@carnivorous
not trying to butt in on your penis waving contest (ok.yes i am).
but i think what some here are trying to convey to you are your broad generalizations.

i am sure your points do apply to some of the younger generation but in no way represents ALL of them.

i am getting long in the greys and i know MANY of my generation that expend far too much energy on:social networks,candy crush and full out gossip and complaining (good lord do they complain).

i know this is veering off topic,but its a worthy topic.

my boys are in their twenties.they all are hard workers of the manual persuasion but they are all having a hard go.
this happens and the times are not ripe for an easy run.
do you know what bothers me the most about watching my boys struggle?
the fear.
they are afraid,uncertain and unsure.
when i was their age i was fearless.

when i was their age i was working for my friend who was a lighting director for russell simmons.def jam summer fest world tour baby!
traveled all over the country and the carribean,duffle bag in tow.
learned how to coil cable right proper too.

ok.not at first.
totally screwed that up the first night.
so my buddy made me unravel every inch of cable (even the ones done right by him and others) and learned the hard way how to coil cable proper.
you have any idea how MUCH cable is used for lighting?
well neither do i but im gonna go in measurements of miles (or hours of lost sleep,you decide).

i guess my point is (if i even have one):
manual labor has its advantages but so do intellectual pursuits.
they actually compliment each other.

but dont judge this generation too harshly.
they are afraid,
and uncertain.
something we (or at least I) never really had to deal with on that scale.

and so ends my rambling incoherent rant.
think ill go fix that broken screen door i have been putting off for ages.
yall got me in the mood to fix something.

Ironic post is ironic.

You refute my "talking points" with a huffpost article, of all things, largely written by Russell Simmons himself?

His card is crap and does indeed exploit poor people with shady fees and little long term benefit.

What? Do you have a Rush Card? If it's so great, why not get one?>> ^Trancecoach:

Gee, @longde, you've got some nerve spouting someone else's talking points before doing the research needed to realize that it's not the conflict of interest that you think it is.
>> ^longde:
Russell "Rush Card" Simmons has some nerve to talk about OWS while peddling a financial product that screws over poor people.

I did not know about that.
Thanks, @longde

None of the above.

The #OWS must next evolve, and I think it will.

Go from an "occupy" movement to a "general strike" movement. If we can organize a few hundred people to meet at random and dance to a version of Michael Jackson's Thriller, then we can organize ourselves to make sure 100,000 people coincidentally "call in sick" when and where it is most strategic to our goals.

We can cause more damage to our enemies (I use that word specifically) by choosing not to participate in their exploitive system on a large scale basis. The ultimate goal is to be able to shut down this country at will, until the GOP starts sitting at the bargaining table.

The movement may ebb and flow...but I don't think it's going away.

Too many of us are hurting too badly to pretend all is well.

Austerity is not an option: tax the rich, end the wars, invest in America.

Above all, as Russell Simmons said, get money out of Washington.
