And what demands they are, I tell ya! $20/hr minimum wage, free college, erase all debt, and so on. I suppose such demands can be considered reasonable.....by freaking morons.

Since you are way off on your assessment of public's opinion of Obama, perhaps we should take your "guarantee", with a grain of salt.

Advice to the youthful protestors: Don't be a "useful idiot".
Only "useful idiots" would champion enslaving people via compulsory labor for the benefit of another, and call it "Freedom".

Fish in the socialist fishbowl may congregate to the left or right side of the fishbowl, but they're still stuck in the socialist fishbowl.

Remember, slavery and thievery are the two characteristics of socialism / communism / collectivism.
[] compulsory labor for the benefit of another; and
[] expropriation of property for the benefit of another.
If you don't mind being a slave of the State, that's your choice - do not presume to impose it on the masses.

Social Justice?
I prefer inalienable rights to life, natural and personal liberty, and the absolute ownership of my private property - - - which are not guaranteed but put at risk by "social justice".
Because whenever you demand a government "give" you something, it must take it from someone else.
"Free" education, housing, transportation or anything else means someone is compelled to labor ... It means someone is dispossessed for the benefit of another. Whether that is part-time or full-time, slavery is still slavery. And slavery is not a viable solution for the ills of mankind.

Not sure if I would count OWS as a riot yet, though I hear that the Italian version in Rome got pretty nasty today.

You really do think people are stupid, and that explains why your "cause" is dying.

Besides the fact that these morons did a great job shutting down the stock market on Saturday! (they are closed on Saturday)

Reminds me of the mouse that roared.
