    huh? lol i just get sick and tired of people whining and crying about their situations instead of changing their situations..people need to realize in american you dont have the right to be happy...you have the right to pursue happiness

    By "church" I meant that I agreed. mrveggieman usually says "Church!" when he agrees so I figure he will get a kick out of me stealing it :)

    Call me crazy but I don't see the problem.

    1) If I owned a major corporation then I would go where the labor is cheapest. That isn't America. Why criticize them for just being business savvy?

    2) Last I checked, the doors were opened to send jobs overseas by a little ditty called NAFTA. Then the creator of NAFTA went and made China (our top competitior in most areas) our most favored trade partner and made it easier for China to send their products over here for us to buy, further weakening our own businesses and forcing them to look for ways to cut production costs (see #1).

    Seriously. What are these people the most upset over? Jobs going overseas and companies getting bailed out. Who did those things? Clinton and Obama. Whose fault is it that they are/were in office? The people who are now complaining. Seems a little stupid to me.

    And that is ONE of the reasons why America is where it's at right now. Because people don't see the problem with outsourcing jobs...my conversation about this is over...

    ahhh lol

    and about the outsourcing of jobs..i own a scrap yard..and i recently was hired to clean out a factory that had recently closed..now they didnt close because the economy was hitting them hard..they closed because of the union..they had 15 days a year they could call and say reason beyond my control and they couldnt get in trouble for missing work..along with all holidays. they were making close to 55 dollars an hour (thats with their benefits added in other wise 20-22) and they still werent happy they wanted 20 days instead of 15 and wanted 60 instead of 55..well the owner decided to close the factory and move it to india..he didnt outsource the job...the greedy union members outsourced their own jobs..they had it made and now they all unemployed...its not just the top rich guys who are greedy..

    Do you guys ever watch that segment on ABC Nightly news called "Made in America?" I really dig that segment & I for one try to buy most of my needs that are made in the U.S.A. call me American or what ever but it only takes less than a few second to turn the item around to check if it's made here or abroad & it's worth my time to keep my fellow Americans employed rather they make $7.25 an hour or $14.37 an hour. Rather they get any assistance with their food or electric bills or they don't need to.

    BTW support America please buy American made goods if you can!!!

    I never understood the thought process behind villifying the rich. I mean these protestors sure aren't creating jobs.

    It seems the orginizer in chief ,the one really behind this mob of folks has extended his approval of people rioting in the streets and bringing trouble throughout this country , Kinda by design if you follow the people he hangs with . How can a president of the united states lend his support to this ? .I respect there right to protest 100% but when they are causing havoc he should step in and put the fire out , However he is just ramping these folks up. I have yet to see an informative interview as to what these people want other than to collapse the system whch falls right in line with Obama's plan .

    Or the rich can have people in other countries work for them for cheaper prices and make themselves richer...oops i guess that's already happening, huh? Because you know it's not like 80% of businesses and corporations in America haven't already done that.

    So based off what i just said why should i give a rat's fuzzy bottom about rich people, again? And how exactly is businesses and corporations helping middle class and lower class in America by outsourcing jobs, again?

    Im gonna suggest when you go to work monday you go to your boss and ask him are you rich , will you have my paycheck on friday so you can pay your bills and buy your food , when he says yes your check will be there tell him you quit because you hate the rich .

    Sure they are creating jobs , Just think of all the jobs that will be needed to clean up after these people get tired of not having thier demands met this is just another way of Obama creating jobs . Before its over there will be a ton of glass to replace and buildings to repaint and think of the jail staffers getting all that overtime from thousands of arrest , Just an extention of Obama's jobs bill.

    The big difference Between Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party would be Jail Space !

    Yeah from some of the pictures I have seen it looks like they are causing quite the mess.
