"Al Qaeda had better benefits than Wal-Mart. Although at Wal-Mart, you get to wear your vest more than once." -- Stephen Colbert
I agree the only one that makes any sense at all is the first one (minus their $20 an hour wage demand). Increasing the tariffs would level the playing field here and some companies might actually want to start production back in the US if the costs equalled out or were higher for foreign production after tariffs. Of course, that would upset the Wal Mart peoples who like to buy cheap stuff...

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
I don't understand why so many of you guys like #1.
All that trade protectionism does is increase the cost of items we want/need and reduce markets for American companies around the world.
Neither of those things helps the US economy.
Some of y'all need to read more Thomas Sowell (in particular Basic Economics and Applied Economics). For the quick answer, go here and watch clip #4.
Better yet I'll embed it:
But do go back and watch the other videos. Then go buy the books and read them.

Those guys are cracked. I can't even wrap my head around how that list of demands has anything to do with Wall Street. They're definitely confused.
If I made a list for Wall Street related legislation(and I can't wait for the flack on this one), it would be:
1. Ban computerized front-running.
2. Place new restrictions on commodities speculation.
3. Re-instate Glass-Steagall
4. Ban shorting. Want to trade it? You have to own it.
I'll go hide now.
Except just about everything is made in Taiwan/China/Honduras/etc... so everything would get very expensive until US manufacturing ramped back up. I would love to see this happen, but you'd see a lot of companies go out of business very fast because they import and sell the cheap stuff. Luckily, the other side of that coin is the jobs created in the US manufacturing market... except they'd probably hire illegal labor for $2.50/hr to recoup costs. Two edges on every sword makes it hard to jump on one side or another... but I do hear you and agree.
That $20/hr minimum wage is pretty ludicrous. I don't even make $20/hr! I'd love to, but it would be pretty taxing (pardon the pun) on my boss/dad.

Didn't I just see these same wad-gobblers hangin' out in Madison over the summer?
I'm ready for this country to explode...I'm just ready, and I do understand and accept the gravity of such a position. I respect what my country was, or at least what it intended/desired to be, but I truly despise the greater percentage of the US population at this point. I've grown weary of having to "tolerate the two-percenters" at every-turn while remaining a good citizen under the thumb of a Governmental system that is failing me as well.
I'll sit around and be a good sheep in the interim but this country needs a fukken bath...I'm now eager for that day to come. What a damn shame I think that way.
Gotta run...I have to go re-balance my portfolio.
Here, if you want to see these idiots in their own words (and lampooned at the same time) y'all can go waste some time here.

well this is what happens when the "Deluded" Masses drink the political Kool-aid and don't understand that the "hope and change" they will be receiving is a hope for the better and a change for the worse.
"reality hits you hard bro."
Pretty sure the title says, "Proposed List Of Demands" in a pretty large font at the top. Also this is one voice in what appears to be a more or less leaderless movement... just like other internet groups, the idea of something existing without leadership (and thus without any coherent or unified list of demaneds) is difficult for people to grasp.
Almost all of what's here is utopian pipe dreams, except:
Wish we'd spent a trillion on infrastructure instead of Iraq.Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now.
