Some of the left-wing sites are pointing out that the big-time media have gotten away from talking about debts and deficits and are talking more about joblessness and economic inequality. That's a good thing and is probably a result of the AWS demonstrations.

Economic inequality? You mean someone who is unwilling to apply themselves or lacks the patience to pay their dues by starting at the bottom, working hard and pulling themselves up?

If that's the cause of the extreme inequality in our economy, then, yes, that's what I mean. Somehow, though, I think there might be more to it than that.

Is the economy challenging for entry level people? YES!

Does this mean that they have the right to take money from the rest of us while they sit on their A$$? NO!

When times are challenging it means a longer, tougher road.

Except for the paid protestors, the ones sitting on their A$$ at the protests are not making any money and are making no effort to do so. They need to go back home and find some work of some kind and put everything they've got into it. Is it easy? NO! Does it mean they might have to haul hay or mow lawns or flip burgers? PROBABLY! I've BTDT and it was HARD, but in the end it did great things for me in many different ways.

Whatever it takes, they need to get off their A$$ and go do SOMETHING productive.

I enjoy the way that some believe that there's a one size, fits all description of not only those affected by the economic crisis, but that there's also a generic way of resolving the crisis.

There is most definitely not one size fits all. We are all different. What SHOULD be common to everyone, however, is WORK! Unless someone is plagued with some sort of ailment, they need to get up off their A$$ and WORK!

Do YOU not work?

You don't know what efforts they have made that brought them to the point that they feel the need to protest. At least they are trying to change things. And things sure need changing, IMHO.

I agree with that part, although maybe they are doing something productive now. At least they aren't sitting at home whining.

Whatever efforts they might have made evidently have not been enough. Go home, find some hay to haul and get started with a respectable life.

Tryinig to change things? What do they want? If they want to change things, go protest in front of the Whitehouse. That's where the potato is stuck in the tailpipe of the economy. Better yet, go home and mow lawns and start showing people that you are willing to work for a living.

No they're not sitting at HOME whining, they're out on the street defacating on police cars while they do their whining.
