Ignore it, just more daddys basement filthy pinko liberals who don't know what's best for them. Gordon Gekko capitalism is great. The number of people sleeping under bridges, is a positive indicator in today capitalistic society. The Dow Jones goes up with the poverty level. You might be starving, but the "bottom line" is healthy.

I mean, if it was 2 people with signs I could understand everyone discounting it.

Multiple cities in the USA and overseas? Ah, it's nothing, Lets just keep privatizing the profits, and socializing the losses, then turn around and call the other side communist when they get mad at corporate welfare.

Use your brains, dont let your favorite news source make up your minds for you. Don't let your favorite political party do it either. They are into self preservation and do not represent you.

I don't think Steed was looking for a lecture on what to do. He was just saying they'd spread to Europe.

Whats your point besides to poke at me, did I unwittingly hit a nerve?
