They\u2019re down on Wall Street for two weeks; they\u2019re all over the country. They\u2019re protesting, all these students. You know, I\u2019ve got a list of the demands of these lunatics. (chuckling) It\u2019s just amazing. I just want to know who is going to tell them that Obama is going to ramp up collections on them. They\u2019re down there saying that we ought to forgive every dollar of debt in the world. Just retire it, just pretend that it doesn\u2019t exist. We\u2019re not gonna do that, obviously, but Obama has asked Congress for more power for debt collection agencies to go after deadbeats like these kids hanging around Wall Street on their student loans, by calling their cell phones.<\/p>\n<p>Proposed list of demands for the Occupy Wall Street movement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be met by ending &#8216;Freetrade\u2019 by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported goods entering the American market &#8230; Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system. To do this all private insurers must be banned from the healthcare market as their only effect on the health of patients is to take money away from doctors, nurses and hospitals &#8230; Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.&#8221; Why even go to school? Why care about education and why worry about employment if you\u2019re demanding &#8220;a guaranteed living wage&#8221;? &#8220;Demand number four: Free college education.&#8221; Why? Why do you need free college education? If you\u2019re gonna get a living wage and you don\u2019t have to work, why go to college? Let\u2019s just ban college.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, let\u2019s just ban colleges, let\u2019s put \u2019em out of business. &#8220;Demand five: Begin a fast track process to bring the fossil fuel economy to an end&#8230;&#8221;Hey, dodo heads? That\u2019s happening. You young skulls full of mush down there making absolute jokes of yourselves, that\u2019s already happening. This regime is doing everything it can to put the fossil fuel industry out of business! &#8220;Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now. Demand seven: One trillion dollars in ecological restoration planting forests, reestablishing wetlands and the natural flow of river systems and decommissioning of all of America\u2019s nuclear power plants.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an independent and party observers system. Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all. Debt forgiveness of sovereign debt, commercial loans, home mortgages, home equity loans, credit card debt, student loans and personal loans now! All debt must be stricken from the &#8216;Books.\u2019 World Bank Loans to all Nations, Bank to Bank Debt and all Bonds and Margin Call Debt in the stock market including all Derivatives or Credit Default Swaps, all 65 trillion dollars of them must also be stricken from the &#8216;Books.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And I don\u2019t mean debt that is in default, I mean all debt on the entire planet period.&#8221; You like that one? (laughing) All right, let\u2019s do that. Let\u2019s just forgive all debt. Just wipe all debt out! Nobody owes anybody anything anymore. Get rid of it. Okay. &#8220;Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies. Demand thirteen: Allow all workers to sign a ballot at any time during a union organizing campaign or at any time that represents their yeah or nay to having a union represent them in collective bargaining or to form a union.&#8221; Why does this matter when nobody\u2019s gonna have to work? Because earlier it said that demand three is &#8220;a guaranteed living wage regardless of employment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So why do you even need unions? Why do you need anything? If you\u2019re gonna get rid of debt, you don\u2019t need to worry about all rest of this. &#8220;These demands&#8230;&#8221; (chuckling) This is how it ends up. These are the proposed list of demands for the Occupy Wall Street movement posted by a guy named Lloyd J Hart at OccupyWallStreet.org &#8212; and what do you bet this thing links back to Move America Forward or some other White House related place? Anyway, the last line after all the demands: &#8220;These demands will create so many jobs it will be completely impossible to fill them without an open borders policy.&#8221; (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>Look, we laugh. Let me tell you something, folks: They believe this. Let me tell you something. They are being taught this. There are adult college professors who teach this crap. Now, where do you think these lunkheads get this stuff? They didn\u2019t come out of the womb thinking this. I kid you not. They are being taught this in the deep, dark crevices of academe and peer pressure and everything else. But this is so nonsensical. What does it matter how many jobs are &#8220;created&#8221; when everybody gets &#8220;a living wage regardless of employment&#8221;? Where does the money coming from to give everybody a living wage? (laughing) They don\u2019t care. Who cares? If you just make the law that everybody gets a living wage, it\u2019s just gonna happen!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Joe Bite Me was on our affiliate on the radio in Tampa and somehow the subject of Van Jones came up and Biden said, &#8220;Who is that?&#8221; Biden said he had no idea who Van Jones is.
