I like Cain and here's why. Few months ago he was doing an interview and they asked him what he would do about this and that. He said hey I'm not an expert on everything, nobody is. What the CEO, or president in this case, does is put people in charge who are experts. That is the problem with Obama and his minions. They think they know everything. Nobody is an expert on everything. Plus Cain has some good pizza.
This is about as uneducated of a statement as I have ever seen. Wall St. engineered an entire economy based on artificial derivatives and credit.
They bought off the government, and had people like Brooksley Born who did stand up and try to protect the public silenced.
They are guilty of the biggest conspiracy to defraud the American public that has ever been perpetrated.
The world economy was brought to its knees as a result of what these bastards have done. Millions of people have lost everything they worked a lifetime to build.
Stop feeling as if you are somehow superior to those who have not been as lucky as you to be in position to pay your bills and debts. You could easily be in their position. None of us are immune from devastation in this economy.
The guilty need to be punished, and the government needs to be put back under the control of the people.
And those with debt need to claim THEIR responsibility in TAKING the credit cards and the mortgages and the student loans. When you sign on the dotted line, you don't have to be blind to the fine print. YOu can read it and know what's coming. Then you can say, no thank you before signing the contract! Once you sign the contract for a loan or credit, then YOU are responsible for that debt, period!
Look, I've been in the depths of poverty and I'm still working my way out of debt. But I don't need to blame anyone other than myself for my bad choices... and it's only me that will get me out of it. Just like no one is going to get these people out of the mess they are in, they have to do it for themselves or they will wallow in self pity and poverty forever. Or did you not read my entire post about how I was in their exact situation?? I'm not "one of the lucky ones", I am pulling myself out of debt by my own bootstraps with all the same debts and bills, and everything these people have. So I'm not superior to them... but I guess I'm more determined to be responsible for my own life than they are!
They call themselves the "99 percenters" - alluding to the supposed one percent of rich people who control the country.
But as Michelle Malkin points out to the Daily Caller, "When Occupy Wall Street activists call themselves the '99 percent,' it turns out they mean 99 percent non-diverse (by their own politically correct measurements)." Malkin notes that:
One thing you won't hear the MSM harp on the way they harped about the Tea Party: The overwhelmingly pale face of the "99 percent" movement. Just like their ideological elders in the liberal media, they are a lot more skilled at carping over lack of proportional representation among conservative institutions and the GOP than they are at demonstrating it in their own ranks.
Occupy Wall Streets organizers admit lack of diversity is a problem for them (http://weaselzippers.us/2011/10/05/“occupy-wall-street”-protesters-share-one-common-trait-almost-all-are-white-organizers-admit-lack-of-diversity-a-problem/ - broken link)
