These protesters are protesting all the wrong things which is why I'm sick of this occupy wall street thing. It should be occupy the whitehouse/federal reserve/congress...not wall street aka the people that create jobs, wealth, etc.

But they don't create jobs and wealth. They just sit around trading each other funny money and don't do a damn thing to increase actual value. That belongs with entrepreneurs and people who are actually on the ground and, you know, making things or providing services.

 

So who does create jobs and wealth then? Its certainly not the government. Government kills more jobs than it creates. 

We have to separate the businesses and investors that actually do stuff from the ones that don't. To act like all of these wall street people are inherently job-creators is just as blind as any other fallacy, and lets them continue with their exploitation unopposed

The cult of wealth in this country needs to end. These people are no better than the average hardworking person, save by flukes of being in the right place at the right time

In regards to the bit that I bolded:

I'm not trying to be a dick when I say this but let's be honest...not everyone has the skills/knowledge to run a successful Wall street business, but any physically able person in America could be a successful garbage man, janitor, factory worker, etc. I'm in no way insulting people who do these jobs, they are good hardworking people...but when they do simple work that anyone can learn they don't deserve the same pay as the CEO of a multinational company with thousands of employees worldwide. 

Plus I don't get how you think Wall Street doesn't create jobs. The government only creates jobs by taking money from one person and giving it to another guy...but the Wall Street (or just entrepreneurs in general) actually make new jobs out of nothing by starting/expaning businesses.
