Those numbers are insanely disturbing. We are up against some of the most powerful people in the entire world.

A lot of this is pushed by the Democratic Party and has been for years, look at LBJ in 1960's he used the Social Security Fund to pay welfare, because not many people were living long enough to use all that money that was just sitting there. Latter Barney Franks and Clinton admin use Janet to force banks to make risky loans, or be investigated by the Justice Department, this became the liar loans that later blew up, everybody deserves a house whether they can afforded it or not. Now the bill is coming due for all this liberalism and nobody wants to pay. There is no way out of this without a crash, it is going to happen and the politicans are running scared that they will be the ones hung from the lightpost like in England in the 1900's so why not blame the bankers and hope it happens to them.

Loving all the slander from corporate media and the mindless drones eating up their hammed slant.

99% is too broad a category, I count myself in with hard working overburdened taxpayers. Not the idle rich, not the trust fund liberals, not the Obama worshippers, not the welfare crowd.
Divide and conquer. You keep to your little group and when they're done mopping up the rest, you won't have anyone to stand with you.

Defecating on someone else's property is funny?

Typical Progressive.

He might get a position in the Obama administration to help get the message across.
