The other day I got a notice from the tea party brief that the OWS numskulls came out with their list of demands. I do have to say that they are extremely laughable. According to Wikipedia the OWS "protests" were started by a Canadian activist group called Adbusters. Okay now on to their truly idiotic demands. I found the list posted on the Occupy Wall Street website: Protester Demands so here we go:
1) Repeal the Taft-Hartly Labor Act a.k.a Labor-Management Relations Act of 1947. This Act prohibits the jurisdictional strikes, wildcat strikes, solidarity or political strikes, secondary boycotts, secondary and masspicketing, closed shops, and monetary donations by unions to federal political campaigns. It also required union officers to sign non-communist affidavits with the government. Union shops were heavily restricted, and states were allowed to pass right-to-work laws that outlawed union shops.
1a) Unionize all workers immediately.
2) Raise the Minimum wage to $18/hr and create a Maximum wage of $90/hr
3) Institute a moratorium on all foreclosures and layoffs- Personally this one I am in favor of!
4) Repeal racist English-only laws
5) Open all the borders, and give amnesty to all illegals
6) Single-payer Health care system
7) Stricter Campaign finance reform laws
8) Negative income tax and tax the very rich at 90%
9) Stricter environmental and animal rights laws
10) allow worker to elect their supervisors
11) Lower retirement age to 55 and increase social security benefits
12) 5% annual wealth tax
13) Ban the private ownership of Land
14) Make Homeschooling illegal
15) Reduce the age of majority to 16
16) Abolish the death penalty and life in prison, release all death row inmates to traditional prisons
17) Release all political prisoners
18) Immediate withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan
19) Abolish the debt limit
20) Ban private gun ownership
21) Strengthen the separation of Church and State
22) Forgive all debts for everyone
23) End the "War on Drugs"
Okay now that I have written them out I have to say that every single one of these idiotic demands is not going to happen. Where are we going to live if we ban private ownership of land? And seriously $18/hr...what in the hell makes you think you Dumbass OWS people think you deserve $18/hr?
