Look at all the prosperity Mountaineer Racetrack brought towns like East Liverpool and Chester, WV. I can't believe that the township trustees honestly think the racino is the best thing for Austintown. I'm guessing some trustees' wallets got fatter with this deal. They would have to be stupid, or paid off to have let this happen.
I just think that there are better things out there to do. I like the idea of feeding the hungry at the protests. I think the occupy movement would get a lot more good press and respect if everybody walked into a shelter, or a home for battered women, or any kind of charity. Just show up and say, "I want to work. I can't get a job, but I have something to offer." Involve the press. Make your argument heard. I think the movement would take off even more than it has. People would be totally blown away by hundreds or thousands of people demonstrating that they want to work that badly.
Wall St is corrupt. The government is letting them get away with murder, right? I think the best form of civil disobedience for these occupiers would be to burn their welfare checks and food stamps. Why would these people take hand outs from their oppressors? If that's what they want their burn barrel for, I support them 110%. Right now, they're just biting the hand that feeds them. Even an animal can tell that's a bad idea.
