My definition of "class" doesn't include Madoff or Lupica and his Marx in the Parks buddies.
Allow me to crystalize the liberal and conservative viewpoints of those neither in the park nor in the 1%. Conservatives look at rich people and dream that if we work hard enough, we could be there ourselves someday. The 1% is filled with examples who came from nothing. Strike that: Most of us aren't looking for fantastic wealth. We just want the government to get out of the way, so we can work hard and enjoy the fruits of our own labor. Liberals are either wealthy and believe that most people (particularly women and minorities) are not capable of achieving the same success they themselves have enjoyed, or less than wealthy, and have given up. They want a government to control their lives and hand out free cheese. In case you haven't heard, the truely needy aren't welcome at Liberty Square/Zuccotti park.
Incidently, I worked right by Liberty Square/Zucotti Park (across the street from 1 WTC) ten years ago. I was down there last night. It was raining, so there wasn't much stirring, but I did witness said hippie relieving himself on hallowed ground.
Maggots of a feather, slurp together

Actually, Lupica's right. They do have a coherent message.
They want to take all they can from those that have earned some wealth and give it to those that don't feel like earning anything.
That's it in a nutshell, no matter how much this turdy little sports typist wants to whitewash it.
Gimme. Gimme. Gimme. Or I'll burn the system down.
You don’t have to do much “cherry picking” to make Madoff the centerpiece of an article unabashedly decrying Wall Street shennanigans.
After all he is one of the 50% of shysters who has faced any real retribution.
And it doesn’t take great powers of observation to suspect that Madoffs undoing was that he played his con exclusivly on the 1%.
The more I ponder this, the more I have come to the conclusion that the Obama shill media is trotting Wall Street's Madoff back into the spotlight to rally more support for the Occupy movement. If I'm correct, they've taken using the elderly as a propaganda tool (remember Social Security checks can't go out without a debt limit increase?) to a new, disgusting level. Like his investors haven't suffered enough, already.
