And so the beginning of a new global Dark Ages has begun.
Ironic, isn't it, that free trade and globalism and economic freedom have lifted billions out of poverty worldwide, and added 2 billion people to the ranks of those who have disposable income?
The OWS "Anarchists for Bigger Government" would impoverish us all, if their every demand was met.
So they just started showing world wide OWS protests. Watched one from Rome and if one looks in the background you'll see what many fully expect to start seeing here, at least one car on fire and an angry mob that looks to be trashing as they go.

Interesting that 1 in 6 Americans, who live in the capitalism capitol of the world, now live at or below the poverty level.
Where ever the hearts of maxists, socialists and commies beat the mob will go on. NYC folks aside who enjoy taking part in whatever media event might show them on TV.
Fortunately there are more of us than 'them' here in the USA. Let Europe enjoy their nestlings attempt to fledge.
Flash mobs, seiu, moveon.org, labor unions on the decline.....knock yourselves out.
They salt their rancid protest with fresh herbs in an attempt to find common issues and make their position edible to a universal audience. No amount of spice is going to make the meal which they try to serve, palatable to the American public.
They are about to be deposed by the loss of an obama 2nd term and feel the desperation of their ideology going dormant for several more generations.
Apparently free market capitalism isn't working well for 99% of the people.
That's right. The neo-liberal push for "globalism" in the 90's didn't quite turn out the way they envisioned did it ?
They told you globalization would be good for you because goods would be cheaper. What they didn't tell you is that eventually all your goods would be made in another country and you would be out of a job because you "cost too much".

Poverty level with government subsidized housing, food stamps, Medicaid, cell phones, etc.... . That is Socialism not free market capitalism.
