RE: Where the minimum wage is $20, a glass of beer costs $10. I’ve seen it for myself (Copenhagen).

Shakespeare was right, something is rotten in Denmark.... and I wonder how much a gallon og gasoline costs.

Up till now this thing has been the punchline to a bad joke.

I don’t expect that to continue. The Left cannot stand to be held up for ridicule. I expect the unions to start showing up en-masse and for some serious violence to ensue.

10 years ago, the photoshopped pictures would have been all we saw

And the media would have proclaimed that AMERICA has spoken! We want socialism!

Now (Thank GOD for Fox news and the internet) we see them for what they are- brain dead morons.

Fox had an interview with some of them and they are too stupid to be allowed to walk free. (Except for that blonde ‘indian’ chick- I will believe anything she wants me to believe!!!)

Once again, they never demanded all this stupid stuff in 2009 and 2010 when Pelosi ran the House with Obama in the WH.

That's because they thought they were going to actually get their demands met (by the WH and Pelosi) and didn't need to bray like jackasses about it.

It’s not like they planned it or anything. This is a grass roots uprising (didn’t you read the NYTimes). Not like the corporate funded Tea party (I actually think they believe this nonsense).

I am so glad the Tea Party happened. it shows the glaring contrast between a REAL “grass roots” uprising and this Soros funded crap (pardon my french).

This list seems redundant. Once you do this:

Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all. Debt forgiveness of sovereign debt, commercial loans, home mortgages, home equity loans, credit card debt, student loans and personal loans now! All debt must be stricken from the “Books.” World Bank Loans to all Nations, Bank to Bank Debt and all Bonds and Margin Call Debt in the stock market including all Derivatives or Credit Default Swaps, all 65 trillion dollars of them must also be stricken from the “Books.” And I don’t mean debt that is in default, I mean all debt on the entire planet period.

Then there’s no need for this:
Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies.

Who would continue to ever loan money to anyone?

RE: Demand four: Free college education.

Which leads to the next question -— FREE FOR WHO?

Who’s going to pay? Or do they intend for all colleges and universities to be owned by the state?

I’d love to turn that one around on them!

“Free college for everyone - and no fat-cat college professors are “allowed” to earn more than $50,000

Knowlege should be free for everyone”

And those greedy professors should be allowed to ‘profit’ from knowlege.”

Why not $100 per hour and 4 weeks guaranteed vacation?

I’ll raise you to $200/hr and 6 weeks guaranteed vacation.

In the words of Chico Marx, “I got plenty higher numbers.”

I had these same thoughts when I was about six years old, I said I thought everything should be free. My father set me straight, it was the first time I ever hear the word communism. I still remember how he, who was always so gentle and kind to me, was outraged that I would even have such thoughts.

My Mom and Step-Father set me straight on the same subject. Mom said, "there is no such thing as government money, it is all taxpayer's money". That's not all she said but I have always remembered that line the best.

Winter will be fast approaching. Perhaps some early snow falls in mid late fall will occur. I wonder if they plan on having an UPS truck deliver them snow shoes and sterno cans.

The $20 an hour isn’t for them. They don’t work.

$20 minimum wage?

lol

these idiots must want 20% unemployment.

They've addressed that particular problem.

From their list:

Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.
Apparently, the unemployed are to continue getting that wage even though they're not working.

I also have thirteen demands but they are all the same: STFU you unwashed punks and get out of your parent’s basement and get a real job.

I have to admit, from most pictures I’ve seen, at least this time they’ve got better looking female protestors than before.

At least some of them.
