Two examples how stupidly dumb these filthy 99%'s are:
30K in student loans and $30K in credit card debt for a BA in Theatre?
This retard is lucky he landed a Starbucks job.
10 years in school going for a BA in Psychology and Sociology...And wait....It gets better....
...he's only a junior
Well this certainly sums up the idiotic mentality of the left!
10 years in school and still a junior? I guess he thinks his education should be paid for by someone else....and his 'American dream' should be as well.
It's so horrible when our stupid decisions affect our lives...isn't it? I'm about to get out of Grad School with $25 k in loans....maybe I should take a picture and hope someone forgives my loans.
Spoken like an intelligent person - something sorely lacking from the majority of the left.
No one usually chooses to be addict, it takes over. In many cases a person was once responsible with a future but addiction took it away and they now live a life of addiction. Talk to somebody who is addicted and many times you will hear from them "I once had_____, but now..."
You choose to be an addict the first time you smoke, snort, shoot or ingest an addictive substance.
As I look at the yahoo photos of the protesters I realize that I am sympathetic to them just like I am to tea party protesters but I can't endorse either one totally because both sets of protesters choose one side and vilify the other.
The tea party places sole blame on government and refuses to acknowledge that capitalism isn't perfect and corporation greed along with politicians are part of the problem.
The wallstreet protesters are placing sole blame on business and banks, and leaving out protest of government specially the democratic party because they won't admit that their party is part of the problem also.
Maybe the day will come when both realize that their sides have positive attributes but also corruption also. In the meantime nothing will really change until then
I don't understand what the protests are able to accomplish. Standing in the street with a sign in your hand doesn't take a nickle out of the elite's pockets. They are probably laughing. The time and place to effectively protest is at the voting booth in November 2013. Vote out ALL incumbents. Every one of them.
I am proudly one of the 1%! I will take care of myself and be responsible for my actions and decisions.
Some of these 99%'ers decided to make a career out of going to college - on loans - and thought they could live out their days spewing academia while sipping coffee at starbucks. Now the economy has turned for the worse, loans are due, and it is tough finding a job....especially when you have never worked. I guess reality has set in and now those whom made the bad choices want to blame those whom made better choices.
Typical leftie mentality of everyone else is responsible for my bad lot in life.
Again, I am the 1%.
