Think what you want.

I know where its going on.

For the most part, it's pathetic.

Quote:BEWARE THE DINOSAURS

You are beginning to hear that ?The Age of Wall Street? is over. Bankers and traders are already being compared to dinosaurs. Networks, papers and politicians are already predicting we?ll be extinct in the next decade. You can almost hear the joy in Keith Obermanns voice when he talks about how Joe Main Street is taking back America and evil corporate America is on its way out. I say be careful what you wish for, cause unlike the dinosaurs we are not going out without a fight.

Certainly things aren?t rosy on Wall Street. Our President accuses us of reckless behavior, Congress calls for oversight and salary caps, and commissions and compensation are down throughout our universe. If the socialist agenda gets its way we might very well be extinct and go the way of the dinosaur. Before the Discovery channel starts production of its ?10 Possible Reasons Why? show, lets take a step back. My argument is that we are just doing what we were bred to do. We were trained from day one to ?think outside the box? and have ?breadth of vision? right? We were trained to come up with ways to make money for our firms and were rewarded for it. So when the regulators made that impossible in the Equities market, we found different instruments to trade. Maybe we didn?t know the ins and outs of credit default swaps, the same way we knew what Intel?s capex number meant to the semi-cap equipment space, but there was a vig in it.

There?s an old adage on Wall Street ? it states, ?Give me the rules and I?ll kick your ass.? We are traders, it?s our job to make money. Whether it is a commodity, stock, bond, or some hypothetical piece of fake paper, it doesn?t matter. We would trade baseball cards if it was profitable. I didn?t hear America complaining when the market was roaring to 12,000 and everyone?s 401k doubled every 3 years. Just like gambling, its not a problem until you lose. I have never heard of anyone going to Gamblers anonymous because they won too much in Vegas. Well now that the market crapped out, the government and the average Joes are looking for a scapegoat. God knows there has to be one for everything. Well here we are.

Go ahead and try to take us down, cause you are only going to hurt yourselves. What is going to happen when we can?t find jobs on the street anymore? Guess what, we are going to take yours. We get up at 5am and go out after work till 10pm. We are used to not getting up to piss when we have a position. We don?t take and hour lunch break. We don?t demand a union. We don?t retire at 50 with a pension. We eat what we kill, and when the only thing left to eat is on your dinner plates ? we are going to devour that.

For years teachers and unionize labor has had us fooled. We were too busy working to notice. Do you really think that we are incapable of teaching 3rd graders and doing landscaping? We are going to take your cushy jobs with tenure and 4 months off a year and whine just like you that we are sooooo underpaid for building the youth of America. Say good bye to your overtime and double time and a half. I?ll be hitting grounders to the high school baseball team for 5k extra a summer, thank you very much. So now that we are going to be making 85k a year without upside, Joe main street is going to have his revenge right? Wrong.

Guess what, we are going to stop buying the new 65k car, we aren?t going to leave the 35% tip at our business dinners anymore, no more free rides on our backs. We are going to landscape our own back yards, wash our cars in with a garden hose on our drive ways. Our money was your money, cause we spent it. Difference is you lived off of it, we rejoiced in it. The Obama administration and Democratic National Committee might get there way and knock us off the top of the pyramid, but its really going to hurt like hell for them when our fat asses land directly on the middle class of America and knock them to the bottom. We aren?t dinosaurs. We are smarter and more vicious than them, and unless there?s a meteor headed for Wall Street then we are going to survive. The question is, now that Obama is making Joe Main street our food supply? will they?

What a pathetic, whining load of egotistical delusions of grandeur.

Whoever wrote that drivel (including if it was you) would slit his/her wrists rather than teach a class every day in reality. Stop blowing smoke up your own ass.

Like you butt sore bunch of spoiled rotten fucks are the only ones who get up early and work late? Like you have been doing us all a favor pressing buttons all day bouncing worthless shit back and forth until it turns out that it ain't just worthless its toxic and the people you have been deceiving all these years must bail your thieving asses out or the world will come to an end.

Keep wacking off to delusions of your own importance.

You aren't going to take anyone's job that involves actually creating a product or offering a service. You have not the capacity.

So now you threaten to steal the food you have already stolen from so many of the people's plates. Guess what? You are right. You are doing what you were bred to do . . . sit on your asses and play video games.

Sorry you worthless fucks, there are those of us still out here who have created wealth by building businesses that build products and provide services and the last people that will ever get close to the food on our plates are you self absorbed, arrogant little cunts.

Nobody is looking to take your jobs playing make believe away. People are interested in saving the world economy from your slimy masters.

The Occupy movement has already accomplished the mission by shining a light on your slimy masters and informing the people of the enormous ponzi scheme they have brought the world economy to the brink with.

In a nutshell, they have been taking a shit, bundling it, and selling it to "clients" while simultaneously betting that (indeed) it will turn out to be shit. In fact the real problem came when they sold their own shit to themselves, sliced the shit up and resold it.

Meanwhile, the dude down the street is being thrown in jail for stealing a bottle of malt liquor.

Don't get your thong in a bunch, it might show your tanning bed line. Nobody thinks that Wall Street is going away. What people want is sanity and a semblance of equal justice. What people want is a Constitutional amendment stating that corporations are not persons and $$$$ are not speech. What people want is campaign finance reform.

That ain't too much to ask.
