Occupiers demands

I for one am thankful for the "Occupy Wall Street" crowd. 

I have been cruising around the internet looking for clips of what they are trying to accomplish and want to share a few with you.

People who make lots of money should be willing to share it with those who don't make enough.  Just think what that would do for poverty in America. Take the poor staving children and give them something to eat. Their parents wouldn't have to worry about them ever going hungry again. 

Another demand is a living wage for all... a figure of over $55,000 has been used for a base line.  Just think about that for a minimum wage.  Based on 2000 hour year that would be somewhere over $25/hr.  I guess that would only be right... most union people make that kind of money, right?  That would only bring up the private sector to the level of the union labors.  Government employees would come up a little also in the process... I mean why not just make them all government employees like Hugo Chaves in Venezuela is trying to do. We have the car companies being taken over, given to the unions to run, why not just make everything government owned and then it can be run and income spread evenly around to all the citizens according to their need.  Who needs commerce?  Who needs capitalism when you have a competent government to provide security for us? All these rich fat cats should just give all their wealth to the government to help with the deficit.  One statistic is that if we conficated all their wealth and deported them... the government could run on it for almost a year.  Maybe it could pay down a little of it's debt, but why do that?  Anyway... next year we could just kick out the new crop of rich fat cats and everyone would be happy. 

Another demand has been to get rid of all the bankers.  They are all a bunch of Jews anyway. They suck money from us at unbelievable rates... I mean anytime a person buys a home and gets money from one of these guys and pays it back over thirty years... they get almost as much as what we paid for the house and they didn't do anything for it. Part of this demand is that all loans be forgiven.  I mean why pay these people back anyway... they don't need our money... they are worth billions already anyway. Just think how much easier life would be if we didn't have them breathing down our necks for money every month.

As the president, I think everyone should make sure they get out to see these people and understand their demands, their needs, I mean wants, so when it comes election time we can cast an intelligent vote by comparing candidates and weighing how close they come to supporting the ideas these people are espousing.  Just think... to each according to his need from each according to his ability.  Wonderful idea.  I think we have a few places around the world where this is working.
