    The Occupy Wall Street crowd sees this as a problem with capitalism. I believe that they are correct in their target, but wrong in their diagnosis. This is not a problem of capitalism since Wall Street is a practitioner of monetarism. A real capitalist system works through real intermediation creating positive opportunities for productive enterprises (scarce money is actually vital here). Our current system of repo-to-maturity and gold leasing is nothing but empty monetarism’s habit of regularly forcing the circulation of empty paper. And when the system begins to doubt itself, as it did in 2008, the answer is always about finding a way to restart the fractional maximization process yet again, which means disguising the real risks inherent to that process. There is no real mystery as to why prices and values have seen such a divergence, and why that is a big problem to a system that depends on appearances.

    Check out one of the protesters Reason.tv spoke to at Occupy Wall Street in Los Angeles on October 12, 2011. She identifies herself as Patricia McAllister and as an employee of Los Angeles Unified School District.“I think that the Zionist Jews, who are running these big banks and our Federal Reserve, which is not run by the federal government. . . . they need to be run out of this country,” she said.


    reason.tv

    Poor woman is going to get fired soon ?
    Much more has happened related to LA teacher Patricia McAllister. She is striking at the root of the West's economic woes: the Rothschild-Zionist Global Usury Empire- and that is why she was punished for exercising the USA's alleged "FREE SPEECH". I haven't read the whole thread so forgive any redundancy.

    Patricia McAllister - Fired
    LAUSD School Teacher - Update
    From Patricia McAllister
    10-23-11

    What I have experienced less than a week ago, (Tuesday, October 18, 2011) has been unbelievable. Let me start from the beginning.

    As you might remember, I was posting, asking teachers to come to Occupy LA with our cause about the firing and mistreatment of teachers. That is what I did. I made a sign about teachers losing their jobs, and about money being stolen from teachers, and I took my lawn chair and sat on the grounds of city hall, like many other citizens...seniors, young, and old.

    I was approached by a reporter who said he wanted to ask me some questions. He had a camera crew guy with him to take the video. The interview was about 5 minutes long. After the interview I forgot about it. I think the interview took place on Friday, October 14, 2011. On Monday morning, October 17, I started getting calls on my cell phone with such comments as "we support you", and some not so nice comments. I did not know WHAT was going on. I then went on the web and I started looking around the web, and I found the Occupy LA video! I was shocked.

    I had an assignment to teach at a high school on subfinder. A school requested me for a future assignment. I then decided to go to subfinder to check the assignment, and I got the message, "your status is inactive, contact your supervisor." I then knew that something was brewing.

    I called the Subunit, and I was transferred to a supervisor. She asked me to call upstairs to Ira Berman, Director of Employee Relations. I called and we decided that I should come into the office to speak to Mr. Berman.

    When I got to headquarters on Beautry, I was escorted into Mr. Berman's office, along with his assistant. Mr. Berman gave me his business card, and he said that I no longer had a job with the district, that I was dismissed. I asked him why, and he said that he could not talk about it. I then asked him for the pink slip, and he said that he did not have one. I was in his office no more than 45 seconds.

    This happened to be the same day that the Occupy LAUSD rally was held. I did not realize that until afterwards. I went to the supply store and I bought some sign boards and I stood in front of Beaudry. News reporters saw me and ran up to me saying that they heard I was fired, and they interviewed me...Fox news and KTLA. I have also had interviews with other news media.

    One might ask why this is such a hot topic. Well, anytime you mention the Zionist Jews and their ownership of the printing of our money, and their ownership of the Federal Reserve Bank, you will get a lot of static. Remember Helen Thomas and Rich Sanchez? All they did was mention Jews, and they were fired.

    The statement that I made was true. I will never apologize or back down from my statement. This matter concerning our Federal Reserve Bank being privately owned has been a concern of mine for years. Congress does not even have the authority to audit the Federal Reserve Bank!

    I will have extensive history of the Federal Reserve Bank in the near future for the world to read. Experts have also said that if the printing of America's money is turned over to the Treasury, through the Congress, that the U.S. could be out of debt within a year! Do you see, the mismanagement and the printing of America's money by the Feds is the reason why we as Americans are suffering today! This is why what I said is causing such a stir.

    The Zionist Jewish bankers who started the Feds started the IRS within months of the Fed's beginning. The Fed buys U.S. debt with money they printed from nothing (trees), then charges the U.S. taxpayers interest. The government had to create income tax to pay the interest expense to the Fed's shareholders, but the income tax was never legally passed. The Fed is illegal per Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution. In addition, not one state legally ratified the 16th Amendment making income tax legal.

    I created the petition to have my job reinstated. Please go to the following website to sign the petition. Thank you in advance for all of your support.

    Questions About New LAUSD

    Superintendent John Deasy's Credentials
    By Patricia McAllister

    10-23-11


    Per the LA Weekly News:

    The newly appointed Superintendent of LAUSD, John Deasy, who had worked with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, found himself in two major controversies. In 2008, Capital News Service found lies in Deasy's resume. He stated the wrong date he received a master's degree, and he claimed he held a position in the doctoral program at Loyola Marymount University from 2003 to present. Loyola's human resources department could not find Deasy listed as a current or past faculty member.

    Also, the Griffith Park Wayist also offers up a Baltimore Sun article that goes into how Deasy was caught in another controversy in 2008. He received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Louisville after completing only nine credits.

    ============================

    We as educators know that to receive a doctorate degree, a total of no less than 54 credits are required beyond a 36 semester hour Master's degree. I think that John Deasy is a fraud.

    Questions? Call Deasy at 213-241-7000.

    John Deasy is the same Superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School district, who went on TV this week telling the world that I was fired for making my comments.

    I think that when a lot of embezzlement is going on, all of the top people that are recruited must be willing to take the same chances. Based on Deasy's resume, it is evident that he is not a man of high character.

    I think that we should call for the resignation of John Deasy, for falsifying his credentials. If teachers were caught falsifying their credentials, they would be fired. Deasy is no better than we are. In my opinion, John Deasy is not qualified to be the Superintendent of the Los Angeles School District.

    Note: The LAUSD School Board members knew about Deasy's false credentials, and they hired him anyway. The LAUSD board members should be held accountable for their decision.

    Please visit the following link for more information on John Deasy and the falsifying of his credentials.

    Oakland turns to 1st general strike in 65 years

    A 10,000-strong rally has blocked the entrances to the Port of Oakland, which has had to shut down its operations for the day. The port will lose roughly $8 million per day if the "blockade" continues.
    Today’s events have culminated in a massive march in the Bay Area, which has been one of the goals of the Occupy Oakland General Strike, the first such strike in the city for 65 years. The Port of Oakland is one of the largest shipping hubs of its kind in the country.
    The day shift at the port had already been halted earlier due to the protests. Demonstrators are hoping to keep the port closed into the night. Authorities at the port say work will resume only when it is declared safe to do so.
    On their way protesters spray-painted "Strike" on a store belonging to Whole Foods Market after reports that the company had threatened to fire workers if they dared to join the strike.
    Threats notwithstanding, thousands of workers across Oakland are participating in the general strike today. Teachers and cab drivers have missed work to join the movement and shops have locked their doors in solidarity, posting "We are the 99 per cent" in the windows. Oakland has become an unlikely West Coast hub for the Occupy Wall Street movement nearly 50 days after the protests first started in New York City.

    Military Veterans Join the 99% on Wall Street


    Military veterans will walk in uniform to join the Occupy Wall Street protests this Wednesday (Nov. 2nd). As the 99% movement spreads across the United States, the presence of veterans at rallies, marches, and occupations is becoming increasingly visible. Veterans who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, and even World War II have participated in the movement, speaking out for the 99%, and raising the movement’s visibility in the process. Most recently, the unconscionable treatment of Marine veteran Scott Olsen in Oakland has drawn national attention to veterans’ participation in the Occupy Wall Street movement. Read More...

    How 'bout a Profile on the Flea Baggers, eh?

    For each of the 984 Occupy Wall Street protesters arrested in New York City between September 18 and October 15, police collected and filed an information sheet recording the arrestee’s name, age, sex, criminal charge, home address and — in most cases — race. The Daily Caller has obtained all of this information from a source in the New York City government.

    • Homes listed on those police intake forms have a median value of $305,000 — a far higher number than the $185,400 median value of owner-occupied housing units in the United States
    • .At least 95 of the protesters’ residences are worth approximately $500,000 or more
    • The median monthly rent for those living in apartments whose information is readily available is $1,850
    • .Of the 984 protesters arrested, at least 797 are white.
    • The median age of “Occupy” protesters taken into custody is 27 years.
    London’s Daily Mail newspaper, for example, recently highlighted signs of wealth among the throngs in Zuccotti Park.

    “Sleeping beside the hardcore activists are increasing numbers of wealthy students turning up to make the most of the party atmosphere, drugs and free food,” reporters Paul Bentley and Micela McLucas wrote in October. “While they dress down to blend in.

    Sounds like a bogus 'movement' to this objective poster!

    Ex Australian PM Paul Keating, on OWS-


    Mr Keating also weighed in on the anti-corporate-greed Occupy Wall Street movement, which has spawned spin-offs around the world but has been accused of lacking clear goals.
    He said his only surprise was that such protests in the United States had not appeared earlier, for example at the height of the global financial crisis in 2008.
    "In the United States between 1990 and today, real wages have not increased, whereas in Australia real wages have increased by 36 per cent," he said.
    "If you were in the Democratic Party in America you would hang your head in shame [at the lack of progress]."

    I am sure Boonmee has "paid" enough into the Thai economy to warrant a "free" health care access of sorts. He is not, I believe, an "immigrant" as such as he is retired here and not working/paying income taxes.

    After Rapes, Drugs, Violence and Death… Voters Surprisingly View Occupy Movement Negatively- that's really hard to believe!




    Occupy Oakland protesters pass a burning garbage heap during a confrontation with police on Thursday, Nov. 3, 2011, in Oakland, Calif. Following a mainly peaceful day-long protest by thousands of anti-Wall Street demonstrators, several hundred rallied through the night with some painting graffiti, breaking windows and setting file to garbage cans. (AP/Noah Berger) After over 3,000 arrests, the constant street violence, the drug use, vandalism, rapes and death
    Despite the corrupt liberal media, a plurality of Americans view Obama’s Occupy Wall Street protest movement negatively.
    A sign that the Occupy Wall Street movement isn’t the best long-term vehicle for Democrats to connect themselves with: A new Quinnipiac poll, showing a plurality of voters viewing the group unfavorably.
    The poll, released today, show 30 percent of voters surveyed view the movement favorably, 39 percent unfavorably, with an additional 30 percent not hearing enough to have an opinion. It’s one of the first national polls to suggest voters are growing skeptical of Occupy Wall Street- and it comes as police have clashed with protesters in several cities. Previous national polls have shown a plurality of adults supporting the movement.
    These numbers comes as Democrats, from the White House on down, have struck a decidedly populist tone in recent months, from President Obama calling on the wealthy to pay a higher share in taxes, Senate Democratic officials rallying behind the campaign of Elizabeth Warren, who has embraced the Occupy Wall Street movement, and House Democrats, who sent out a petition last month aimed at leveraging the Occupy Wall Street movement against the Republican Party.

    Hey! Steady on there misskit! No hypocrisy here. If the law of the land says I can get health care here, so what? Besides I have to pay for a visa every year along with the multi-entry so as someone else mentioned, I'm pumping $ (along with every other farang here) into the economy.

    So stick that in yer Bong and hit it!

    btw, I'll most likely never use the Public Health System here. Have any y'all seen the lines at one of those hospitals? Besides, as the saying goes - if you check into a Government Hospital with a serious problem, you'll just die sooner...

    I've no problem with you getting health care. Just hope that you realize it is socialized medicine and you are dead against it in America. Do you understand this?

    Why is socialized medicine ok for you in Thailand but you don't want it in the USA? Just asking ,like.

    ^ typical retarded right wing logic. It is somehow ok for them to use these programs but when it comes to everyone else they are lazy moochers. I am sure that we will find that the teabag terrorists where on benefits as well.

    It comes with the Tabien Leung (Yellow Book). Anyhow Apples/Oranges w/respect to socialized medicine. In a small country like Thailand, costs are significantly lower than in the States.

    So tell me about apples and oranges. You think a developing country, without many resources, can afford to pay for medical care for non-citizens but a rich, 1st world country cannot afford medical care for it's own people?

    Perhaps it is because medicine is SOCIALIZED here is why it is so affordable.
