    Most Americans think that one rape is one to many - apparently for you it's 'what's the big deal'?

    I've noticed for awhile now that when you address 'Americans' it's always w/contempt.......

    Care to explain why?

    imagine had the Tea Party been doing the same thing as the OWS scrubs, the liberals would be seriously calling them extreme terrorists who like to rape little girls.

    "So what?" to 3-4 sexually assaulted women? Sounds like a reply from a Muslim guy to me....:twisted:

    Please tell me the difference between that and a CEO laying off thousands because he did a bad job then taking a golden parachute and walking off into the sunset...? Which is going on all over America. We just want what we had to begin with before we were robbed.

    No, it's called theft. When someone destroys a company then lays off most of the workforce and adds all their former paychecks to his already million-dollar salary, it's called grand theft.

    It's only legal because of the golden rule, "They who have the gold make the rules" We of the 99% would like to return it back to a fair and equitable society.

    Herman Cain seems to be allying himself with the 1%. I guess he thinks 1% is enough to win an election?

    Many times. The minimum standard of living here is ten times that of Mexico, etc

    The fact is... Life in USA at 7/hr is better than 75% of the world

    we my ass, we dont deserve anything. sometimes a company goes to the tank and (*)(*)(*)(*) happens, its called life. nothing is guaranteed. im not owed anything for a company going under and neither are you especially if you dont have any involvement in that company.

    should be glad they had that job while other people are still looking for one. stop acting like "we" are owed anything, its pathetic.

    That is a good question.
    But what is the alternative? Which guidelines should we implement to prevent this from happening?
    What's more, how many companies would remain in the US, or other nations with similar rules in place, instead of relocating to countries which are more "rich friendly" for a lack of a better term?
    How many businesses would even get started, with such risks and no guarantee that the business one creates will not be taken over by ?socialist (again, lack of a more precise term) handlers?
    Don't forget, borders are no obstacles these days. While we protest, and why not, since we can, we should bring these thoughts to fruition, think them all the way through.
    Unless these stipulations are worldwide, no one wins, esp not the poor.
    Think people.
    How many cause have these protesters contributed to, what have they accomplished? How many jobs have they created, how many people were helped?

    So we should wait until we're a third-world country before we do anything about it? Utter nonsense.

    Maybe someone should tell Herman Cain that there are no jobs out there; 34 million people are out of work. I'm sure most of the protestors would love to find a job if there were jobs out there.

    I can see thousands of jobs. www.jobs.com

    If there weren't jobs, wouldn't that website go out of business?

    I would say get a job would be the top priority there. What a complete waste of time, and sadly we are all paying for their monthly salaries.

    Its not jobs they want,they want handouts.They want US to pay off their stupid loans and bills.Since when is it Washingtons or tax payers responsibility to pay their bills?I compare the people at OWS to a child throwing a tantrum at Wal-Mart because mommy wont buy him a toy.Like I said before,theres plenty of crops to be picked in the fields of Alabama abandoned by illegals that fled the state.get to pickin,commies!!

    Thousands are nice, but we are talking over tens of millions of jobs that are needed.

    People need to re-evaluate their expectations in the current market. There are jobs out there, just too many losers who think they are too good for them. Too many people are willing to live off Uncle Sam because its more profitable than working, how sad is that?

    I don't know, every person that I personally know who's out of work will take anything they can get, no matter how low the pay is, just so they are working. Even McDonalds has no jobs and usually anyone can get hired there. None of them want to be on welfare or unemployment due to the stigma attached to it.

    People are taking any low paying job they can get but if you have family, you can't afford and apartment, food and transportation $7 an hour.. so they are burning thru their savings and working.

    My experience as an employer in these times is that too many people want $1 million dollar paychecks for $100 work. The American worker is becoming a huge disappointment.
