    Thank you for that. I just copied and pasted and I was logged in when doing so. Maybe I should not have done that as well. I will look into it.

    Here is Wallstreet occupying Washington D.C. against the people and then those thugs arrest those who bravely occupy Wall Street!

    Violent police crackdown against the 99% movement in the middle of the night in Boston

    if you look at your source code you will notice that your href=" was missing: "http://thomharman.com" and you had a doubling of "blog/2011/10"

    I don't know why your code was messed up...somethng to do with a server maybe? I am not an expert...or even close to being very knowledgeable about these things as I am just learning it myself...but in the event you don't know it already...you can view your source code by clicking on one of the buttons in your browser. My browser is the latest version of FireFox and I click on the down arrow just to the right of Firefox at the top left. Click on Web Developer, then on View Page Source. This will display all of the code from this web page include your code. Then do a Find or Search for some keyword you used..like "Violent" (had to hit Find 3 times to get to your code. You can compare your code to what I used to see the differences. Hope this helps!

    For as long as the money system is allowed to develop in a society, no amount of revolution or protests are going to change the economic climate of the nation or that of the world.

    The 1% cannot relate to you, the less fortunate or the poor. Nor do the majority of the 1 percent care about you, they only care about what you can do for them. The 1% give to charities but only for the purpose of tax writeoffs.

    The United States is being held hostage, as many other nations are, by Israel's itinerary. The United States itinerary is Israel's itinerary. Just look whose payroll your sons and daughters are on in foreign countries murdering innocent people all for the corporate dollar. Wall Street is no different than the IMF, World Bank or foreign run Federal Reserve. The 1% put the economic squeeze upon whomever they please and the media belongs to them. It is one big onion skin.

    All a revolution will do will bring about a change in policy of who will be the next dictator working for the onion skin whether that dictator will be a President or otherwise and which elected ones (including Congress, etc) will abscond with your money. In this all nations are tied together and whenever a so-called leader steps out of place with Israel's agenda, that leader will find him or herself either assassinated or blacklisted by the United States government run by lobbyists who work for Israel's finest interests.

    Take a look at the new maps: there is no Palestine. There never was supposed to be. And Israel's enemies (for Israel makes them enemies) in the Arab world are infiltrated with CIA and Mossad and Blackwater posing as revolutionaries murdering the other revolutionaries around them, and creating chaos in order to place the blame squarely on the shoulders of the present governments in order that they be overturned and puppet regimes put in their place. Blackwater creates infighting among the revolutionaries so the oneness of development of character will never take place. This oneness is what makes Israel strong, because the U.S. dollar is handled in many ways by the ones working for Israel.

    The U.S. military is handled by Israel as is NATO, and the governments are infiltrated by Israel. This is why British policy was once changed from placing arrest warrants for Israeli war criminals who came to Britain into a policy which would see not one arrested.

    Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel (which is not a nation for it has broken every nationhood rule of the U.N.) walks freely into one of the most restricted sites of the United States of America and that is the Pentagon, where he gives the orders and meets President Obama who is also indebted to him for his position in the White House, behind closed doors.

    Do your homework and you will see the onion skin and the connection the money system has made worldwide, by whom, and to your detriment.

    If you are going to suceed in regaining back your nations, one by one, you must learn to first come to an agreement to work in the oneness using thousands to millions of eyes to pick out those who would upset the apple cart a second and third time, then to establish an entirely different system conducted solely of paradisical itinery as utilized upon other worlds. Should you accomplish this then you will not only get your country back but you will suceed in building your paradise right where you stand.

    Everyone waits for the next life (after presumable death) for a hope to enter into paradise. I tell you this: You are already in your "future" life and are now given the opportunity to once again try to build your paradise from scratch.

    Creativity that isn't for sale is a formidable force. Pitch forks and torches pail to brooms and dust pans thanks to creative minds in the right place at the right time. More of this. Perhaps stations offering a cup of hot tea as reward for helping clean up the mess ?

    The Occupy Wall Street movement is spreading world-wide. See this:

    http://news.sky.com/home/world-news/article/16089544

    I'm from (and in) UK. Lived in USA 2005-2007, know all about Fox Snooze and all that. Love Thom's daily afternoon radio talk show (still get it on internet). Love you guys - you must get an NHS (National Health Service). Your society is becoming so vicious (eg Bill O'Rielly, Hannity & Colms, Tea Party, etc, etc.).Listen to a UK radio talk show phone in and it's like a kindergarten - just innocent chit-chat, what a diffference.

    Hope you can straighten it out before the Corporate Greed Melt Down.

    Mass (and regrettably violent) revolution seems to be the only way forward.

    The people took away the mayor's stated reason for having the park cleared out. Any action against the people by the police should be seen for what it would be - an effort to quash dissent and stifle the right to freedom of speech and freedom of assembly for the purpose of petitioning the government for the redress of grievances.

  • Will violent police crackdowns against the 99% movement, like in the middle of the night in Boston, deter them?   13 years 44 weeks ago

    DAVID J CYR...WHAT YOU SAID DROPPED MY JAW... SEE, WE DON'T GET THAT INFO ON THE NEWS. WE CARE DEEPLY ABOUT AMERICA BUT THERE IS SO MUCH INFORMATION FLOATING AROUND OUT HERE ON THE INTERNET, INUENDO RADIO, INUENDO NEW REPORTS, BUT THEY NEVER SAY WHICH ONES ARE TELLING THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELEIVE. SO FROM NOW ON ANYTHING THE FOX, NEWS CNN , TV, RADIO ARE TO BE IGNORED BECAUSE IT ALWAYS ONE SIDED. BELIEVE THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY SAY , THAT IS THE TRUTH

    YOU ARE A TRUE REDUMLICAN ALL YOU SAY FOR YOUR DEFENSE ARE INSULTS HA I WOULD BE ASHAMED IF I WERE YOU! YOUR LOW SELF ESTEEM IS SHOWING WHEN ALL YOU CAN SAY ARE INSULTS. AND NOTHING ELSE TO BACK IT UP. JUST SAYING THE WORD CHANGE WITHOUT SAYING WHAT THOSE CHANGES SHOULD AND COULD BE IS NOT A HONEST ETHICAL CAMPAIGN.

    THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS NOT DONE ENOUGH AND THEY SIDE WITH THE MONEY! IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH PARTY IS IN OFFICE. IT HAS BEEN A CORPORATE TAKE OVER OF OUR GOVERNMENT. COMMUNISIAM FOR THE POOR, SOCIALISIAM FOR THE RICH , AND CAPITALISIAM FOR THE CROOKS! THAT IS THE CORPORATE AMERICAN WAY! THEY HAVE THE BEST OF ALL WORLDS SERVING ONLY THEM AND RIGGING THINGS IN THIER FAVOR. RACKETEERING PROFITEERING AND PRICE FIXING, PUSHING MONEY AROUND WITH PAPERS AND COMPUTERS, ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS SAY ITS TRUE AND IT IS!

    We are the regulators! the U. S. Government has served up the working class on a silver plater to corporate take overs far too long. Rise up America ! DO NOT VOTE EMCUMBCANTS NO MATTER WHAT PARTY THEY BELONG TO. THAT ALONE WILL SEND THE MESSAGE THAT WE WANT REGULATIONS INFORCED AND TO NOT MAKE DEALS WITH HOSTAGE TAKERS THAT ARE HOLDING JOBS HOSTAGE FOR TAX CUTS .

    NY backs down as Denver goes brownshirt! Didnt anyone see how our illustrious democratic Gov and Mayor squashed toe Occupy Denver crowd with riot gear and arrests? It's mayor Daley all over again... but at least it wasn't 4 dead in Ohio!

  • Big victory for the Occupy Wall Street movement....   13 years 44 weeks ago

    Hopefully, the police will focus on protecting the nonviolent Occupy protesters and try to filter out the lawbreakers who have been sent there to tarnish the protest.

  • Will violent police crackdowns against the 99% movement, like in the middle of the night in Boston, deter them?   13 years 44 weeks ago

    Nonsense. Most of the Democratic party has been trying to do the right thing. Between unanimous oppisition from the Republicans, and opposition from a handful of Democrats (mostly blue dog), their policies have been paralyzed and, even when passing, were done so after embarassing compromises

    There is no stopping this movement. Unlike the Tea Party, their anger points in the right direction.

  • Speaking of the 99% versus the 1%   13 years 44 weeks ago

    The cynus1 posting (#19) is an excellent method for the 99% of downtrodden people to regain control over their own destiny. Let's face it. The 1% who own it all have no guns and rely on guns in the hands of all belonging to the 99% group of the enslaved. Therefore, having solved the issue of how to gain the upper hand on the minority rich, the vacuum will then have to become filled with a brand new economic order of the perhaps following description:

    In the recent past we have made the simple and accurate statement, that all planets who have joined the Intergalactic Economic Order have been able to do so because the societies living on them have at one time or another graduated into the adoption of an economic system based on demand, meaning a system of economics where production only covers items in societal demand.

    This "demand" in our terms can simply be expressed by a purchase order (speaking in terms of industry and business) or by the granting of free and unconditional public access to basic essentials so people can live comfortably. The latter is a form of expressing that "demand" as well.

    All members of society participate in an organized but unregimented fashion in filling that demand, and that simple participation automatically gives every member the right of access to the nations' productive output. And all this activity of production = consumption occurs in the absence of all types of currency as we know it today.

    And why is the switch from a money-controlled into to a demand-controlled economic system so necessary at this point in time? We realize there are more answers to this question than merely one, however let me name and explain the first and most important one: WE MUST NOW ADOPT THE SIMPLICITY OF THE PURCHASE ORDER SYSTEM OF ECONOMICS, FOR IF WE DON'T, WE WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO FEED THE GROWING NUMBER OF PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET! For those who retort "What difference does the type of economic system make to the earth's ability to feed her many people?" I simply say: "A CRUCIAL DIFFERENCE!" And this is why:

    A worker must eat, have shelter, clothes and transportation. His daily labour input on a semi-automated system produces the industrial value equal to that of, say, one lawn mower per day. The man earns $7.00 Dollars per hour, which equals $56.00 Dollars/day. After income tax and S.S. deductions his daily take-home pay has shrunk to $36.00 Dollars/day. Yet the value on the retail market his labour input generated, being that of a self-propelled lawnmower is $560.00 Dollars. Should this man ever have need of a mower of which he produces one per day, he will have to work for 15 1/2 days in order to acquire it. In other words, the system compels him to produce 15 1/2 lawn mowers in order to have one for himself. Yet in the meantime the man must eat and sleep, have money for transportation to go to work, etc., and even these basic essentials are again "front-loaded" with production costs at a similar ratio, resulting in a visible ratio of overall industrial wastage of being some 15 times higher than it actually should be. ONE WORKER MUST PRODUCE 15 TIMES AS MUCH IN GOODS OR SERVICES THAN WHAT HE WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE TO IN ORDER TO MEET HIS NEEDS IF HIS PRODUCTIVE CAPACITY WERE GIVING HIM NATURAL ACCESS TO HIS OWN PRODUCTION! The man's productive capacity is wasted into the system at a rate 14 times that of his personal output, and all because of a corrupt financial system!

    Take this wastage factor and multiply it into the increased number of people this planet will have to feed during the next foreseeable 25 years, then we can plainly see, that a continuation of today’s waste factor the money system calls for cannot be tolerated into the coming century. We cannot tolerate a system, whereby 15 automobiles must be produced in order to drive one, or 15 loaves of bread in order to eat one, or build 15 homes in order to live in one!

    My calculation tells me that 10 billion people on this planet by the year of 2025 will waste less of this world's natural resources while living in luxury using the P.O. System of Economics than today's 6 billion do in production of a 15 to 1 waste ratio.

    The Masters of this Universe mean business when they insist on a revised economic system, for if it were not permitted to be introduced into the next decade, the next generation will suffer massive starvation and the master plan of orderly evacuation would become ruined.

    Thom was on the Bill Maher show tonight...but he was surrounded by loud mouthed, idiot, Republican twerps.

    Then watched the Iraq Secret War Files documentary on Link TV. Very highly recommended.

  • Big victory for the Occupy Wall Street movement....   13 years 44 weeks ago

    I imagine that the people that have Power over the Police want to avoid the sort of thing that happened in Berkeley, California with People's Park - the arguments are the same i.e., Private Property and I recall from the Mayor Lindsey era there were similar arguments regarding outdoor cafes in Greenwich Village. I think Gov Cuomo would ask President Obama to send in the National Guard if Giuliani asked him to (whether on behalf of Bloomberg or someone else like Koch) without giving it much thought other than this could be good to garner GOP support for his re-election or election to the White House and - I hate to give them ideas since they have none of their own - I'm sure that the right wing especially the White Christian Southern Democrats would Love to lay this - as a test - on Obama. BTW Thom your Columbus Day Show was absolutely awesome I Loved it.

  • Big victory for the Occupy Wall Street movement....   13 years 44 weeks ago

    As traitors who have been bought and paid for, the mayor and police will do whatever the hyper-wealthy Wall Street fascists order them to do. The mayor and police are not allowed to think for themselves; they will do what the fascists tell them to do, even if it's against the law or against the Constitution. One would think that those puppets would find that a life of blind obedience humiliating, and yet for decade after decade they keep doing it. Go figure.

    ...uh sure how do i find them? I read what you wrote up above and its got tone but in my post i am curious to see what other ideas are out there. now may still be the time to bitch and complain but as you wrote its also the time to take it back but in order to do so we need solid ideas that work and are not just smoke being blown on the wind to win elections. we need the collective lay person and working stif to come to together as one and find a giving compromise that will get us out of the hole the crooks, criminals and corporate shills have put us in. i spend all this time reading posts and if I had to bet i'd say that for every hundred I read there might be "1" that is an individual trying to offer up a solution. I think thom should take all the ideas on his post and give them to bernie and let the last true people politician put together the most kick ass save america bill yet!!!lol oh yeah i still have hope! Mine come from the fact that I jumble numbers all day long on tax returns and want to vomit sometimes when the overall tax rate ends up close to zero all because of the way the code is written and yet some shmuck with just a w-2 and not much else pays out the wazooo. and the cheater? don't get me going on them!
