The pensions and retirements of those OWS people's parents/grandparents are invested in "Wall Street". The blame for the fascist economy and the oligarchy it has become belongs with the US Congress, POTUS, the US Treasury and with The FED.

Why don't the OWS'ers pay for them with the donations they receive?

This is their affair, not the NY taxpayer's.

Or do they want someone else to pick up that tab too.

Then why don't they take their "movement" and crap in Battery Park in front of City Hall?? Let Blumberg deal with it. These are people who LIVE in that area, these are their HOMES, who are being subjected to that filth.

I can't help wonder if the "organizers" have secretly signed a "Movie of the Week" deal.

How so?

If you are angry with Wall Street because the bailouts was them stealing from us, the got those bailouts from the US government.... so protest against our government.

If you think our current tax structure allows the wealthy to get wealthy on the backs of the poor, the people writing our tax laws, and giving tax loopholes to "millionaires and billionaires" .... then protest against our government.

Follow the money. Who controls the govt., why go after the puppet when you can get the puppet master.

The board voted to support the protestors, but wants to work with them on developing guidelines to make sure everyone's rights are respected. This is the NY Post--do you believe everything in the Star or the Enquirer too? The Post is owned by Rupert Murdock (of phone hacking, probably going to jail fame) who has a whole lot to lose if the message of taking big money out of elections gains any kind of footing. Just what do you think that will do to FOX? Do you think he's EVER going to say something positive?

The neighborhood needs to get together and save a few days worth of OWS byproduct. Then do-do unto others as they do-do unto you: toss it into their tents while they sleep. Let them roll in it. They won't notice it til they wake up; they already smell like %^$#.

I think the cops should clean up the people who are doing it, and lock their punk butts up where they can defecate on their cell floors, and have it cleaned with their faces.
