You are heading north, now you are heading south...that's a 180. TOS doesn't grasp his/her math!
A 360 would be you are heading n. and do a complete spin around and are still heading north.
God please get your head out of your A** if you think those people got Bank Of A to change the policy please. Moreluck was rigth it is people who are moving the money to other banks, such as the credit unions. But that is right we all need to have TOS and OWS people to think for us. These are the people who are sh**ting and Pi**ing in the parks and then eating in the same spots. But that is right we need a foward thinkers like you to show us the way. So please continue to beam your every so bright light to shine the way for we are all lost without your bigger then holy then now words of wisdom. I will continue to read your words of shining truth and LMAO at the same time. You don't know how un-bright you sound half the time. Peace put you fake union leader.

(The Atlantic) — You’re gonna like the way you look protesting income disparity in Oakland; this Men’s Wearhouse store guarantees it.
Occupy Oakland has called for a city-wide strike and rally on Wednesday to protest income inequality, and several businesses, including Men’s Wearhouse and the Grand Lake movie theater, have closed their doors in support. Oakland Tribune reporter Matt O’Brien tweeted the above photo of the shuttered men’s clothing store.
The store’s decision will likely meet with approval from the corporate HQ: George Zimmer, founder and chairman of Men’s Wearhouse, has repeatedly donated to Democratic candidates in multiple election cycles, including progressives like 2004 presidential candidate Howard Dean and Rep. Barbara Lee (Calif.).

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — America’s top central banker “sympathizes” with the Occupy Wall Street protesters and thinks many of their frustrations with the sluggish economy are “understandable.”
But there’s one complaint Ben Bernanke does take issue with: the backlash against the Federal Reserve.
“I think that the concerns about the Fed are based on misconceptions,” he said at his news conference Wednesday.
The Occupy Wall Street protests, which started in New York in September and have since spread around the world, are known for their ever-evolving and diverse list of grievances. Among them are the common themes of distaste for the banking system and frustration with government.
With that in mind, the Fed is perfectly situated as a whipping boy for the Occupy demonstrations. The Fed was created by and reports to Congress. Its top leaders are appointed by the president.
Bernanke Says He “Sympathizes” With Occupy Wall Street Protesters…
He does realize they want to string him up by his balls, right?

OWS should begin to Withdraw Consent
Cudos to Kevin for promoting the Open Source Ecology guys and their rethinking industrialization on a micro/open source platform.

(The Hill) — Sarah Palin blasted the Occupy Wall Street protest movement on Thursday night for wanting the same thing they protest: A government bailout.
“The nation’s dividing line today is how you answer this question: Are you entitled to other people’s money? The Wall Street crony capitalists, the Obama administration, the leftist politicos, big union bosses and the occupiers, they all say, ‘Yes!’ The rest of America says, ‘No!’” Palin said in a speech to the Florida GOP party, according to the Associated Press report.
Originally, Palin said, “I looked at [the movement] thinking, well these folks, they feel legitimate indignation about the Wall Street bailouts — financial institutions behaving recklessly, and then we get stuck with the bill.”
But Palin doesn’t think the protesters are holding Wall Street accountable so much as they are demanding equal treatment. “They say, ‘Wall Street ‘fat cats’ got a bailout, so now I want one too,’ and the correct answer is, ‘No one is entitled to a bailout,’” she said. “The American dream, our foundation, is about work ethic and empowerment, not entitlement.”
Palin also suggested that the protesters, who now ‘Occupy’ in a variety of cities around the nation, find their purpose protesting the White House.
“My question to the Occupy Wall street crowd is, ‘Where have you been the last three years?’” Palin said. “I suggest if they want to vent and want to change the situation, then they vent in the right direction. They need to hop on a bus and travel south — 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, where there’s plenty of space to occupy.”

Friday, November 4, 2011 @ 8:55 am | ACORN Officials Scramble, Firing Workers And Shredding Documents After Being Exposed As Players Behind Occupy Wall Street Protests…
Busted.
Busted.
(Fox News) — Officials with the revamped ACORN office in New York — operating as New York Communities for Change — have fired staff, shredded reams of documents and told workers to blame disgruntled ex-employees for leaking information in an effort to explain away a FoxNews.com report last week on the group’s involvement in Occupy Wall Street protests, according to sources.
NYCC also is installing surveillance ca
meras and recording devices at its Brooklyn offices, removing or packing away supplies bearing the name ACORN and handing out photos of Fox News staff with a stern warning not to talk to the media, the sources said.
“They’re doing serious damage control right now,” said an NYCC source.
NYCC Executive Director Jon Kest has been calling a series of emergency meetings to discuss last week’s report — and taking extreme measures to identify the sources in their office and to prevent further damage, a source within NYCC told FoxNews.com
.
Two staffers were fired after NYCC officials suspected them as the source of the leaks, a source told FoxNews.com. “One was fired the day the story came out, the other was fired on Friday. (NYCC senior staff) told everyone that they were fired because they talked to you,” a source said.
NYCC spokesman Scott Levenson denied that anyone was fired for talking to the press.
FoxNews.com’s report identified NYCC as a key organizing force behind the Occupy Wall Street protests. Sources within the group also told FoxNews.com NYCC was hiring people to carry signs and join the protests. NYCC — a nonprofit organization run almost entirely by former ACORN officials and employees — did not reply for comment prior to the publication of the initial article, but later posted a statement on its website dismissing the article and denying that it pays protesters.
