OK, I am sorry, I know the Occupy rant has been done to death. I just find it really surprising how little support there is for the “movement” on here. So, c’mon, if you’ve got it all figured out – tell me – wtf do you really think you are accomplishing with this? What changes are you hoping to make to the world? Tell me, tell me, tell me. I promise – I won’t attack your personal hygiene, your willingness to get a job, or your general appearance. Promise.
Let’s just have a little healthy debate here. I’ll tell you what – I’ll even drink a dozen beers and type with my left hand while I respond to your sure-to-be-well-thought-out-and-reasonable arguments. Just to make it sporting.
Let’s go. —Certainly Not a 1%’er But in the Top Half of the Other 99

There is little debate on here because these folks are not occupying the B!tch board as they are out in the wild with no internet access.
Jesus christ, OP ever heard of Google?
(yawn)
You want to make a real statement to the real culprits of inflation & the eroision of the dollar.
Get out of debt.
Stop paying ridiculous banking fees.
Look for free bankin’ options available…so open yer eyes & check them out & use them.
Use credit unions as oppose to the big banks.
Hit those bastards where it REALLY HURTS, in their wallets aka bottom line !
Have any of you heard what the public, Joe & Jane worker has done to Bank America & some of the other big banks in the US ?
THey closed ther accounts, removed everything from checking to savings to RRSP bank plans…to the tune of over 4 billion dollars from the control of these Banking Assholes .
& its hurting them. The NOV 5 ‘Account Closing Day in the US seen approximately 650,000 people close their accounts & move their money to small credit unions and other small financial institutions.
Bank America has canceled its monthly $5.00 debit card fee, because of this one of the other banks of the big 6 US Banks are cutting checking account fees etc in an attempt to keep customers.
Who said us little guys can’t do anything ?!?
Seems if we work together, we can really fuck with them ~:)
“Jesus christ, OP ever heard of Google?”
But the evil B’stards who founded Google are worth billions!?! They’re 1%’ers for Christ sake!! Probably even 0.01%’ers. Surely I shouldn’t be supporting them in their evil quest for the almighty dollar, should I??
Hopefully all the NDP supporters, including PSAC, CAW and whatever KYLE BUOTT represents will soon realize that the NS NDP are nothing but a bunch of left-wing nutbars. How voters privacy rights can be taken away with a swipe of a majority is beyond me. This UNION FREINDLY gov’t makes Harper look like a saint. Fuck you PAT MARTIN: if you really knew what the NS NDP was up to, you would keep your loudmouth anti-democratic trap shut! Fuck the NDP and fuck the unions!
So how do the interest rates between banks and credit unions really differ? My son was with a credit union in another part of the province and dealing with the credit unions in the city was more of a hassle than it was worth. The same with Co-operators for his insurance. I’m with a certain green bank and have been when they merged with my original trust of a national nature and have very seldom had any problems and the rare times I did it was handled in minutes.
I’m hoping they get tasered! Maybe the city could call in the North Preston thugs to deal with them? Or the Uniacke Square shooters?
The most effective crowd dispersal method, that I’ve seen, for the occupy movement…

lol Hugo. They run away before someone hires them.
“North Preston thugs… Uniacke Square…”
Were you squat-humped by a bunch of black guys, Sebbie? You say the most racist shit. Seriously, it turns me on.
I will gladly suck the chrome off your trailer hitch, if you dress up in your Klansman suit!
