Occupy <insert city here>

I gotta tell you.  I’ve been rather annoyed by these schmucks in the Occupy Wall Street movement since they first came on the scene.  Here’s my problem with them.  They are pissed.  Something is broken.  They want it fixed. 

Ok, I get that.  I agree.  Hell, there are a lot of things that are broken, but these idiots don’t even know what is broken, and they DEMAND that the Government fix it.

HELLO?!?!?!  The GOVERNMENT is what is broken, you  no talent wastes of flesh!  You’re busily pounding out your angry emails on your new MacBook, and texting your buddies to let them know the police are moving their way on your Android smartphone, or maybe your nice shiny new iPhone 4s, or Windows Phone 7. 

You’re busily using all these things that corporations produce, while bitching about those corporations.  You’re demanding the government fix the problems caused by corporations, which by and large are caused by those corporations fighting to try to follow ignorant government regulations.  That’s like asking the ax murder to save you from the ax. 

The plain and simple truth.  Do they have a right to be mad?  Yes.  Should they protest?  Sure, if they feel that strongly about it.  Do they have the right to protest whatever they think is the problem?  Yup.  Do they have the brains God gave a fruit fly?  Nope.  The OWS movement is people by followers who want to be front and center in something important, idiots that don’t have the damnedest clue how the economy works, and left wing nut job agitators that are using this as an excuse to try to bring more things that the government has no business meddling in under government control.  It’s a certainty that there are a few other people in that group, but by and large, these are the Occupiers.

Go occupy an employment line, you morons.  Get out of the street, be productive, and learn something about the world.  When you have a clue, lets come back to this problem and address the cause.  DC will still be there when you’re ready to comprehend, and it will likely suck worse than ever.  Largely thanks to your ignorant efforts giving them a little more power. 

Even as I type this, I’m on a bus in downtown Seattle.  Trying to get home from work.  We’re not going out of our way around a few blocks because of a large group of these morons blocking up the street.  Thanks to you a-holes, I will be late picking up my son today.  I would much rather spend time with my kids than spend time driving around your stupidity in downtown.  So thanks, morons.  Go back to your mommy’s basements and get warm after you’re done marching.
