Occupy Wall Street Miffed by “Freeloaders”
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 29 Oct 2011 | John Semmens

Posted on 10/30/2011 11:39:50 AM PDT by John Semmens

The protest on Wall Street is chafing under an unwanted “infiltration from below.” It seems that while the focus of the protest has been aimed at transferring wealth from the 1% above to the “deserving” 99% below, uninvited lower echelons of the 99%–namely the homeless vagrants that infest many American cities are showing up for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Sharla Tane, one of the Occupy Wall Street cooking staff, complained that “our hard work is being filched by spongers looking for a free meal.” The problem isn’t prejudice, Tane insisted. “I mean, we’re not against government helping the poor. In fact, that’s one of our demands. But it’s not our job.”

“This protest is for people to express their revolutionary consciousness, to promote the transformation of America that President Obama promised,” Tane argued. “These bums don’t know anything about revolution. They can’t tell the difference between proletariat and provolone. They’re just here to take our food.”

Refusing to serve the homeless interlopers is problematic. At this stage of the protest many of the genuine revolutionaries are quite aromatic and disheveled—living in tents, going without bathing and defecating in the streets. Distinguishing them from the filthy homeless is no easy task. Even when such distinctions can be made there is the risk that those denied free food may just decide to seize it themselves—an outcome that the revolutionaries would find it hard to condemn given the “eat the rich” rhetoric they’ve been spouting.

In related news, Massachusetts Democratic senatorial candidate Elizabeth Warren claims she is the brain behind the Occupy Wall Street movement. “I created the intellectual foundation behind what they are doing,” Warren boasted. “Redistributing wealth from the rich to the poor—that was my idea. Giving people free stuff instead of making them pay for everything—that was my idea, too.” Warren asked for the state’s voters to elect her to replace Senator Scott Brown so that “I can help make these great ideas the law of the land.”

Psst!

It's no longer "Occupy Wall Street" or "Occupy [Wherever]".

It's:

Obamaville

Pass the meme along.

This stuff just writes itself doesn't it.

Seems like they are experiencing the challenges of governing, leadership and social justice. Unfortunately, they do not seem to be taking away the lessons of how difficult it is to balance and maintain their socialistic credoswhen everyone is not a contributing member.

Wait a minute!

You mean it ain't REALLY 99%, but maybe 98% or 97% ?

I mean, the rapists and riff-raff, if not part of "us", and certainly not part of the 1% ... then the riff-raff HAVE to be taken from the 99%

Popcorn anyone?

I started out with one hummingbird feeder on my patio. I am now up to three 1-quart bottles that I have to refill every day. I call them my “little welfare recipients.” Yes, if you build it they will come. The cost of sugar is high and my neighbors have evidently stopped feeding them.

But, couldn't they arrange to have tattoos put on their foreheads so the homeless wouldn't be getting their food?

Listen Witch, what's the difference between bums parasiting your food and you parasiting the hard-earned tax dollars of working citizens?

But it’s not our job.”

This is funny. All that they need now to have some wacko judge rule that it is their job and they can not turn anyone away who claims to be hungry. Then they’ll really go bonkers when they get sued by a group of attorneys for discrimination or other charges.
