“Two Parties—One Greed” my contribution

Seek solutions instead of saviors.  That’s why for me this global occupy and Occupy Wall Street is all about the parties, the two parties that we have in this country who have sold us out.  It does not matter if the party is Dem or GOP or if the man is black or white or both.  The money that it now takes to become president is obscene.  It is all about the money IMO and I think that is what people are reacting to the greed is wide as the ocean.  OWS need to start with two criminals: Chris Dodd and Barney Frank for the infamous Frank-Dodd bill.

We are living in an ocean of greed.  It does not matter which party is in power or what the professed creed.  I believe it is ONE GREED.  Two parties—One Greed.  We can do better in this country.  We can bring jobs back if we look for solutions instead of saviors.

Occupy Wall Street Slogans

The biggest cry from the street seems to be: END THE FED;  Wall Street got bailed out and we got sold out.  “The Right and the Left Agree–End the Fed!”  truth on a sign of the times…end the freakin Fed. Is this where the anti semitism on OWS is coming from?   

Here’s the latest one I saw:  $5 Billion dollar tax cut helps the (greedy) NEEDY Billionaires.  The word greedy has a line through it!  Gotta love it.

There is a whole lot of double standard going on with the Tea Party who does not like the Occupy Wall Street lefty movement.  Black folks have always said that when something is a problem in our community only…then who cares? But when it hits white folks then the whole world stops and action is taken.  Is that what’s happening now? I don’t see any illegal aliens carrying signs out there do you?

Here’s something for ya from Heloise:

Two Washingtons: one rich, one filthy rich

Create Jobs–Not War

American jobs on a fast boat to China

Two Parties–One Greed

Glenn Beck said that they (the lefty bank) will get you and drag you out and kill you!  That’s over the top Glenn Beck even for you.

I am not on either side. I lost money on Wall Street and made money in stock market as well.  But the chasm is getting wider between the haves and have something.   You can’t say they have nothing come on.

There have been prophecies perhaps related to this new global occupy and it goes something like: the power of Washington will be moved to another city in this country.  That could be New York City and the Wall Street banksters.  And all that goes with Wall Street and the inevitable bailouts for them.   When slaves were very bad they were literally “sold down the river.”  

Then there is the lie that the people in protests are kooks.  They are not.  There are teachers and the newly unemployed and the newly impoverished.  In Chicago Ed Shultz was there interviewing the president of the union for CPS (Chicago Public Schools) Karen Lewis.  Just before she did the interview she was in a red dress holding a sign with the rest of the protestors.  She gave Ed an earful of about how Rahm Emanuel evicerated the 4% raise CPS teachers were to get and went right to Springfield to make it impossible for teachers in future to negotiate their contracts with the union.

This is getting real folks.  Occupy Wall Street going global.
