michaelleung: A lot of people in Congress are against it, to be fair.
No one said Congress was the brightest in the nation.

michaelleung: I think he does. Surely everyone knows about the New Deal (by name, at least). It's one of the cornerstones of American superiority of the 20th century.

Rohan15: If he does than he is probably against it.
I know that it something done during or before the second World War. Let me read up a bit, and I'll get back whether I'm against it or for it.

My history skillz are a bit rusty right now.

It basically created social welfare systems in America.

From what I remember from my American history classes, the New Deal was formed during the Great Depression and basically established what we all know as Social Security amongst other things.

Not just that, it also brought in regulations on the banks so they wouldn't screw up like they did during the Depression. They even started using fiat money as opposed to the gold standard, which depending on how you look at it is either a great idea or a terrible one.

uulav: What are your thoughts on this matter, movement is almost 7 months old now and they still exisits. One thing they have been successful is raising discussion of how to make capitalism work better.
avatar
XmXFLUXmX: They hate Capitalism and want to destroy it. That's not making Capitalism better. They are nothing but a bunch of drug addict, lazy, Socialist, criminals. Period. They crap and piss in the streets, they have sex in the open, they break into stores, they are the lowest form of scum on the Earth.
I think that thats quite rough thing to say people who have lost their job and are desperate to get food in table. Sure there might be some rotten apples in the bag but you can't say that they all are bad people.

You can't reason with him. He basically is calling the protestors worse than child molesters and rapist and murders.
Why does anyone even still respond to him? Seriously, he's some disgruntled 16 year old sitting in mommy's basement and chuckling at how bad ass his troll account is.
Occupiers are helping police to catch rapists, child molesters and murderers.

Again, you are judging an entire group based on a select minorities actions. Do you have anything better to do than be an ignorant asshole?
I can easily find news stories about Tea Partiers that are just as bad as those you portray in your post. But I do not think that all Tea Party people (no matter what I think of their ideology) are racists, violent or crazy.
Those were only individual criminals and many news source sites also told that other occypy wallstreet people were helping the police to catch those criminals. Do you watch foxnews?

That answer is quite obvious.
