The "Occupy Wall Street" protesters have listed 13 proposed demands from their website.
Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be met by ending "Freetrade" by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported goods entering the American market to level the playing field for domestic family farming and domestic manufacturing as most nations that are dumping cheap products onto the American market have radical wage and environmental regulation advantages. Another policy that must be instituted is raise the minimum wage to twenty dollars an hr.
Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system.
Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.
Demand four: Free college education.
Demand five: Begin a fast track process to bring the fossil fuel economy to an end while at the same bringing the alternative energy economy up to energy demand.
Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now.
Demand seven: One trillion dollars in ecological restoration planting forests, reestablishing wetlands and the natural flow of river systems and decommissioning of all of America's nuclear power plants.
Demand eight: Racial and gender equal rights amendment.
Demand nine: Open borders migration. anyone can travel anywhere to work and live.
Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an independent and party observers system.
Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all.
Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies.
Demand thirteen: Allow all workers to sign a ballot at any time during a union organizing campaign or at any time that represents their yeah or nay to having a union represent them in collective bargaining or to form a union.

Why bother to work at all? While they’re at it, I want guaranteed non-fattening chocolate ice cream that tastes exactly like fattening chocolate ice cream. After all, it’s a “human right”. ;)
15. Free Upsidazium for all.
Why didn’t they just make it simple and ask for communism? That is what I see as I read the “demands”.
Sorta defeats free college for everyone, doesn’t it.
I made comments about those DEMANDS at Wednesday Rush Thread — Post 68 I believe.
Demand 1: Raise minimum wage to $20/hr.
Demand 3: Pay everyone minimum wage whether they have a job or not.
Demand 9: Open the borders officially to all comers.
How could this possibly not work?
Demand no. 20... free skittles
Demand no. 21.... Free Barney the dinosaur snuggies.
The wish list of a million dumb*** spoiled brat college students who haven’t a clue what “real” life is all about!
Meh...
f’n pathetic. it embarrasing what they feel they need or are entitled to.
at least in the middle east, they are trying to get rid of goverments that are happy to kill them if the population gets in the way. the idiots here just want someone else to pay their way. its like the rest of the world is trying to live, and these brats want someone to fluff their pillow.
“Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.”
Lazy bunch of maggot invested pukes!
I will REVOLT before this happens! Not going to happen unless they want a freaking WAR!
We will trade our fossil fuels for rainbows and unicorns...like...tomorrow.
If you think that is embarrassing guess who is joining them now?!
Transit Union in New York joins them today for their little march!
