That's the best you can do?

2. ( sometimes initial capital letter ) the philosophy, principles, or methods of fascism.

3. ( initial capital letter ) a fascist movement, especially the one established by Mussolini in Italy 1922–43.

All of you who are actually in the 99% and do support the movement need to get a job.

When I say that socialism is for the people, not the socialists, here's what I mean....

When a politician passes a healthcare bill for the "people" which exempts them, they're the socialist.

When a wealthy politician or celebrity states that the "rich" should pay higher taxes but refuse to write a check themselves, they're the socialist.

When a white person complains that there should be more "people of color" at their company, but they refuse to step down and give the "person of color" their position, they are essentially saying "you step down", they are a socialist.
They are waking up! That's what the protests are about.

Wow. Will the liberals ever get over Bush? Reality check- Obama is in the White House. The patriot act is still in place, we are killing US citizens by presidential fiat, we have leftist indoctrination songs in elementary schools, an additional war, voter fraud, and a presidentail "enemies list".

I guess they need to update thier "You tube" site and look at Obama.

There already are - state universities. For example, UW in Madison, WI and UIUC in Champaign/Urbana, IL. Even though they are publicly funded, they still cost about $25k per year for their respective state residents to attend.

Maybe the 99% and the Tea Party can drop their cable news talking points for a minute and realize that despite their differences they can both agree that Congress is broken. It would be an impressive show of unity to have them both rally and force politicians on both sides to actually do something other than focus on re-election.

If that doesn't work then we can always go back to hating each other tomorrow.

No thanks. It seems like you already have.... I'll leave it for you and your friends.

I personally have no interest in being any part of it. I'll keep flying over it though... I'll keep an eye out for you.

Get a life...most of us do not care to be mooches, beg or demand others for their hard work. Most of us aspire to be in the top 1% of earning, and don't believe by crying about and having a temper tantrum is teh way to go about it...it is about hard work, sacrifice, and making tough choice....I would fight against these moochers from taking money form anyone...
