Since I am still unemployed (got a job and start in a week or so thank you very little) I figured I would check out the whole "Occupy Wall Street" thing going on downtown. A bit of irony, the square they are squatting in is directly across from where I used to work. Oh the irony. But I digress. Today was all about getting to the bottom of the question, "What is Occupy Wall Street All About?" I am hoping that the UN-edited question and answer video taken by The Angry Trader today will shed some light into who are these people and what do they want??
There is one thing painfully clear to us here at The Angry Trader. This is not about (or all about) Wall Street for most people. Just like I wrote yesterday...it is about whatever is pissing people off in their lives. Take a look at the videos. Listen(sorry for the background noise) to what the people have to say. I think the movement should be renamed to, "The American Dream is Gone" or "Government Fail." Here are a few of my interviews.
A quick discussion of class warfare...
And another.....this guy is out there...
Here were the two nice Jewish Girls promoting the holiday of Sukkot:
And here are some other real freaks...
To this guy, Occupy Wall Street is a battle with the food companies....
I did find one business owner and this is what her husband(?) and she had to say:
The bottom line is the people I spoke with care about Wall Street, but clearly it is not their primary focus. change the name of Occupy Wall Street to Government Fail and all will be well.

Can We Just NUKE IRAN NOW??
If we do not NUKE IRAN NOW, they will attack us. Be warned. |
It has long been the position of The Angry Trader that there is no stopping IRAN but to NUKE them back into the stone age. So now we find out a plot that the Iranians launched to kill the Saudi Ambassador and attack their and Israel's embassies in DC. Does it surprise you? It shouldn't.
Someone has nuclear terror on his brain... |
In the past 8 weeks, The Angry Trader just wrote of a quiet war underway in Persia. One involving IRAN vs. SAUDI ARABIA. The Arab Spring is all about this war. It is all about regime change under the guise of democracy. Only after the regime is overthrown, Iranian backed leaders are taking over the countries....
IRAN IS AT WAR WITH AMERICA...when will you all pull your collective heads out of your asses and wake up? Probably after they attack us.

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.
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!
