Crack down on Occupy protest a prelude to Super-Committee report
Edited on Wed Nov-16-11 05:32 AM by FreakinDJ
Some news reports and a fair amount of speculation (at least on my part) that the coordinated Coast to Coast eviction of Occupy protesters is merely a precursor to the Budget Super Committee Report due out later this month. Make sense since most likely there is going to be plenty of recommendations in the report worthy of Hard Working Americans to take to the streets over.

Last thing you want to do is piss off a lot of people when they have a place to go and a coordinated effort to vent their anger

You don't want a ready made protest when you serve up a BIG plate of "Fuck You" to the Working Class Americans

5. Working Class Heros
I can just see the Wealthy elite sitting around their lavish dining tables discussing the protesters

"American Working class ? - Are not these the same people who defeated Hitler's Army in europe and pushed back the Japanese Imperial forces 4000 miles across the Pacific ??

"Oh right you are Wilfred. Perhaps I should place a phone call to Eric in the morning"
