Why Occupy Wall Street is Full of Shit

I want to get a few things off my chest.  First and foremost, where the fuck were these retards in 2008, 2009 and 2010?  They allegedly protest the bank bailouts...but that's not all they protest.  They basically protest EVERYTHING they don't like with either this country or the world.  Don't roll your eyes at me.  Don't be saying to yourself, there he goes again...the conservative...

Because that would be intellectually dishonest and complete bullshit:  Why?

1.  In 2007 The Angry Trader warned you and the world of the impending financial crisis. 

2.  From 2007 to the present, the Angry Trader has argued with great specificity over and over again that our political system AND financial systems were broken.

3.  Beginning in 2007 The Angry Trader WARNED you that civil unrest and ultimately anarchy would sweep this country.

4.  The Angry Trader continues to warn that things are NOT OK, and that a global financial collapse still looms ahead.

So why do I think Occupy Wall Street is full of shit?  Simple.  This gathering is not about Wall Street.  They think it is.  In reality it is a vote against government and a broad protest of institutions.  What institutions?  What elements of the government?

1.  ALL Government
2.  Financial
3.  Educational
4.  Employment
5.  Medical

Take a look at these images from buzzfeed.com;  they went out of their way to highlight who the 99% is.  http://www.buzzfeed.com/jpmoore/reasons-people-are-occupying-wall-street. 

Each image is more saddening than the next(except for picture #12--and we will discuss him in more depth in a moment).  The images and the issues addressed are not about Wall Street.  Wall Street is the scape goat here.  The issues are all related to the institutions listed above.  These institutions are all broken.  And this is the root of our problem in America as well as the problem on a global scale. 

Nowhere in the Constitution does it articulate that as an American you are entitled to shit beyond; life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  The Constitution does not articulate a set of rules (or even guidelines) that would offer entitlements such as, free health insurance, free higher education, employment, or any type of welfare. 

We have created a Welfare system that has helped bankrupt our country.  We have created the presumption that the Government will fix things and take care of us and at the same time we have created the notion that we are all entitled to something. 

This is NOT about Wall Street and it is clearly about a frustration with a broad institutional breakdown.  Until the Occupy Wall Street people figure this out, they will not be taken seriously and they will continue to really piss me the fuck off.
Check out this video...it highlights how this is NOT ABOUT WALL STREET!! 

Lastly, lets go back to person or image number 12.  That guy embodies America.  That to me is the American dream.  Have an idea?  Do it!  Work your ass off and make it happen.  Grow it!!  Succeed.....   That guy said, 'I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore!"  He didn't go down to the square in Manhattan and squat.  He fucking did something about it.

When did the government helping you out get in the middle of a formula that has worked for the past 200+ years?

I can hear you libs yelling now...there are no jobs..there is no help...there is no money to pay for mortgages, food etc...  I hear ya.  That is NOT Wall Street's fault.  It's just not.  Wall Street is a piece to a much larger problem we are dealing with. 

So SUCK IT!! Ocuupy Wall Street.  Suck it!
