Bullshit.

The only entity that can forcefully take anything is government itself.
No coroporation can legally physically force you to buy their products or services, work for them or do business with them in any way if you do not wish to do so. Government can (and does) do that.

And your straw man position as to what conservative's positions are on rent seekers is also bullshit.

"That was easy!"


Well you are wrong as usual.

The Nashville Occupiers voted to "support" the Occupy Wall Street group in NY.

Among the things the OWS group has advocated is forgivness of student loans and/or ALL debt. Just as I explicitily mentioned in a previous post.

That is rent seeking and since the Nashville Occupiers have proclaimed that they support the OWS New York crowd, that makes them rent seekers as well.

Now THAT was easy.

What is revealing is that you are so devoid of logic to think that posting a story about Federal Reserve activity somehow proves that the occupiers aren't rent seekers.

I'd rather be a nutjob than a blind authoritarian any day.

"Whether or not Samuel Adams helped plan the Boston Tea Party is unknown, but he immediately worked to publicize and defend it. He argued that the Tea Party was not the act of a lawless mob, but was instead a principled protest and the only remaining option the people had to defend their constitutional rights."

"The No 1 agenda item: get the money out of politics. Most often cited was legislation to blunt the effect of the Citizens United ruling, which lets boundless sums enter the campaign process.

No busting heads took place, and as a matter of fact, the Troopers
only pulled the little darling arm holders apart, so don't be
making this an exaggerated Bull Conner comparison! So much
truly silly talk about both the Governor and the :"cause" is as
muddled in these postings as is on the Plaza!

While we're at it, let's take a moment to find out what other activities this "Counselor" enjoys partaking in (Perjury? Wrongful convictions?).
