When are the Big Wall Street Banks going to start practicing capitalism again, instead of having their hand out to the federal government via no interest rate loans? They are getting better return on their money by snuggling up to Uncle Sam, rather than loaning it out to business's.

There are your freeloading cockroaches right there.

When are they going to get their Banker cronies out of DC so that they play the same game everyone else is supposed to play in the markets.


What a joke. These cockroach bankers would not know what capitalism is if hit them in the face.

Stay tuned, guy. OWS has created multiple movements who are now working inside the system. That's what came out of those demonstrations - networking.
You righties won't even know what hit you because you'll be in your cozy Fox bubble.

Heard all this BS before. Never had a bank hurt me because I've always taken care of business and KNEW WHAT I SIGNED AND WHAT I COULD AFFORD BEFORE PUTTING THE NAME ON THE DOTTED LINE.
Powerless? As powerless as they want to be when "being powerless" serves their purpose. Just like the useless Occupiers beating their drums and "mike" check like a bunch of magpies.
Yep, color me in the banks' corner when Occupiers are in the room....
So you needed a banker?? Why didn't you manage your financial affairs better?

Sit on the sidewalk, carry your little protest signs and a tin cup. Some banker might drop a coin in .....
Corporations are the biggest welfare queens - and at the same time, the biggest whiners about how they are mistreated.

Remember That $83 Billion Bank Subsidy? We Weren't Kidding - Bloomberg
Let me summarize so that you don't have to read.
The sequester has $85 billion in cuts to government services. The top ten banks get $83 billion in taxpayer welfare and this is just a small portion of total corporate welfare to others like Big Oil, Big Agra.
So banks must rely on taxpayer bailouts in order to stay in business - isn't that your brand of socialism?
Who is practicing the much-vaunted conservative "personal responsibility" here? Why can't these wealthy "capitalists" bootstrap themselves, like your media heroes demand of Joe Lunchbox?

Speaking of "freeloading cockroaches",....How 'Bout them Occupiers???

Got their hands out,...wanting more from the government,....guaranteed income regardless of whether they are working or not,....forgiveness of their college debt,...etc.,...etc.,...

Rather the bankers have it than the Occupiers,...at least the bankers are doing something.

Occupy is like that tree that fell in the forest without anyone around.

It may have made some noise,...but nobody heard it.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaa!!!!!

Spent thousands with many retail stores, furniture stores, grocery stores, restaurants, big box stores helping people either keep their jobs or allowing more to be hired.

Paid a ton of property taxes allowing state and local workers to maintain their postions in the state government and local school districts or hire more as needed.

Just "spreading the wealth" like you Occupiers insist is good for the economy.
So in another word, none. You created "0" jobs. Figures.

There is nothing wrong with the capitalism as practiced by a farmer bring his produce to market but there is something wrong with the capitalism as practiced by Corporate America.

I've created plenty of jobs in my lifetime, and probably have had more businesses than you or most of those in your generation. I now work part time and am a silent investor in a couple of business ventures. No, I don't know how many jobs I've created, but you can bet your last dollar if there are jobs created, it won't benefit your generation.

If you and your generation would spend less time on the internet and more time taking care of your "businesses" there would be likely be more job creation. Your generation would rather be 'connected' 24/7/365 than do an honest day's work, and unlike my generation we didn't have time to spend on the internet or smartphones wasting someone else's money.

I suppose the rest of us on this forum should be impressed with the "fact" that you own a business. You're nothing special,....millions have already done what you are doing. Quit fishing for recognition.
