    No one would be getting behind number one if we didn't have unreasonable tariffs and taxes on exporting our goods. If people can ship to us without hindrance, or with incentive, then we should be able to do the same with other countries. It makes no sense why we can't sell to other countries without being penalized ourselves.

    Amen!

    As long as there are jobs listed on monster, craigslist, etc, there are OBVIOUSLY people who CAN work who choose NOT to.

    The moment all of those and the classifieds cease to list ANY jobs, yet we still have a high unemployment rate, I will consider changing my tune.

    I understand there are those who are struggling, and have had some genuinely crap times as of of late (shout out to all of you on this board looking for a job... praying for you), but even you guys are spending your time LOOKING for a job, instead of organizing some bull crap post-60's circle jerk excuse to keep NOT working.

    EFF!!!!!!

    I was thinking that they might have some merit when I was reading the first demand, but then they sneaked in the "Oh yeah and 20 bucks an hour!" and I ROFL'd my way through the rest of the demands.

    Someone just got a "C" in his Intro to Economics class.

    I still don't understand what the obsession is with some of you guys and tariffs.

    Which imports get tarrifs levied on them?

    How much will the tarrifs be?

    Who gets to decide?

    How long will they last?

    If you don't think that imposing tarrifs will just be another way the government will use taxes to try to encourage certain behaviors you're kidding yourself.

    Instead of levying tarrifs to make up for our trade disadvantages, why don't we get rid of the unnecessary and/or unconstitutional laws and regulations that put us at a disadvantage in the first place?

    And yes, I do want everybody to earn $0.50 an hour, lower everybody's standard of living, want people to be worked like slaves, etc. I just can't imagine how anybody would ever to be able to make a decent living without the government's help. /sarcasm

    At least congress has authority to levy tarrifs IAW Article 1, Section 8. The rest of the list of demands shows total constitutional and economic ignorance. The list actually sounds a lot like the 10 pillars of communism.

    I have no doubts that the list of demands is just the start of what they want without any real effort on their part of course.

    Typical liberals, expect everything to be given to them in exchange for nothing. That 'life isn't fair' bullshit is so 8 year old girl.

    Unless you're a liberal. Then it's perfectly rational thought.

    These Wall Street protesters don't even know recent history.

    Bush ran TARP for Wall Street.

    Obama ran QE1 and QE2 for Wall Street and now Obama is promoting some new hogwash called a Jobs Bill.

    The protesters are protesting the very same folks that Obama, whom many of them voted for, is helping. Morons.

    I was listening to Boyles this morning and he is playing these recordings from something called Anonymous from the Occupy Wall Street collective.

    The recording says something will happen on October 10th, 2011. I guess we'll wait and see.
