Oh, it's perfectly clear now who's functionally retarded about the laws in America and the goings-on in our government.

Since you well versed in the laws in America and the goings-on in our government, please enlighten me as to why enacting change inside of the current system wouldn't work. (again from a laws and 'goings-on' perspective)

And it's the "conservative" jack-asses like you propagating the message of corporate media by bullying the common people that are derailing the movement.

So you are derailing the movement? Also, all I have asked for is details / plans / expectations, this enrages you as you have no details.

You don't owe them any kind of allegiance, but for some reason, you blindly follow them. You're clearly brainwashed, and you're a tool they're using to brainwash others. That's why you're so intent on posting your opinion here and refuse to relent until you have the last word.

I can guarantee that anything you post next is going to prove me right. Do it.

Just for clarity, who specifically is 'them' & 'they'. The government in general? The 1%? The ominous sounding 'corporate media'?

Your small brain can only conceive that someone must be 'brainwashed' if they don't see things the way you do. You show your own ignorance.

Again, everyone one of your posts floats around the periphery of facts and details but never addresses them. If you were able, you would post specifics. Believe it or not, 'the system is broken' is not a fact or detailed analysis.. that is your opinion. If you submit that the existing system is broken, then has it always been broken? Was it changed at one point or numerous points throughout history that led it now to it's current state of brokenness? Can you point to those things? Who changed it and what was the context around the change? If it was working at some point how is it now irreparable? etc, etc. You spout this shit off but have no understanding of the details or facts that might lead one to say 'the system is broken'. You see that you are not successful and think that it must be the systems fault and that is enough reasoning to call you to action. Indeed, I am the brainwashed & ignorant one.

Over the last 30 years or so the influence of money in politics has steadily increased. The recent Citizens United decision is the cherry on top of this trend. Over the same time period the middle class has been disappearing predominantly into the lower class. The result is that more and more money/political power is being concentrated in fewer and fewer people. As far as I can tell, it's this trend that the Occupy folks object to. The reason it's difficult to change this system from within is because pushing your agenda requires you have more money than those who are pushing back. This problem is compounded by the fact that the system reinforces itself as those with money use their power to skew the system in their favor.

Money can't fight anger.... there are 82 countries behind this general movement.... it's bigger than politics, it's the fucking human race.

Whether we figure out a way to work it like adults or with raised pitchforks, people are advocating for change.

Money can do damn near anything if there's enough of it.

tell that to the arab leaders of the world.


more just poking fun at the point.... what it comes down to is from the beginning of this I realized, 'wow i've been an apathetic piece of shit when it comes to voting for my future.... I should make sure other people get some knowledge in their domes as well." Money can't prevent that. If it does then existentially speaking we're fucked as a race.

I hear ya. Greed and corruption are a cancer in our political system. If they go unchecked then, rich or poor, we all lose.
