Just who supports the "Occupy" movement?

Via Pajamas Media, Zombie has compiled a list of OWS supporters.  Not surprising to me but may be an eye-opener for some.  Go check it out.

99%??? I think not.

A plan to end entitlements

Brilliant analysis at Pajamas Media.

Here is a sample:

For nearly two centuries, Americans, including millions of penniless immigrants, eloquently proved the point. The world marveled at the typical American’s self-reliance, be it his ability to earn a living, build his house, fix his car, or move up the social ladder. In every domain, when left free to think, act, and enjoy the rewards of hard work, Americans surpassed themselves and the rest of the world.
But advocates of entitlement programs deny this. They view man (except perhaps that special breed which constitutes the governing class) as feeble and incapable. He can’t think or plan for himself. He must be forced to act for his own “good.” Indeed, as we saw with the passage of Obamacare, there’s no longer even a pretense of persuasion; we childlike peons are to find out what’s in store for us when the laws have been passed. Ever since the New Deal, it’s this paternalistic view that’s guided government policy.
Tragically, however, the paternalists have the causation backwards. In actuality, it’s their myriad of forced redistribution programs that has fostered a mentality of dependence among the populace. With each new program they implement, they further sever the link between personal action and personal outcomes. Slowly people lose the idea of individual responsibility, and begin to believe that somehow they’re “entitled to” or have a “right to” the products of other people’s efforts. As a result, America’s independent spirit is waning.
A final key moral question is whether people should be treated primarily as independent individuals or as interchangeable parts of a larger collective.

Go read the rest for yourself.

Entitlements and collectivism

Wisconsin-It's Working. Unions.... go away.

The Economy Stinks, in case you hadn't noticed. Obama works to make it worse.

Our economic woes are caused by many things and the government is at the top of the list, along with corruption, crony capitalism, and entitlements.   Great analysis by the Wall Street Journal.

Just say "NO" to Keynesian economics!


This is what we need:

Paul Ryan speaks

And this is what we don't need:

Bypassing Congress and "governing" through executive order

Obama is increasingly pushing through his agenda by working around Congress via executive order and government agency rules and regulations.  He is grabbing more power, creating more unsustainable debt, and putting more burden on the taxpayers.  Not a way to fix the economy.

Turning to socialism is not the answer to our problems.  Getting the government out of the way is a good first step.

Leftist Hypocrites? Say it ain't so.........

So, how is it that the people who want income redistributed and for the "haves" to pay their fair share,  don't want to share their organic chicken and beet with goat cheese salad with the homeless?   The "Occupiers" are complaining that the homeless and ex-cons are showing up for the free food (and just WHO is funding all this?).    No hypocrisy there, right?  And, FYI, the vast majority of the protesters are white and the majority of the "freeloaders" (the occupiers used this term, isn't that special) are non-white.  Yet they accuse the right of racism.  That is rich....    it is so very frustrating to watch the media cover up for them or compare them to the Tea Party.  The Tea Party never acted like this, not even close.  And they have a clear, open agenda.  No comparison.

You have to share, but we don't.. especially with those awful homeless people..

Class warfare is an ugly thing, historically orchestrated by behind-the-scenes elites, who keep the spoils for themselves once the bottom feeders get done with the dirty work of overturning society and overthrowing the government (usually violently). Those on the bottom may end up better off than those that they now oppress but they don't get to share the wealth they steal with the elites. Same thing every time, yet the left somehow thinks this time they will get it right; that they won't have to spill as much blood, but they underestimate the love of freedom and liberty. These people are willing to achieve their goals with violence, which is so ironic when they accuse the right of being the ones who are violent. Communism, fascism, even Nazi-ism are all deeply rooted in left wing ideology; redistribution of wealth, government control/regulation of industry and finance, the class struggle. These are the ideologies that have spilled the most blood, not right-wing. Don't think that the “Occupy” movement can't at least attempt the same thing. They are well-funded. They appear disorganized but they may be more organized than we think. They already have talked about the use of violence. Fliers found in Arizona talk about shooting police. They have been openly provoking police in an attempt to escalate the issue and gain public support by crying “police brutality”. They put women, children and disabled people on the perimeter of the protest sites so that if police intervention is needed, they have to go through the most vulnerable people, creating another image to garner sympathy.

But...  this a a peaceful, non-violent movement, right?



They would never dream of indoctrinating children, right?


Continuing great coverage at Verum Serum


Forcibly taking from one to give to another does not make you virtuous or righteous nor does it make our society virtuous or righteous. It breeds laziness, resentment on the parts of both the takers and the givers, and the end result is oppression and slavery. We cannot and should not compel charity. Charity and helping people are good things but must be done willingly. America is a generous country. We give millions, even billions, of dollars worth of cash, goods, and time. Even “evil” corporations do. Our “poor” are richer than most of the rest of the world. We have created a sense of entitlement to the earnings of other people.
And where do these Hollywood types get off telling the rest of us what to do? They are far and away wealthier than the rest of us? Why aren't they giving away more of what they earn by play-acting for a living while the rest of us work real jobs?
And I'll leave you with this.  Ignorance, anger, hatred, envy.  This is what this movement is made of.  It cannot end well.

Can we question their patriotism now?

Video at the Blaze of an "Occupy" protester saying "f**k the police, military, USA" and he is definitely not alone.  This movement is not about saving this country, it is about destroying it.

F**k the police!

Verum Serum has excellent coverage of the Occupy movement around the country,  Rather than re-posting it all, I'll just link to the main page and you can check it out for yourself.

Good coverage

Conservatives ignore this at their peril.  This is not something we can ignore.  These people are serious and have the backing of the media, Hollywood, and the democrats.

Why is class hatred any better than racial hatred?

Is this in our future?

Horrifying story from Right Scoop:

North Korea's Prisons

And what is going on here?  Is this just a simple test or a test run?

This is only a test.....


A comment from a poster at the Blaze:

Shiroi RaionDo not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can roll the image, make it flutter. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity.
We are in control. Resistance is futile. You shall be assimilated or eliminated. I am Obama of Borg, I am Legion.

A Letter to Christians Who Support the Occupy Movement (or any other Leftist cause)

I have lots of Christian friends who hold lots of opposing views on politics and current events.  There is nothing wrong with that.  God gave us free will, the ability to think and reason, and the power to make up our own minds.  Debate is good.  I am concerned, however, with Christians who support any of the "Occupy" movements.   SOME of what these people are demanding may sound reasonable.  Greed is evil; share the wealth; give to the poor.  We should want to help the poor.  But we need to look further than the slogans.

For example, a friend posted the following quote on Facebook, taken from "Occupy Los Angeles"page :"The test of our progress is not whether we add to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough to those who have too little".   Great quote, sounds wonderful.  The issue is, though, what God has asked us to do and the example he set for us.   God gave us free will.  He did not compel us in any way to do anything, even to accept the gift of salvation that He offers. He tells us as individuals and as churches to care for the poor and love one another, commands us, even, but never forces or imposes on us.  Do we honestly think He desires us to compel one another? 

God loves a cheerful giver. He asks us to give to the point of sacrifice, not force others to do it.  He does not want our gifts if they are grudgingly given.  Who are we to think that compelling others to give as we, ourselves, were commanded to give is pleasing to God?    What this socialist movement wants is to compel people, to force them.   The end result of what they are asking is totalitarianism.  God is not a dictator.    At the same time He asks us to care for those who cannot care for themselves, He admonishes the lazy, indolent, and slothful.  He expects those who are able, to be productive.  This movement is not in line with God's principles.

Look at the people behind these movements.  Educate yourself about this and what is actually happening at these demonstrations.  The Communist and Nazi parties support the movement.  The demonstration areas are full of garbage and filth, rats are prevalent, there are drugs and alcohol, sexual assault and harassment, theft, harassment of business owners and local workers and families.   Should any decent person, let alone a Christian, support this absolute degeneracy?


Thoughts from another blog:

What Jesus Would Not Do



Last of all, consider this:  The whole "Occupy" movement is rooted in Alinsky tactics and methods; the same Alinsky who dedicated his book "Rules for Radicals" to Lucifer.   Still the side you want to sympathize with?

Pitchforks

Alinsky to Obama

More "Occupy" Madness

More "occupy" madness.Filth, noise, sexual harassment and assault (but don't report it, makes the "movement look bad).  Do we really want any of these people influencing public policy in any way?

There aren't even words for this one......

Nice Roundup from Moonbattery

Coverage at Flopping Aces-Commies and Racists

Indecent Exposure

Everything should be free


Free college education.. someone has to pay for it.  Get a real degree, something that gives you a profession or trade, not some piece of paper that makes you a professional whiner or victim, such as women's studies or some such nonsense.  Do something tangible, real, and for heaven's sake, don't expect the rest of us to pay for it!!  Do people realize that many of these "protesters", especially the East Coast ones, are actually trust fund, college-paid-for-by-rich parents hypocrites??  A bunch of ignorant of real life radicals trying to enforce a horrific "progressive" agenda on the rest of us.  What they really want, if it comes to fruition, will transform the most free nation and economy on earth to a totalitarian police state.  The things they want can only come through force and government control.

Free College Education??

Protesters call man N-Word..... I thought the only racists were Republicans?

Protesters use N-Word on black man filming

Marx was right--History does repeat itself. First as a tragedy, second as a farce.

These people are not just a harmless bunch of hippies and drum-beaters.  They are radical, Marxist agitators who are getting funded somehow (George Soros, anyone?).  They have the support of our current president and many democratic leaders.  This is something we need to take seriously.  They want to radicalize our government and destroy the capitalistic system that made this country the wealthiest on earth. 

Educate yourselves and don't take this lying down.

Today's Installment of the "Occupy Wall Street Freak Show"

Sooo... not only do these lazy, greedy hippies want to take from the rich, apparently they can't keep from taking from each other either, according to this article in the New York Post:

Thieves prey on fellow protesters.

Obama seems to think this is all A-OK.  Nobody succeeds without the government's help, he says.  As Penn and Teller would say, "Bullshit!".   People who are creative, smart, hard-working and tenacious can and do make it without government help every day.

People need government help??

For all Obama's talk about "shared sacrifice", what the hell is he sacrificing?  He and Michelle Antoinette seem to be living pretty high on the hog and he still seems to be golfing more than he should.  Ayn Rand had this to say about such men:  "It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master."

This man is a menace and he is in the White House.  He has thrown his support in with these cretins.   Our President is actively supporting socialists who want to destroy our way of life.

It's the Marxism, Stupid

I've been saying for years (as have others) that most leftists are really communists at heart and that most liberals have swallowed the Kool-Aid they are selling.  People think I'm harsh, or overreacting, or a little wacky and paranoid... but these things are proving true.  Of course, the media won't report it.  They are too busy trying to portray this all in a positive light, while they bent over backwards to paint the Tea Party as extremists.  Read the following and decide for yourself.  The "Occupy" movement is all about overthrowing our system and replacing it with some form of communism.  They want to take from the producers and give to the moochers.  We need to stand up and say "NO!"

Marxist Epicenter

Follow the Red Flag!

Dumpster Diving for a New Society

There are no words.  If these people get their way, we will all be dumpster diving for scraps.  This is the result of public school indoctrination, lazy "good buddy" parenting, and entitlement.

The Nazi Party supports the Occupy Wall Street movement. Gee.... shouldn't that make ya think twice?

Hey, the nazis think this is pretty neat-o...

I'll leave you with these quotes from Frank J. at IMAO:

"Basically everything bad the left pretended the Tea Party was is what Occupy Wall Street actually is. That’s why they call it “projection.”
When the left were claiming the Tea Party would become violent, they were saying, “That’s what we would do if we were in their place.”

Damn Dirty Hippies

Check out these stories about the "99%".  Oh really?  I'm pretty sure 99% of the population doesn't take a dump on a police car or live in filth on the streets...  I'm pretty sure most of us are going to work, taking care of ourselves, and not acting like whiny children denied some candy.  Grow up, go home, take a bath, and get a freaking job, any job!  Commie losers.....

They really do want to overthrow our system..... this is not an exaggeration.

Go read and watch at Rebelpundit:

"ultimately, the bourgeoisie won't go without violent means.... long live revolution. Long live socialism"


I am afraid for our country.   How can these people be gaining ground?  Hasn't the repeated failure of communism and the current collapse of socialist economies showed us anything?  What is going to happen to some of these idealists when they realize they have been pawns and are not going to get a piece of the pie?  When they realize they are not going to be "as equal" as the elites who rule them?    Are we heading toward a Russia in 1917 sort of scenario?   

Wake up, people!

Have I Mentioned That Unions Are Evil???

Check out this report from Labor Union Report.   Indoctrinating young people.  Why is the symbol a fist, by the way?  Don't you think that's pretty darned aggressive??

Lessons in Alinsky


Or this from the Blaze:

It's about money, power, and socialism, not workers.

They are marching along with the college hippie Marxists on Wall Street:

Labor unions join the protests

I could go on and on.  They show their true colors time and time again.  Unions are not about "workers rights"..  They are about money, greed, power, and the overthrow of our our system.  Don't let them fool you.

 I'll leave you with this quote from Flyover Country at The Blogmocracy:

"On a Personal note: I was at a conference recently in St. Pete, Fl. There was a Starbucks near the convention and I saw some recruiters for Occupy Tampa. I asked them what are their goals. One of the sociology students was telling me, they wanted free health-care, free education and guaranteed jobs. I retorted that they sounded like the Soviets. After a back and forth, I told him that he’s crazy if he thinks he can overthrow the government. I reminded him, it’s the Rightwing in this country who has most of the guns. I saw this clown go pale and look scared.
Reality hit him."

Heh.

Ugliness from the left..

These people are beyond belief.   So blatant, yet the mainstream media, democrats, Hollywood all seem to condone it.  This is noting new, of course, but so absolutely maddening to those of us with a functioning brain.....  these are just a sample of recent events.

Via Moonbattery:

"Proponents of a more refined First Amendment argue that this freedom should be treated not as a right but as a privilege — a special entitlement granted by the state on a conditional basis that can be revoked if it is ever abused or maltreated."
This from a report from 4 democratic senators.....  


"Behead the bankers"
Talk about beheading people???


Unions involved in Wall Street class warfare
Economic Terrorism

This is just a tiny sample of what is going on.   Wake up and smell the Constitution burning!!  These people are getting more and more bold every day.  They have their Manchurian candidate in the White House.  We need to stand up for our country and our rights.  Economic and religious freedom and property rights are they keys to a successful and prosperous nation.  These people are attempting to subvert and overthrow the system that has made this country so great.   

Letter to the Wall Street Protesters

This says it all.  Go home, you smelly, commie, hippies!!

Letter to the protesters.


Ace of Spades has a great post on this as well.  From what I can see, there are a lot of whiny people with student loan debt that think somehow someone else should pay....  Look. I'm sorry some of you have had some bad luck.  Many of you made bad choices, such as getting an absolutely worthless degree and ended up working at Starbucks.  Certainly there is a lot of greed on Wall Street but pushing your agenda will impoverish us all. Socialism/communism does NOT work!
