This is pretty cool. This could make Occupy more formidable because when was the last time cops brutalized the tea party? Never. |

Right wing protests what they perceive to be corporate influence over government, liberals call them racist. Left wing protests what they perceive to be corporate influence over government, conservatives call them communists and cops beat them up. The difference between the right and left solutions is that the left wants to ban the presence of money in government so that it's no longer the rich having the most powerful votes, the right wants to ban the government's power to do things which creates the incentive for corporations to try and influence the government in their favor in the first place. The diagnosis is generally the same- the proposed solutions are where the differences occur. |

Those in the "left wing" seem to favor exploiting the citizens of this country whereas those in the "right wing" seem to favor exploitation of those in other countries. But really, both wings are heavily engaged in both. |

No argument? Just telling me stop eh? I'm referring to the left-wing trend of supporting welfare and the right-wing trend of supporting war, but like I said, both wings seem to support both. |

How is redistribution of wealth EXPLOITATION? Forcing wealthy people to give a few bucks to the poor is exploitation... Go figure. These poor rich people that are looted by the evil guys in Washington... Man stop with your ideological ignorance and start thinking... Without any form of redistribution of wealth you would much likely be a very poor and illiterate guy. Look at the freaking REAL world! The world is not only black and white. There is also a fucking grey. |
