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.


Just maybe this uprising will help push the idea of campaign finance
and lobbying reform forward. We have a bought congress and they serve
at the beck and call of their supporters.

Wall Street is one of the main players at the table, along with a
number of the largest corporate players. Time for Washington DC to
return to doing the people's business instead of whoring for financial
services who want to bend the rules to suit their bottom line.

Agreed 100%

It's interesting to watch the likes of Chris Mathews (who I respect) and
other liberal minded political commentators tiptoe around this issue.
Officially, the talk is "Wall Street or Big Business Greed", yet he and
many he interviews concede that Congress is basically bought .... except
those Representatives or Senators that he happens to have on his show of
course. They just blame someone else or finger Wall Street or Big
Business. Blame them for what? For being in compliance with the rules
that they, the Congress, are responsible for putting into law?

Give 'em all their pink slips.

Agreed. Because in reality the problem is government and why government
can't fix the problem. Government is the problem, too much fraud money
print and toxic to business crap.

But like pre-WW II Germany, blame the rich and companies, even
confiscate a few like GM. Driven by envy, greed and the "national
socialist" party, later known as Adolph and the Nazi.

Fact is rich would love to invest, but that doesn't mean loose money to
lethargic entitled lazy workers and tax greedy civic/state/fed
government sin a depreciating economy.

Be like workers going to work for no profit/pay or to loose money.

Fact is unscrupulous evil politicians are using it as a scape goat,
blame deflection from the real causes. After all the real cause sits
right in the Whitehouse. A bully, pushing on others to blame deflect
his inadequacies. A common trait of dads abandoning their kids is the
bull mentality, and 0bama has it.

Fact is 0bama is now a real problem for the survival of the USA. He
can't be allowed to continue, the economical, social and political
damage 0bama has done is not good at all. USA might have a bigger WW II
armed forces than the other top 25 nations combined including Russia and
China, but the economic underbelly is about to fall out.
