Who's been raising tuitions each year to astronomical heights? And using taxpayer dollars to pay faculty big bucks with mucho perks and, if private, claiming tax-free status while living very large?

All those student loans that everyone is pissing about went into someone's pockets.

Whose, exactly?

We all know you're such courageous streetfighters, Occupiers. Too bad you haven't the nards to confront your professors with the evidence of their greed. Maybe your desire to emulate them trumps your outrage? Hmm?

Suckers...

You've got a lot of people to talk to, iggy. How about if you go away until you've interviewed them all?

They are protesting them, at least here in the Bay area. I guess you didn't hear about how those students got pepper sprayed at UC Davis.

They have.

You people need to pay attention more because you complain so much and push these points but are never right about them.

"We people" (aka the taxpayers) support these students and -- what's more to the point -- their spoiled professors and the college and administrators who ennable them, encourage them in their irresponsible dalliances with collectivism, and extort outlandish sums from their parents for the privilege of inculcating in them a sense of grievance and entitlement. And all so they can enjoy tenured nine-month jobs and three figure incomes. In return we get bupkis, aside from a generation of zonked-out whiners who are unable to make change, and who wear woolen stocking caps in July.

Pay attention to THAT...

We've heard about little else. Ad nauseum.

To summarize this momentous event: a fake cop sprayed a bunch of fake students. Talk about collective incompetence -- the mind boggles: he had no business in a uniform, they had no business hanging around a university and playing hooky -- both on the taxpayers' dime. From what I saw of the incident, there were more people taking cellphone videos than anything else. Not exactly the cossacks cutting down the bolsheviks in the snow in 1917...

Your obvious trolling and personal attacks show that you have no base and are scared.

This from someone who numbers one-sentence paragraphs.

Any time you'd like to address the issues, you know where I am. And you're VERY easy to spot in that Guy Fawkes mask.

Have any idea who he was?

Didn't think so. Look it up. You know, "do research".....
