    Can anyone explain this (IMO) bullshit to me? I understand the goals, and I understand the actions, but A + /b/ != C. Causing a run on the banks... that will only result in another bailout, and that's what you're mad about, right? And if it doesn't you'll only end up supporting your grandparents, as their savings are only insured up to $100,000, which isn't much to live on.

    If a single person can coherently explain how these actions are positive other than in the way the make you feel, I'll do fucking anything. I need to understand this, because liberals uniting under a single cause, father than just fighting for themselves and others like them, is something I've been waiting for my entire life. I'm only 24, but I was born on welfare with a father addicted to heroin, and I now support myself, and live on my own..

    Yes, I'm a white male, and all that has mean't in my life is that no one has ever fought for me - even though I'm pro choice, which means I'm fighting to give up my rights, to give unilateral control of reproduction to another.

    Outsourcing is your fault for buying the cheaper version of whatever you wanted to get. Supply and demand, it goes both ways. You, as a consumer, defined the market... they followed your habits, your want for cheaper goods. Don't fight against your own choice.

Companies would rather hire people who have no clue what they are doing at cheap cost. Then hire some one with experience.

    Occupy SC has their funds stored safely in WelsFargo, the bank they are marching on. It's easier to access it that way. Too big to fail is dependent. Car companies should have gone bust (go, Ford, go!), banks should not have. The new $5 fee if the fault of users for not being proactive, and they could easily get an ATM only card, and avert the fees. Dislike of cash? Get a credit card and don't spend money you don't have, no fees, or at least smaller fees, and avoid spending money you don't have! That way you get interest on your cash before the end of the month.

    Government institutions like Freddie Mac and Fannie May caused the economic collapse, also idiots who couldn't afford houses and knew it, Wall Street then made a profit off the situation, which is what they do, then things collapsed and Government instead of letting the market correct itself, simply gave all the offending parties money.

    Excuse me?

    You have no rights to what is growing a in woman's body as it stands, you give up that right when you impregnate her. So I don't understand how you say you're giving up something (which I feel is inconsequential even if you were truly giving up something)


    That aside the occupy movement has no plan, they're just spouting ineffective rhetoric at people who only pretend to care (politicians).

    Not even close. I was stating a fact of how the American legal system works.

    Be male:
    *You can not force a woman to abort
    *You are not released from responsibility if she refuses to abort
    *You are not entitled to the child
    *You are at strong disadvantage for custody disputes
    *You will pay child support which increases as your income increases for at least 18 years
    **Your child probably won't even see the money, as mothers spending it on themselves is extremely common

    It takes two to tango? A man does not impregnate a woman, they get pregnant as a couple, it in neither person's fault, you dumb cunt. If a woman can choose to get an abortion, a man should be able to get a legal abortion - being treated as an anonymous sperm donor. She should have no right to the next 18 years of his life.

    Yep, and women keep bitching for more... feminism means equal rights, opportunities, and responsibilities... there are vastly more male feminisms than female feminisms, and most female "feminists" are actually misandrists. But it's okay, women are 88% more likely to severely injure their spouse than men are, so clearly men are as fault.

    I would cite every statistic you've ever read that says otherwise, just read the study, they're only quoting half of it.

    ITT: People blame the government for regulations and not the corporations.

    Do you blame the parents for spanking the child? Or do you blame the child for writing on the wall. The reason regulations exist is because enough people complain about actions that corporartions or other entities take. For example, pollution. If the businesses kept their pollution levels down on their own, there wouldn't be a need for the EPA. If businesses listened and conferences with their employees and made the work place a nice place to work, we wouldn't need government protected collective bargaining or unions. ETC

    If the kid wouldn't of drawn on the wall, he wouldn't of gotten spanked and be wasting time cleaning the wall off.

    I hope you people understand just how wrong you are. If OWS is sustained, it would have a huge impact on American politics.

    I'll give you a little example. Earlier this summer, the Keystone XL Pipeline was all but slated for approval. What is the Keystone Pipeline? It would take tar shales from Alberta, transport them across several thousand acres of farmland, before reaching refineries in Texas. Besides basically asking for a spill, it would release enough carbon into the atmosphere to kick climate change into overdrive. Around a thousand protesters were arrested in acts of civil disobedience and still nobody covered the story except for, like Democracy Now and Keith Olbermann. It looked like another case of oil trumping the voice of protesters.

    Then OWS broke out. Last week, 10,000 protesters surrounded the White House. And finally things are starting to move: an investigation revealed that the main lobbyist for the Keystone Pipeline had close ties to Hilary Clinton, and the rosy jobs predictions were a total lie. It looks like the decision is up in the air.

    tl;dr - OWS matters,
