Occupy Wall Street food servers get sick of the "professional homeless people."

"They know what they’re doing."
For three days beginning tomorrow, the cooks will serve only brown rice and other spartan grub instead of the usual menu of organic chicken and vegetables, spaghetti bolognese, and roasted beet and sheep’s-milk-cheese salad.

They will also provide directions to local soup kitchens for the vagrants, criminals and other freeloaders who have been descending on Zuccotti Park in increasing numbers every day.
What if everyone suddenly got sick of freeloaders?

Ask yourself why you disparage homeless people. Typical conservative with no compassion for the downtrodden, but scream bloody murder when people want to raise the tax rates on the filthy rich a bit.

Anonymous said...

...but aren't the homeless also part of the 99%?

Tragic. The horses are tired of working for the cats, who don't contribute anything, and have taken their case to the pigs. Let me know if they get this resolved before the farmer comes back.

Puh-leeze. The homeless don't know suffering like an unemployed history major from Oberlin. The homeless can live anywhere; they don't have to move back home with their parents.

Roasted beet and sheeps-milk-cheese salad?

I'm not surprised to link up the Occupy folks with the "Slow Food" folks.

Why do you continue to mock and demean these brave souls who are risking their lives to speak the truth to power?

You conservatives are so mean and nasty.

All they have to do is close their borders and put up a fence.

Other than that, people protesting for freebies, getting mad because others are taking their freebies makes me LOL!

Tyrone Slothrop said...

A moment of satori for the #OWS apparatchiks. They now know what the homeless are up to. Turns out, it's exactly what the #OWS are up to, viz.; take from those who have more than you-- you are justified because they have more than you.

Oh the delicious irony...

Apparently, most of these Occupy squatters are too young to remember the victim-de-jour from the 80's, the homeless.

Excuse me, could you please pass the Bolognese?....and the grated cheese.

You people do not understand how hard these brave young people have been working taking a stand against the rich, corporations, FOX News, Rupert Murdoch, the Kochs, progressive jews, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin and people who wash more than once a week and use up too much of the earths vital resources.

Do not mock them. You evil, evil people.

Utterly disgusting.

We need a government program to do something about this!!

Occupy Wall Street sent 20k and 100 tents to Occupy Oakland. LOL.

Actually, they are against the bottom .5 percent and the top .5 percent. As a result, they remain the "99 percent".

Well, this is a shocking revelation.

Gift certificates to Mickey D's would keep them out of sight and feed them too. That's pretty much their policy, it seems. Except for the feeding part.

Michael said...

Now wait a Goddamn minute! Are you telling me that I am one of the 99% but you are going to direct me to a fucking soup kitchen? WTF!

The food servers are part of the 1% of OWS and they are tiring of working their asses off for people who are not contributing. What is worse and not mentioned here, but the food service people have to go begging for the money for their food from the finance people who have the reins on the $500,000 in the OWS bank accounts. The OWS entity, making over 500K, qualifies as being a part of the 1% club which has a cutoff of $360,000 per year. It is all so horrible.

DADvocate said...

I wonder what evil corporation got the profit off those tents.

Maybe they can pass the tents on to the homeless and set up a food line for them.

Mmmm, brown rice and muffin stems.

Of course they will not comprehend that this a metaphor for the many who feed at the Federal trough at the expense of others.

Anonymous said...

And so where exactly is all the money coming from that pays for all this good food? Who exactly thinks this whole OWS is a good enough thing to part with cold hard cash? Are their financiers keeping them on a daily allowance?

So they're now a besieging force? Rather than petition their governments for redress of grievances, they are besieging private citizens going about their business?

I guess they learned from the Tea Party, that you can fill the National Mall multiple times with hundreds of thousands, and our government will just bite its thumb at them. So these OWS'ers are pursuing revolution. Wow! From cooked meals, to revolution, quite a stretch.

It dipped to 23℉ last night and it snowed.

Here is DenverPost photo set of the Mile High Occupation dealing with the weather. This is two blocks north on my side of the street. It looks like a proper mess.

In empathy to their hardship I'm keeping the patio door opened a crack.

Audie Murphys Mom said...

Many of these brave protestors are veterans and I think that they could just live off the land.

The Navy Seals that are in OWS could maybe catch a few pigeons or rats and make a tasty stew. Plus I bet their are plenty of very nourishing insects living in the clothing of some of these brave souls who are fighting for us the 99%.

Mother Gaia presents her bounty to anyone who looks.

Unknown said...

Maybe we should let the OWS occupations continue--the dissenters are finding out the hard way all about Real Life. And it's high time--they sure didn't learn it in college.

The nonsense of treating the "homeless" as minority victims and not as mentally ill/addicts/criminals is falling apart before their idealistic eyes.

Carol_Herman said...

Oh, get real! The publicity brought out the "chefs," who work the camera angles.

And, FREE FOOD should bring everybody! (But make business bad for those folk who pay their rents. And, depend on office workers who get hungry.)

At first? It was just "free pizza."

I'm sure, then came the drug dealers giving out free samples.

And, the "drummer boys."

Then came the razor blades, that damaged some of the drums. Where the "socialist drummers" discovered they wouldn't get new equipment.

Plus, the wake up call to all the politicians ... who know the problem for them is bigger than the size of the Wall Street's media herd.

The "price" of attention is not always positive.

Let alone the "1% of bankers" are laughing their heads off at knowing these idiots have not found the corridor to power.

???

Unless you think this "occupation" works.

Where it doesn't even "work" on a resume.

If being behind the OWS movement means you can't use any goods created by a corporation, then Tea Party folks should not drive on roads or call the police-- those are funded by taxes.

But I don't really think that. Because I'm not a cretinous idiot. So why don't you all give the "They're using iPhones LOL" thing a rest. You sound so monotonously stupid.

I should have gone down to the ows encampments in Cincinnati during lunch times. I could have shown my solidarity with them and gotten free food. Jeez, I sure missed out on an opportunity to stick to the rich.

Perhaps you've missed the videos (I know of at least one that went viral) of college kids/graudates asking for their tuition to be paid!

Is that not a hand-out?

Michael said...

franglo: au contraire! The OWS has called for jubilee, the eradication of all debts. Is that not a "hand out?" In their tireless rants about the wrongful "distribution" of wealth do they not suggest that those that have should be relieved of some of it for the benefit of those who have less? Or are they just mad at Wall Street and don't want anything in the way of retribution?

Wanting taxation to resume the structure it had during many prosperous years is "freeloading"? Dwight Eisenhower was a freeloader? Being angry that banks propped up by the government turn around and distribute "historic profits" to a small group of bankers in the form of bonuses is freeloading? Wanting to preserve an American middle class and not move to the Nigerian "1% super wealthy behind barbed wire while everyone else is a pauper" model is endorsing freeloading?

OH RLY? So that $500K, how fast do you think it will evaporate, providing food, shelter, and amenities to several hundred folks…if you or OWS don’t think it will disappear in just a few months, you are fooling yourself….

And tell me, Garage, is OWS returning the money, donated in “excess” or giving any to NYC for the increased Police Presence, required? Or reimbursing the city for the services used, sewers, power, water? How about they take some of that money and reimburse the neighborhood businesses for loss of income and inconvenience from the horde camped out? How about reimbursing or spending the money on “Community improvement” projects for the residents, to make the life with OWS more bearable? That money could be used to defray a lot of costs and hassles, how about it, Garage? Or is OWS’ money OWS, and not someone else’s…doesn’t seem very “other regarding” in fact, I seems to be very much self-regarding, very much like the people they complain about, use NYC’s water for free, keep the money for you…you know “publicizing” costs, but privatizing gains?

Actually you make a very bad argumentation and understanding awareness error…You are being told you don’t understand the TEA Party, or you wouldn’t be saying what you’re saying…whilst we are saying, “Yes, we’ve read the signs, heard the speeches, seen the manifestos” and so yes, the Occupy(City) Movement IS Marxist, redistributionist, smelly and dirty…whereas YOU don’t bother actually understanding what you’ve seen of the TEA Party. YOU are ignoring the evidence, WE are perceiving the evidence.

Of course I have also been to at least the Occupy Boston encampment and just by being in the vicinity I can tell you that it is indeed dirty and smelly there (very obvious to any passerby). And if you read the signs you can easily conclude the redistibutionist mentality prevalent throughtout the group. There are plenty of socialist and marxist statements on signs as well.

Funny thing is that I bet you haven't been anywhere near a TEA party rally and can only describe them based off of MSNBC's and Kos's descriptions.

"OWS has not called for any handouts."

Beginning a sentence with 'I want' usually denotes at the very least a 'request'.

Fact is, Franglo, those people that you defend don't operate in a vacuum. They obviously didn't get the message when mom and dad told them that 'beggars can't be choosers'.

There are stories now replete with examples of behavior more in-line with that of 4 legged creatures.

Some people never grow up. These are adult babies looking for a teat. Pity, they probably don't know better and I would venture to say that they are likely a product of our wonderful education 'system'.

Does this meaning you’re running off now? So reading the Manifesto from Occupy Wall Street and seeing things like Debt Forgiveness, and $20 an hour living wage is NOT evidence, hey dood/doodette YOUR side produced it…and so all those interviews and video from Occupy(City) wherein we see Marxist signs, propaganda, persons, and calls for the “Revolution” and all those interviews and confrontations with the Occupy(City) and their human microphones, that’s not “EVIDENCE”? I’m sorry I thought it was….you know things I see, read, and hear…I thought that was pretty much the definition of “evidence.”

Oh God Michael-- and if the Bush tax cuts expire, the income tax rate will move from 35% to 39% or something like that? To pay for the war in Iraq you were cheering for in 2001 to kick the Arabs' ass? Medicare Part D which was never funded? Oh and the loss in revenue precipitated by the slef-inflicted meltdown of the financial system thanks to banker geniuses like yourself?

Of course we could find revenue by cutting all social assistance, which is communist. The poor will eat each other, taking care of hunger and excess poverty in one stroke. Or just tax the shit out of the people who don't make enough money to be taxed now. Not because it will cover the debt gap. Just because it's mean. Poor people who don't pay taxes because they have no money are surely hiding a lot of revenue. Somewhere.

We should do the second thing, naturally. How will the upper tax bracket possibly survive??? Who weeps for the six-figure income, "I don't FEEL really rich" people???

Alex said...

franglo - why do you invoke the 1950s? America had manufacturing all to itself for 20 years because Europe & Japan were wrecked from WW2. Also America ravaged by Jim Crow and racism. IS that what you want to return to?

franglo - the rich will just find more tax shelters in the Cayman Islands and less jobs will be created. Don't worry about them, they'll be fine.

Farrow noted that some African Americans may find some of the “Occupy” leaders’ rhetoric offensive. He said protesters have compared America’s troubled economy to modern-day slavery, and big business to slave masters.
“To say that we’re slaves to corporations trivializes the brutality of chattel slavery,” he said.
And the movement’s “99 percent” idea, Farrow explained, may unintentionally exclude minorities.
“What we end up with is a movement that is speaking very much to issues around the ‘middle class,’ which just leaves out throngs of people who are poor

Carnifex said...

Ignore Franglo. Ignore the OWS too. They are dying and they know it. You are witnessing the death throws of the Leftist movement in the world. It will take decades but their time has come, and gone.

Nature abhors a vacuum though. In the death of liberalism we witness the birth of totalitarianism. And while death takes time, birth is bloody and quick, and violent.

I fear when we look out at the tent cities of OWS we see into the future. The future of Barrys Amerika, where all pain is shared equally. Except for the elites. You all know the quotes, I shan't repeat them.

Democracy is not attractive to utopians. It requires work, and thought, and most sadly, the depravity of the human condition. For Socialism, and Communism to work, all people who engage in it must be saints. Or the founding principles of sharing are violated.

But we KNOW all people are not saints. So we know socialism and communism cannot work. Now it is a matter of getting people to acknowledge their Utopian ideals as unworkable.

In trusting in the "invisible hand" of capitalism, applying it to democracy, we can see that individual self interest will drive a society forward to the betterment of all. "A rising tide lifts all boats" said JFK.

Is it perfect? No, of course not. Why would anyone expect imperfect beings to construct a perfect society. What it does do is allows each and every person to rise to their level of imperfection.

I ask Garage, and Franglo, what could be more fair than that?

But the birth that's coming. It is going to tear our world apart, bursting forth in a hail of bullets and blood, and utopians.

Do you really think the elites are going to allow their privileges be shared with the hoi polloi? When the word comes down, to the police, to the armed sevices, who are they going to obey? We saw what happened after Katrina. We saw what happened at Kent State, Tienammin Square. To all you people supporting OWS, be careful what you wish for...

Would you care to discuss the AVERAGE unemployment under Bush versus the average under Obama? And why not a lower Cap Gains rate? It’s already been taxed once, Franglo!

Michael said...

Franglo: I do pay capital gains when I have a capital gain. You do know what that is don't you? And you do know that it is a voluntary tax do you not? That is it is paid when one voluntarily sells and asset that qualifies for capital gains treatment. You should bone up on economics, dude, if you are going to be running an economy after the revolution.

PS: There was a time, a long time, when I was in the bottom 25%. You do know, do you not, that you can move out of these income categories both up and down? I have been in the 1% and out of the 1%. I have been in the bottom 25% but I am not planning to go back. Most people in the bottom do not stay there long. Over the course of ten years only 14% of the people in the bottom 25% are there for the duration.

But hey the TP is the violent group not OWS. I mean one TP person brought a gun to a rally (legally no less!!!). Whereas all the Occupy people have done is riot and attack police.

I happened by the Minneapolis version of this today, the first time I'd seen it. First, it was quite apparent that these folks don't exactly have a high opportunity cost for their time, if you know what I mean. Second, it is pathetic. Not large enough to "occupy" the plaza around the County building, let alone anything meaningful.

The Republicans have two ways they can win the White House next year: One (and this seems increasingly unlikely) find a decent candidate. Two: Make enough donations to sustain this movement for another 11 months or so. OWS is the face of the left, so they might as well have it front and center.

Really? Did Obama Party shills Franglo and Garage whine about people here not paying their taxes?

Point out that their Barack Obama himself says his staffers don't have to pay their taxes.

Point out that their Barack Obama Party's leaders like Charles Rangel, Tim Geithner, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, Hilda Solis, Kathleen Sebelius, Tom Daschle, and others don't pay their taxes.

And then point out how their pet billionaires like Warren Buffett and George Soros don't pay their taxes.

So Franglo and Garage are complete and total hypocrites and liars who don't want to pay their "fair share", just like the rest of their Obama Party.

RonF said...

I guess they learned from the Tea Party, that you can fill the National Mall multiple times with hundreds of thousands, and our government will just bite its thumb at them.

At which point the Tea Party left the National Mall, picking up their own trash along the way I might add, and went home. And passed nominating petitions and staffed phone banks and knocked on doors and helped push about 3 score candidates into office, causing the biggest turnover in both number and percentage the House of Representatives has ever seen and stopped President Obama's policy plans dead in their tracks. OWS wants to persuade the govenment to change. The Tea Party changed the government. Think that the OWS will have much influence in electing new people to government?

How so? TeaPartyers pay their taxes for those services, they just don't want to pay more taxes to "stimulate" too big-to-fail WallStreet fat cats, to bail out home "owners" so they could stay in homes they couldn't afford, or students who borrowed to finance a useless "education", or billionaires to finance their failing Solyndras, or car companies whose cars nobody wants to buy. How many more firefighters and police officers could we hire with the $535 million to billionaire Kaiser's Solyndra, and the 3/4 billion to Pelosi's brother-in-law?

franglo, the "Bush tax cuts" did expire. Nearly a year ago. The current tax cuts are the Obama tax cuts.

And the things that Obama wants to spend upon and not pay for are about double what Bush spent in deficit. That's why four years of Obama will create as much debt as eight years of Bush.

So Bush was twice as fiscally responsible.
