Anyone seen a mission statment from these protesters?

Venting frustration. Understandable, but totally ineffective.
Here's why, IMO:

They are protesting the wrong people and groups. Think about it.
Your CPA or tax return preparer will advise you to take every legal
deduction available to you on your individual tax returns.
Those legal deductions (and legal loopholes) are legislated and determined
by ...... guess who?

Business tax returns and rules governing Wall Street operations are also
subject to legal deductions and loopholes,
legislated and determined by ...... guess who?

The protesters are targeting the wrong groups. The group that should be
protested and voted out of office are the career
politicians in DC who determine and write the rules that individuals, banks,
businesses and Wall Street are subject to.
These corrupt politicians .... on both sides of the political spectrum ....
have established too many IOU's over their "careers"
and have muddied the waters with BS to cast the blame on everyone else other
than themselves.

And we are stupid enough to believe them and continue to re-elect them.


You don't get it. They are protesting the "system."
Part of the system is the Wall Street bought pols getting re-elected.
Where do you get the idea they don't despise the current politicians?
And do you really think most of these people have a CPA, or have enough
income to worry about tax dodges?

What they have is debt and no prospects for a good job.
The protesters have avoided having a political agenda.
That's a good move. Nearly all the pols are bought, so will turn
against them with a vengeance.
For example, 3 new free trade bills just passed Congress a few days ago.
Those trade bills will cost the U.S. hundreds of thousands of jobs.
Who lobbied most for these bills?
Citibank, big pharma, and big agriculture. Wall Street.
Who voted for the bills?
Democrats and Republicans.
The so-called "socialist" President, Obama, will sign them into law.
So we'll soon have Hyundais and other Korean products for sale here that
are produced by North Korean slave labor of Kim Jong-il.
Panama, a premier tax shelter haven, will be able to tax shelter more
U.S. corporations and other wealth with added treaty protections.
The system is broken.

Here's what's going to happen in the not distant future.
As joblessness, despair for a decent future, and wealth disparity become
even more pronounced, the protests will grow.
There will be violence. Blood will flow. Heads will be put on pikes.
It's going to get very nasty.
EVERYBODY in the U.S. is covered by the 2nd Amendment.
Firebombs are easy to construct.
Most people will have to take a side, if they can't just lay low and
keeps their mouths shut.
