Occupy Wall Street Movement is Anarchy

For the last couple of weeks, people know as OWS (Occupy Wall Street) have taken to the streets of our country claiming to be the 99% (Based on tax data that 1% hold more wealth the other 99%).  They are protesting that the wealthy are controlling the money and it should be redistributed.

It started innocently enough as a 60’s style sit at Zuccotti park in New York City.  Unorganized and unsure of their purpose, they occupied in the name of equal distribution of money and against the lucrative salaries earned by Wall Street Executives.  In fact, Nancy Pelosi and Barrack Obama came out in favor of the movement as a challenge to the Tea Party.

Since those beginning weeks, we have learned more about what is driving the OWS group.  They desire government control of the money distribution within the United States.  Although they sound socialist in nature, the control they are looking for more resemble communism.  OWS wants to eliminate the wealthy in our society with the assumption the money can be distributed evenly among all citizens. 

Living in tent cities, OWS has become more a squatter group then a demonstration or rally.  The group has allowed crimes such as sexual assault, robbery and drug use within their makeshift communities.  Unwilling to move even for sanitation reasons, stories have come out about TB outbreaks, scabies, lice infestations and even a new illness known as Zuccotti Lung.  After they were ousted from their tent cities, garbage men told reporters it was some of the worst filth they had ever seen. 

As police officers came through to clean out the tent cities, the occupiers resisted and fought against the police in order to preserve their filth.  In Oakland the OWS group smashed up a grocery store and a Bank of America.  Numerous police officers have been injured across the country.

On November 17th, they marched on Wall Street and various towns throughout the country (including Milwaukee).  Their plan was to shut down Wall Street.  To cause as much chaos as possible.  To disrupt society.  One group even had a moment of silence for the man who shot at the White House this last week, because he had spent time with the DC Occupiers.

Who wants this?  Do we, the middle class, the 99% want this?  Aside from the fringe leftists involved, does the Democratic Party support this?  No, people who hate authority, want this.  People who want to bring down the structure of our society want this.  Anarchists want this.

As proof, the march on Wall Street was to keep the big wealthy Execs from getting to their offices.  They wanted to disrupt the economic engine of America.  Ironically, if Wall Street shuts down it is the 99% that are harmed.  It is the retirements of blue collar American workers that take a hit.  It is investments like mine that are worth less.  Not the rich, but the middle class.  The people OWS claims to want to help.

OWS is not a movement.  It is a breaking down, a dissembling of the United States by force.  Bringing American to its knees economically will not benefit the middle class.  Crippling the government, no matter what political side you have, will only cause larger riots.  Anarchy only helps the next leader to take charge.  It has never benefited the 99%.
