Yep, the horror of self reliance. For the thumb suckers it paints a gruesome future. One of responsibility for one's actions. Gee, like being an adult. |

I like the 3 1/2 days idea, it would definitely be a reality check for many. And, not just students, but many others as well. I listened to an interview of several of the sit in protestors yesterday. The are a conglomeration of people who are frustrated with the status quo. Sure there are those who think they should be entitled, but many more are upset because they feel the game is rigged. It's not that corporations are evil or bad, it's that some (but not all) use the wealth generated to enfluence policies in Washington to stack the deck in their favor. This results in the rich getting richer and everyone else getting poorer. I wonder where all these people were during the 2010 midterm elections, perhaps asleep. Now they have woke up lets hope they make their voices heard at the ballot box in 2012. |

How is ousting Obama going to get a bunch of malcontents off their ass and into a job? I will bet that if you walked into the crowd offering work in a warehouse or construction, most of the sit in group would laugh in your face. |

Sea, yours is not to question but to go along with it. Obama is the blame even for Bushes screwups.The cons have nothing to offer but belly aching and Bachmann. |

Obama is anti-self-reliance (sse my previous post), something OWS needs to learn. |

I suspect the definition of liberal in this group of Obama haters, is anyone who doesn't agree with their ultra right wing views. Whatever happened to moderate Republicans? I think the Koch sponsored Tea Party has them running scared, and flip flopping. |
