]]> Comment on Will iPhone Join Occupy Wall Street? by SupermomWannabe http://www.theslowbleed.com/humor/will-iphone-join-occupy-wall-street/comment-page-1/#comment-43840 SupermomWannabe Sat, 03 Dec 2011 00:52:31 +0000 http://www.theslowbleed.com/?p=3474#comment-43840 I support the Occupy commitment and enthusiasm, especially because I'm part of the 99% and have a great many grievances (as do many!). I do think that the government, and the laws are where the focus should be, because if there is a problem with politicians being "bought" by corporations, and money playing into whether laws pass or fail, how does that happen? Get to the root of those problems and fix 'em for starters. Laws and government needs changing and restructuring to better protect people. I definitely do not think there is an easy answer, but slow progress is always possible if people demand it.

They are not organized in any fashion to articulate their point (other than corporations suck). Of course corporations operate under whatever laws and tax structures are put in front of them. The politicians are laughing their asses off right now at the distraction away from them. I love the passion, but they need to direct it towards something with a possible outcome. Saying corporations are evil makes me wonder where they plan on finding work someday. Corporation employ people. People need to work. If they have an issue with how much money a corporation makes (ie: free enterprise) than we need to move towards a complete dictatorship (with all money and profits going to the government). Doesn't sound like a "free" society to me. Possibly. They are not organized in any fashion to articulate their point (other than corporations suck).

I noticed the guys interviewed in Oakland Ca. are occupying to stop gang injunctions. And guess what? Berkeley allows protest in front of the Marine Corps Recruiting station but won't allow the campus to be occupied. Time for Wine and a Cigar I’m with you man.

I don't understand why people get so excited, threaten to leave for yet another social site that will likely do the same thing in the long run. The site is owned and they let us use it for FREE. People don't understand ownership. If I owned such a site, I would love feedback, good and bad, but ultimately the decision is mine. If my decisions were bad, I guess a mass exodus would be expected. So leave. Why rant and rave and think that will help? Anyway, I LOVE to be able to learn about my friends from around the world in one place. I just accept the changes. I agree with you completely.
