These imbeciles are just as dumb as we thought. Occupy Wall Street protesters posted a proposed list of demands on their website today.
Thankfully, most American fifth graders aren’t this stupid.
From the Occupy Wall Street website, via Picket and Loesch:
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. To do this all private insurers must be banned from the healthcare market as their only effect on the health of patients is to take money away from doctors, nurses and hospitals preventing them from doing their jobs and hand that money to wall st. investors.
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. 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.
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.
These demands will create so many jobs it will be completely impossible to fill them without an open borders policy.
Unreal. So who put this together for them anyway?… Van Jones?… Media Matters?
“Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system”
And there’s where the donkey shows the tail.
Is MY full length chinchilla coat in that list anywhere??
Thanks to QE, QE2, QE3, and Obama’s shockingly reckless deficit spending, a $20 minimum wage will soon be a pay cut in real terms. One way or another, the statist liberals will learn that money only has value because of production. You cannot decree a wage that is not being earned, nor can you spend wealth that is not being created.
waterhose these morons....
We have gone from “Could Obama be a socialist?” To a full throated cry for socialist revolution, income redistribution, racial unrest, and environmental radicalism - all of it led by Obama and his democrat marxist fellow travelers like Durbin.
Is anyone noticing Obama is tripling down on going far left?
demand 21;
Free pop-tarts and fruit loops in every dorm !!!!
Leave it to progressives and socialists/communists to continue to destroy this country.
Additionally, given this lot has absolutely no frakin clue, $20 minimum wage would take job growth in this country from ZERO into the negatives. Clueless Cloward and Piven wannabes.... =.=
If only they had a water hose that automatically emitted a soap mixture.
Did the white house release these?
It sure looks like it.
(since when do protesters demand infrastructure spending? and most of the other Dem. talking points? This is about as astroturf as it gets!)
All the demonstrators are brilliant, supremely bright, absolutely intelligent, all-knowing human beings who know everything, who can run anything, who can bring society to true perfection.
/Sarcasm/

All their demands coincidently sound just like the national level democrat party. And the cpusa. And the media.
But no dim politician will be seen with them. This is all just staged political theater so that the rats can say, “see, the people demand all these things.” And conveniently, van jones is hosting some kind of commie conference in dc next week. van jones has george soros financial backing and is close to baraq.
The baraq gang is pushing from the top down while organizing their own zombies to push from the bottom up.
Not so sure about “international standards”, but demand 10 doesn’t sound bad at all.

I only have one demand :)
Jail all the “Occupy Wall Street Protesters” in a work compound...they know what GULAG means... and have them fix the roads and sewers that have fallen apart because the entitlement checks they receive have emptied the coffers.
These guys are so cheap... $20/hr minimum wage? I’ll show them what generosity is like... I demand $30/hr ( I got plenty of numbers ).
It’s hard to even respond to those demands. I guess my first reaction is where is the demand for free pizza and beer anytime you want it?
