents trust fund trust fund

you didnt do shit, you didnt earn shit, your fucking parents are going to coast you through life off their hardwork, not yours

eat a fucking dick and choke on it bitch.

>>360648277
>keep bitching about us taking your money
implies he is a billionaire

Hmm, more bullshit propaganda. I wonder who is paying you to post this crap.

>>360649626

So that means that when the 1% goes out of jobs, all the money suddenly disappears?

>>360649626

Trickle down economics works in the sense that it keeps all the wealth right at the top, which is exactly where the people who invented trickle down economics wanted it.

Try again candy-assgot

>>360649686

No shit we dont want you to TAKE our money, we will gladly spend it on things you benefit from. like buying a huge fucking TV and letting you keep your job a walmart.

Would you like it if I took your money? no. I dont care how much money you make NO ONE wants it to be taken from them for no good reason...

The problem is that there's a bunch of bullshit floating around just to make the money. Selling off things they knew were piles of shit, but told investors were perfectly fine, and making money off of it is crap.

I don't give a shit about the whole 99% argument, whatever it may be, but committing fraud to make a buck is dirty.

And no...wall street investors aren't going to stop buying expensive cars and they aren't going to one day decide to start landscaping their yards. Whoever made that up is an idiot. That will not happen, hell it won't happen for the average person who can afford a luxury car or a well landscaped yard because their time is better spent earning money than it would be raking leaves.

And people with money aren't going to start cramming it into smart cars or taking a bicycle to work.

Give me a break.

Never said I was a billionaire, or millionaire... Just stating facts Faggot... I cant believe how ignorant people are... I love /b/ have been here for long enough to know how it works, but when it comes to this, it just makes me so mad to see how ignorant people can be. You guys are blinded by ignorance, I was raised by 1%er's and I see the economy the way everyone should... but ignorant Niggers who want wellfare and want to live and get paid to live are fucking it all up

Yes, yes OP. We all know the 'occupy' movement is full of candy-assgots. They're getting the crackdown in lots of countries now, or they're growing bored with their teenage views and packing up on their own. They're retards, yes, but as we all know, they're also not ambitious.

Hello top 1%ers!

Anyone with above average IQ could make a lot of money if all he wants is to make a lot of money. You're not special. You're just fucked up enough to go for it no matter what.

Your style of sense and logic is not welcome here op! For the sake of the /b/tards fragile little minds, please abandon your mission and leave!

Troll or stupid. the OP sucks.

my grandparents are in the 1%. even they have lost hundreds of thousands thanks to the recession and are still being taxed to hell. liberal candy-asss need to be grateful they have what they do and actually work toward getting more. socialism is a fairy tale where everyone should have the same things - you have to earn it

>I'm part of the 1%
>top 1% earns over $2.5 million/year
>1%'er EVER posting on /b/

Yeah, I call bullshit

an even greater point that this guy refuses to mention is what the rich REALLY do with their money - they invest it. they put it into stocks and bonds which act as liquid cash to growing businesses, that then expand and hire. the rich are the driving force in this country's economy. everyone who says the rich dont need tax cuts is a moron that cant see beyond the surface - of course a rich guy isnt going to use extra money from tax cuts to buy more shit he doesnt need. if a guy has a yacht and a fancy house and all his car and kid's colleges are paid off, what do you think he is going to do? he is going to invest it, make more money on that investment, like the smart man that he is, using the brain that got him rich to begin with. and the biggest gains from that investment goes to who? businesses that expand, and hire more poorfucks who sit around and complain the rich dont do enough. stfu poorfuck.

hey retard, your parents got those shit jobs because they have degrees that show they are qualified as workers, unlike the young generation X, whos jobs are being taken by their overqualified parents
also, NONE OF YOU FUCKING RETARDS ARE THE 1%, THE 1% ARE BILLIONAIRES YOU FUCKING RETARDS

>>360648277
right... because there are soooo many ppl who lost their jobs on wall street, now the job market is flooded with stock brokers. whatever will we do

>>360648277
nope

OP is exactly right, this is how professionals act, i.e., like professionals. They work hard, they don't rely on silly demands like unions, whatever they're doing they do 100%, so yeah if it's more efficient to do their own yardwork they will. If they lose their high-paying jobs, they will take the jobs of the OWS idiots and do them better. Will they force all the middle class out of work? No, but proportionately more 99%ers are going to be out of work than 1%ers. The more the protestors accomplish in screwing over the rich, the more the rich are going to make decent livings.
You can't make the weak stronger by making the strong weaker.

>>360648277
OP speaks the truth, i come from a family that made its money by trading stocks in developing nations, my grandpa and dad are smart and hard workers, they can work all night if they need to so if they stop making money in the equity and bond markets, they will take other jobs and they're ruthless fuckers when it comes to making money.

398k? Is that even top 10%?

This is the cycle history goes through over and over.

Eventually "the haves" will literally have everything, and "the have nots" will literally have nothing, and a breaking point is reached where the system either collapses, or its so weak it becomes prone to outside forces and that causes it to collapse.

Unless we evolve to truly better ourselves as a species this will keep happening over and over.

it may be stupid or just blatantly out there, but you do know why obama is doing this right? by doing this he is solidifying his position in the upcoming elections. so what if the 1% wont vote for him? the other 99% will.

He dosen't give a fuck about any of you, only that he keeps his place for the next couple years. He KNOWS that he's fucking up the economics of the country, every other country is like that too. EVERY SINGLE FUCKING COUNTRY has a 1% and a 99%. Because that's just how it works. If you mess up the system, 1 of 2 things will happen; either the country devolves into a giant mess, or the equilibrium will reestablish itself again over a period, in which economic growth will just stop.

ill give you that, but social stratification is widening, the rich are getting richer while the poor are getting poorer. The number of millionaires in america reached 10 million soon after the recession happened.

the rich profit from recessions.

but let this go on, eventually a large percentage of americans wont be able to buy basic necessities and thats when the rioting will begin, and youl be lucky to not find your parents heads on sticks

also inflation is getting worse because of quantitative easing because of bailouts, and that only really effects the poor because they are the ones who wont be able to buy things they need to live.

Also, it shows growth in all sections - meaning the poor is not getting less - they are getting less growth, which makes perfect fucking sense with technological advances. They push buttons.

It's not average Joe doing jack shit.

One night. It only takes one night for a system to break. The sun will set on a quiet day and dawn will see bodies hanging upside from the power-lines. When it happens, it happens fast. It happens everywhere at the same time. It only takes one night to divide your life in two halves... before it happend, and after it happened. And no one every believes it will happen - not even when they are staring down at a puddle of their own blood and the world fades to black. No believes it will ever happen. It could never happen...

could it?

>Taken literally, the top 1 percent of American households had a minimum income of $516,633 in 2010 — a figure that includes wages, government transfers and money from capital gains, dividends and other investment income.

>That number is down from peak of $646,195 in 2007, before the economic crisis hit, all adjusted to 2011 dollars, according to calculations by the Tax Policy Center. By contrast, the bottom 60 percent earned a maximum of $59,154 in 2010, the bottom 40 percent earned a max of $33,870, while the bottom 20 percent earned just $16,961 at maximum. As Annie Lowrey points out, that gap has grown wider over time: “The top 1 percent of households took a bigger share of overall income in 2007 than they did at any time since 1928.” (And in New York City, it’s even more skewed: the top 1 percent have an average of $3.7 million in income

What's funny is that most stock brokers and people working on the floor (like this idiot with the paper) is ALSO part of the 99% lol

I'd call the OP a troll, but he was too dumb to realize how stupid he looked to have meant it to be intentional.

ATTENTION PROTESTERS

If you can bring the protest back to what it originally was, protesting against corporate influence over government and bank bailouts, then we will join you. If you continue this redistribution of wealth socialist bullshit then you will continue to be ridiculed. The choice is yours.

> we are going to kill you, rape your daughters, burn your house down and dance like drunk fucking monkeys in the street.

You dumb cunts do that shit already. I used to work as a system administrator & network engineer. A few years ago after losing that job because there's jack shit for IT work in this area, I went to work at a call center to make ends meet. And I'd hear the constant stories from dumb fucks like yourself, moaning about being warned by their supervisor that they'd get fired if they had another no-call no-show day. Laughing it up about how fucking wasted they got last weekend, or this excellent bud that they just scored, how late they were out after the game on Tuesday, etc. Then freaking out about how they don't know how they're going to make their rent and loan payment on their sweet ass truck because we they've already burned through a paycheck and it's 2 more weeks until the next.

Meanwhile I actually bother to show up for my work, be very good at my job, get paid, put money in the bank, carefully manage my investments. And just shake my head when they ask how I could afford to pay cash up front when I needed a really nice used car to replace my old junker when it finally broke down.

Fuck you entitled sons-a-bitches

The top 2% control 40% of the wealth. That's far off from an ideal distribution under capitalism. Seriously, you can't expect people who went to college to work shitty fast food jobs all their life because the economy is trashed or because their job was outsourced. No one is asking for 300k a year, we all just want a chance to be well off and be middle class.

>>360653842

Thanks for contributing from another country.
When you try to screw over "the wealthy" and businesses, you taking money out of the hands of employers, and thus out of payroll. This hurts workers, because there is less money to pay them.
The rich and poor classs in the US are unstable, in that more people move out of each of these classes than stay in them over any given time period. There are new rich and new poor all the time, and there are actually significantly fewer billionaires in the US than there were 5 years ago.

this is all so fucking stupid, just like all the threads on /pol/

In every debate I've watched, Ron Paul looks like a scared old man up on the stage. He comes off as agitated and trips over his words. The man has no class, I don't know what makes him so attractive to weirdos and flunkies...

>>360653842
>Could you be any more retarded? As the wealth has been concentrated, the labour market has become much tighter. When there was a corner store on every street, more people were employed.
First, correlation =/= causation.

Second, how does the top 1% getting less money put more shops on the streets?

Third, more people were employed? More like there was less unemployment. There's a difference there. Unemployed people are people without jobs who are also looking for jobs. In the past, women did not work. Now, women are expected to work. This greatly increases labour supply. The labour market is tight because of minimum wages and increased labour supply in combination with a recession.

>>360654702

He's the only one telling the truth. That's why people like him.

Millions and Millions of the masses have become veterans of combat thanks to the 1%'ers using them to invade oil rich countries. Millions more are former law enforcement or security, etc. We all use to make a good living when there was a middle class. Now we are being faced with a choice
>The former middle class can except it and learn to have a lower standard of living. (Some are okay with this.)
Or
>The former middle class is faced with a falling standard of living and decides that they are not okay with it.
Which do you really think is going to happen? I'm not asking which is a the more logical path, or which is a better idea, or which is fair. I am asking - what do you really think people are going to do when they know how to fight and kill, are put in a corner with their backs to the wall, and have families to provide for. What do you really think is going to happen?

400k aint shit. that doesn't make you 1% that makes you like 40%ish. the point is, that if the 1% were sharing, that 400k they were making would have been 1.5 mil, and they'd still be making it, because the 1% wouldn't have laid them off to cut their own losses and keep making money when the rest of the country was dying.

Except if that graph didn't factor in inflation, it would be even less convincing.
Take, for example, your average Joe. Makes $50,000 a year let's say.
Now you've got your hedge fund manager. Pulls in an even 1 billion.
We'll call the inflation rate 50%

$50,000 x 1.5 = $75000
1,000,000 x 1.5 = 1,500,000

Of course your hedge fund manager is going to increase a lot more than your average Joe, that's basic math.

Except you're too retarded to know that I asked for a differentiation between real and nominal wages. I couldn't make a comment about inflation before that.

>oh yeah, and that inflation is caused by giving money to the people who caused the recession
No it's not. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. If you want to see a pseudo-inflation, distribute the wealth evenly. Then all the products that lower-class people buy would shoot up in price and pretty much do very little to help them.
>rich fuck people over, gov't gives rich people more money, extra money decreases value of all money, makes poor poorer
You're remarkably fucking stupid.

>>360654601
Part of the problem is too many people going to college. You were promised jobs based on your education. These jobs don't exist, and there never will exist enough level-appropriate jobs for all college graduates. The reason you paid so much for college is that so much of the student loan market is federally controlled. Virtually everybody who wants a loan for school can get it, thanks to the liberal "go to college" agenda. This eliminates competition for the schools in terms of pricing, which is why tuition inflation can outstrip national inflation by 5x.
tldr; too many students for too much money = McJobs

Babbys first troll

so riddle me this
how could they work stocks if the economy is so shit? No average person could make a profit from that. And i would like to know where you got that statistic. Because it seems bullshit. even the "easy as pie" jobs are hard to get with teenagers, college kids, AND adults who lost their jobs

To be honest, I have my passport and I am getting the fuck out of here for a few years till it becomes a little more clear how things are going to play out. If you think this is over-reacting, you don't know the angry that is out there. I can feel the air charging... 18-25 year old males are facing 50%+ unemployment... and that is just a simple fact you have to understand. IF things don't jump off - it will be the first time in human fucking history that they haven't under these circumstances. And we are the most entitled society that has ever existed so I am not thinking that is likely.

>>360655189
No he wouldn't do a better job than the other candidates, thats what i'm saying. Imagine that clumsy loser staring down putin or debating Merkel. Ron Paul is a man out of his league

You and your parents have always been poorcandy-asss op.

>Jobs neither of them should be doing, jobs the 99% should be doing.
Your elitism is showing, tantamount to
>I have more/make money than you, therefore I am better than you.

> you can't expect people who went to college to work shitty fast food jobs all their life because the economy is trashed or because their job was outsourced

Just "going to college" isn't a guarantee that you'll get a good job. You can go to West Bumfuck state, and spend 6 years getting your degree in hand crafting artisanal wagon wheels. They might be the damned finest wagon wheels seen on this side of the Pecos, but there's no demand for them aside from a very niche market that you and the rest of your artisan wheel making class are competing for. So you either work your dream job for less, or make yourself useful to society somehow. Your choice, just don't expect the world to prostrate itself at your feet because of your piece of sheepskin.

When America is growing at its average rate of 4% then the standard of living is estimated to double with every generation. We have not been growing at that rate because of a recession. We are crawling out of a recession and start to grow again because that is how an economy works. It doesn't stay good for 1000 straight. America has one of the highest standards of living in the world. Just bitching just because we go through a bad few years, instead fucking deal with it and work to improve the country so we get out of it quicker. Protesting the people that actually are smart, understand the economy, and whos skills are a necessary does not fix things.

i dunno what % i am.

i go to work 8 to 11 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week (my choice)

10% is $250,000, therefore 400k cannot be 40%. The percents are counting from richer to poorer. I'm sorry you didn't understand that, fucktard.

>>360654783
I agree with those factors you posit (even though they could just be co-relative than causative factors). However there is no evidence that shovelling money toward the rich, Reaganomics style, improves the economy or raises employment levels one iota. A more reasonable tax system, with less loopholes, would be better for the economy and thus improve the employment situation. Disproportionately benefitting the rich drones has all sorts of distorting effects on the economy, including asset bubbles, inflation, and general instability etc. For the long term wealth of the rich, a better distribution of wealth is necessary. Because even the rich suffer from downturns.

capitalism is good if the capitalists have skill and arent inbred retards

how hard is it to make good investments? even with all that printed money the govs are printing out

Your comment is both cliche` as it is misapplied. I did not say anything about me leading a charge, or picking up a gun and heading off to war. I am not some Repubo candy-asshat who's seen Red Dawn one too many times and plans on shouting WOLVERINES while getting my ass shot off by an Abrahms.

I made an observation - it is coming and it will be the defining moment for this country. Whether or not I become a statistic of that event, or how willingly I do so, has no baring on the statement.

>>360655686
All the republicans suck equally as much. The greens are first year in the presidential election. Look to other countries like japan. A 2 party system is retarded. Things are changing we know what we want its not about the corporations, Like paul wants, its about us.

if it was profitable to riot, wall streeters would be there rioting... but occupy wall street hippies are too stupid to realize that.

Several problems with your point OP, let me take a moment to lay them out:

1. You are the current scapegoats, because you GREEDY CUNTS caused the fucking problem. If some punk punches me in the face, I don't turn to another punk and blow his brains out, I shoot the sorry fuck that cocked me. Seems like common sense to me, I guess you banker candy-assgots, with your superior intellects, top notch education, etc., didnt learn common sense. Its ok, because soon you will learn, because YOU are going to be hanging by your fat, self-important necks from the nearest tree.

2. You are not going to be taking our jobs, because you simply do not have the ability to do so. Shuffling other peoples money around and sucking the life out of society does not qualify you to fly a plane, design a critical electrical circuit, build a house, or... pretty much anything of real value, but go ahead, give it a try, we will all be standing there watching you cock up any attempt at actually creating something useful.

>>360656112

If they started off rioting it would have failed immediately. The riots will come, but it will be because of police force. This is what I see in the near future and that's where shit's really going to start changing.

3. LOL at the 4 months vacation and retiring when you are 50... as opposed to retiring whenever you are done leeching your fill off society??? Funny thing about greed, you never seem to get enough. Most parasites in high finance could retire in their 30's or even late 20's... but they don't, because no matter how much blood they suck out of our country, it never seems to be enough; whereas with your typical union worker, he has to dedicate 30-40 years of his life just to be able to retire and live easy for a few years, on what you Wall Street parasites piss away on coffee and croissants in a month. Oh and I have 15 years of dedicated, loyal (you might wanna look that word up) service, and in 2 more years I get a whole 3 WEEKS of vacation a year.... WOOOOO and I am one of the lucky ones.

4. You blowing or not blowing your considerable expendable incomes on stupid shit has an impact on very very few of us 99%. Illegal aliens mow your lawn, and wash your stable of cars, because nobody else is willing to kiss your sorry asses for the pathetic chump change that you pay. Fuck your money. If I want your fucking money, I will walk up, put a bullet in your head, and take your shit. Again, fuck your bitch ass money.

5. Smart is questionable, vicious is certain, as well as ruthless, but what you don't have is toughness (try living in the mountains on cat food and bugs because you are broke and homeless) and NUMBERS. Thats what you dumbassed rich cunts always forget- there are MANY more of US than YOU. Overwhelming numbers. BASIC ARITHMETIC MOTHERFUCKER, CAN YOU LEARN IT???

She said, "Let them eat cake". Then she got her arrogant fucking HEAD cut off. You rich parasites are soon going to find yourselves in the same situation. You can only get away with fucking so many people over... once you reach critical mass, when practically EVERYBODY is getting fucked over, its ON motherfuckers!!!

That may be true, but it might balance out if we could get rid of all this outsourcing. That way factory and engineering jobs open up that don't need degrees, and the whole everyone go to college because it's near impossible to get a job without a degree these days would die down.

>>360655788
I don't see a problem here with the rich, though. The rich are already in a higher tax bracket and therefore pay a higher percent tax. America gets a shitload of tax money. The way it's spent is the problem. You're too afraid of "socialism", so you don't put that money towards road, healthcare, education, etc. but you're blowing money off in wars that probably make your country even less safe (acquiring enemies). Shit's tough now because of recession. I don't think this requires a change in the tax system and I really think that the top 1% bullshit is just a scapegoat, kind of like what OP said.

That's really out of context. People are flooding degrees such as architecture or biology because there are now lower level jobs(ie factory workers) available, so you pretty much need a degree. This whole notion that everyone without a job protesting wall street is someone with a degree in women's studies or some kind of art major is absolute bull shit and nothing but right wing rhetoric to keep their rich friends on top.

go to wiki and read about japan politics, Its very different than america, it appears that its always changing and growing and people can form partys when they are needed, america is a slave country.

Obama's failed administration is about as close as the commies are ever gonna get. Most of the country is made up of free market conservatives and if a civil war started up, I'd put my money on those types to know how to shoot, drive tanks and drop bombs.

The proletariat would get slaughtered.

>>360656984

No, it's not. Consciousness is rising and the planet is becoming a 4th density planet. This is the only reason this is happening and the end result is not war, trust me.

You know, I wrote off all of the critics of the occupy movement as defensive idiots, until I looked into the movement. It seems like a bunch of idiots who don't have a unified goal, and some are shitting on doorsteps, being belligerent (and sometimes violent) towards dissenters, and being a basic public health hazard. Are they college students who don't know what a loan is? Are they idiots who think standing outside wall street will accomplish a damn thing? Fuck if anyone knows... All I know that its a stupid cause with a lot of dipshits involved with it, like a the drunken mob that gets out after a baseball game and just follows the leader on what to do next.

wow whoever wrote that letter is a fuckin retard. He probably thinks that he actually makes a difference in the fiscal world, i can sense the ignorance. You corporate fuckers who think oh I just gonna take a shitty restaurant job or a HS teacher job just remember that when shit hits the ceiling its mainly your fault along with a little help from our gov't and you wont be able to find a job... because regular tax paying jobs wont exist, money will be completely useless and youll be sitting there to fend for yourself just like the rest of the population. I know people like you just cant stand to not love the smell of your own farts but karma will find you and you will find that your utter selfishness of profit over humanitarianism, or just pure ethics and empathy of your fellow brothers who share this earth with you, will shatter your miniscule life when you realize that no college degree, no amount of life savings or any of your useless possessions can put food in your child's mouth and your stuck there waiting for someone to do something for you, because you are incapable of surviving without your brothers.

You are not part of the 1%

You know what a burgerking is.

Shit like this increases the potential for things to turn violent; the 1% thing is a misnomer, but there are still many more poor/lower middle class people than their are super-rich, and money will only buy so much force/protection.

Anyways, with 50% of people paying no income tax, we're pretty close to them realizing that they can just vote to take shit from the rich without needing to worry about consequences (and nobody will worry about long-term consequences because if they did they'd be making enough to pay income taxes in the first place).

Class warfare is on the way, chaps. Get your popcorn ready, and invest in ammunition and a reliable shotgun.

>>360656855
I don't know about you, but I've had that impression from day 1 when I looked at the little twats protesting before the media was even willing to talk about it.
