The protestors are representing the 99% that are not part of the 1%. The 1% control the politics and wealth in the U.S.
Like it or not if you are not part of 1% you are the 99%. We are in this together. My guess is that everyone who is posting on this board is part of the 99%.
I'm in the 99% and these protestors do NOT represent me. I am not a useful idiot for the Marxists. These folks should be petitioning their elected representatives who are corrupted, bought and sold by those they protest. Corporations have a duty to their stockholders, not to the protestors. Elected representatives have a duty to the US Constitution. Bank and corporate bailouts were not/are not Constituitional.

Ron Paul 2012!
I have read that there are Ron Paul supporters among the protestors. Good for them. They have a lot of things in common. Not about Marxism. Sorry. That is a fail.

Exactly what does Ron Paul have in common with international anarchists and Socialists? You do know what Ron Paul said about uninsured people don't you?
99% is just a very artificial group of people who have nothing in common.

Yes, there are some there and IMO they are misguided in their efforts. They have the wrong target. If you don't think class warfare and taking down the "evil Wallstreet" is about Marxism then pray tell what?
But it is time to revolt against the plutocracy. That begins with protests. There will be unification of left and right on this because it is time to take the corporate mongrels down.

Half of that 99% think they are one lottery ticket away from joining the millionaires club.

Ron Paul supporters are far and away the only group of Republicans left who still have a clue. They are against American imperialism as much as they are against the giant rip off of taxpayers by banksters.
But, as your quoted post indicates, not all Paul supporters have a clue

Ron Paul is against control of the Fed by private banks, getting out of the ME.
This is common theme among the people protesting. I don't know about anarchists and socialists, maybe you should start another thread and ask that question.

Ok, let's have it. If you got everything you wanted, what - specifically - would that be? Do you have any real goals with this "rich vs. poor" nonsense, or are you just venting your envy?
Show us what you've got. Break down exactly what you'd like to see happen, and justify each step.

Who said that anyone wanted to "take down" wall street? This is a protest and not a take down of wall street. I am sure the protestors that are supporters of Ron Paul believe that you are misguided. I agree with them.
