What do they want? Occupy is divided.
By Miranda Leitsinger
NEW YORK — As the "Occupy Wall Street" protest enters its third month, members are wrestling with an issue as old as the Athenians who first hatched the idea of democracy around 500 B.C.: Should we issue a set of demands and, if so, what should they be?
The debate has taken on new meaning with this week’s removal of the protest camp at Zuccotti Park. Some in the flagship occupation in the heart of America’s financial sector believe the police action provided them with the perfect moment to put forward specific demands and build support among the so-called “99 percent” of Americans outside the economic elite.

Wall Street CEO confronts "Occupy Wall Street"
Comment

Only one man's opinion which he certainly covers the key points very well.
Thomas Sowell (born June 30, 1930) is an American economist, social theorist, political philosopher, and author. A National Humanities Medal winner, he advocates laissez-faire economics and writes from a libertarian perspective. He is currently a Rose and Milton Friedman Senior Fellow on Public Policy at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.
Sowell was born in North Carolina, but grew up in Harlem, New York. He dropped out of high school, and served in the United States Marine Corps during the Korean War. He had received a bachelor's degree from Harvard University in 1958 and a master's degree from Columbia University in 1959. In 1968, he earned his doctorate degree in economics from the University of Chicago.
Dr. Sowell has served on the faculties of several universities, including Cornell and University of California, Los Angeles, and worked for "think tanks" such as the Urban Institute. Since 1980 he has worked at the Hoover Institution. He is the author of more than 30 books.

The current Occupy Wall Street movement is the best illustration to date
of what President Barack Obama's America looks like. It is an America
where the lawless, unaccomplished, ignorant and incompetent rule. It is
an America where those who have sacrificed nothing pillage and destroy
the lives of those who have sacrificed greatly.
It is an America where history is rewritten to honor dictators, murderers
and thieves. It is an America where violence, racism, hatred, class warfare
and murder are all promoted as acceptable means of overturning the American
civil society.
It is an America where humans have been degraded to the level of animals:
defecating in public, having sex in public, devoid of basic hygiene. It is an
America where the basic tenets of a civil society, including faith, family, a
free press and individual rights, have been rejected. It is an America where
our founding documents have been shredded and, with them, every person's
guaranteed liberties.
It is an America where, ultimately, great suffering will come to the American
people, but the rulers like Obama, Michelle Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi,
Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Joe Biden, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, liberal
college professors, union bosses and other loyal liberal/Communist Party members
will live in opulent splendor.
It is the America that Obama and the Democratic Party have created with the
willing assistance of the American media, Hollywood , unions, universities, the
Communist Party of America, the Black Panthers and numerous anti-American
foreign entities.
Barack Obama has brought more destruction upon this country in four years than
any other event in the history of our nation, but it is just the beginning of what he
and his comrades are capable of.
The Occupy Wall Street movement is just another step in their plan for the
annihilation of America .
"Socialism, in general, has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual
could ignore or evade it."
Thomas Sowell
“If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the
highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
Samuel Adams, 1780
If not now, when? If not us, who?

Long live Dr. Sowell. I would also note, with regard to his personal journey, he was a devout Marxist even after graduating from the University of Chicago (where he studied under Milton Friedman).
Thomas Sowell discusses why he once was a Marxist and how he picked up the ideas of Free Market
Edit:
Thomas Sowell gives his reaction to President Obama and the current Republican presidential candidates and what he learned from his life
The man is a national treasure.Last edited by Maggie; November 28, 2011, 12:34 PM.

We have seen tremendous achievements and changes in technology in our world in the last 50 years. It seems like almost every year now that something new and exciting comes along that blows one's mind. And many of you will witness even more and greater ones in the next half century that no one has even an inkling of today.
But, for the most part, when we look back and study history and politics, and the economic aspects of this great country and the world, they in general keep repeating themselves every couple of decades. But we tend to refuse to learn from them.
A hundred years ago, Mark Twain was making the very same exact comments about the politicians, the lawyers, and the economic conditions back then as many of us are today.
The one significant difference though is that this country was never in the tremendous debt that it is in today. We are $15 trillion in the hole today and these idiots cannot even agree on cutting $1.2 trillion over 10 years. We need to cut at least $1 trillion every year just to keep up with the interest on the debt, let alone pay it down.
We are in deep, deep doo-doo and we can't even come up with a Band-Aid.
