Man, usually if someone calls the one girl on an internet gaming forum fat / something mean, it spawns a ton of drama + white knights by the dozens jumping to her defense, etc


Thought I should have my popcorn ready =(

I'm totally sick of all of the 'occupy' bullshit. All it's done is draw attention away from things that are actually happen. People sitting around thinking they know what's best for everyone else on a national level is pathetic.

So just to be clear you are sick of people protesting against our government giving billions of dollars to banks who made some of the worst 'investment' decisions into complex and dangerous financial instruments that then backfired on them. You're sick of people protesting against banks being given even more money through quantitative easing which is one of the most dangerous actions the Fed (an establishment that should not exist to begin with) has taken to endanger the wealth of the middle/lower class in our nation.

Occupy protests are arguably incredibly pro-capitalism. They are against our government funding banks in order to prevent them from failing. The funds going to the banks aren't doing what is intended, which is to provide more jobs and lending to businesses. Corporations are sitting on massive piles of cash and the only reason they are beating earnings and improving profits right now is due to sitting on the cash and investing/making cutbacks in their businesses, aka laying off thousands of people.

The occupy protests are against policies undertaken by our government. Our government is not pro-free market or capitalist anymore. The Fed pumps money into the system to keep up the fiat ponzi that is making financial markets appear healthy. Instead of allowing corporations to fail as a result of poor decision making, which would happen in a legitimate capitalist system, they are propping them up. I have a job, I work ~50-60+ hours a week and I'm glad people are finally realizing that our government is trying to fuck us and doing these occupy protests. Feel fine disparaging what they're doing, but don't act surprised when the United States' credit is downgraded again before year end or in the first quarter of 2012. Don't act surprised when we enter into a period of hyper-inflation over the next 5-10 years as a result of government policies to print away debt and your 'wealth' is completely destroyed. If you thought the recession in 2008 was bad, or even ended, things are going to get much worse going forward.

Salty, if you went to the occupy protest and assisted in trying to get America back to its free market, capitalist roots, good job. I for one am not happy with the steps our government is taking either.
