OCCUPY
They are occupying Wall Street,
But I wonder, do they have a job on Main Street?
They are against the Corporate profit,
But how many Corporate patents do they use?
When they twitter, and black berry, and whine without end?
And how unrighteous is that Starbucks 5 dollar coffee cup?
They are calling for fairness, but not ambition.
The condemn the rich, but they excuse the lazy poor.
They say we should not have bailed out the banks.
But who, OH, Who was it that signed the trillion dollar check?
Was it Democrat, and Obama, and Biden and friends?
And now they set the stage to do it again.
Its too bad they do not occupy diligence,
Diligence is never hungry or broke.
Had they occupied wisdom
The right thing would have been done.
The only place they have occupied, is the seat of the fool
The scornful, the lazy slothful, all in the name of fairness.
They really only want to suckle, as a suckling baby pig,
On the wonderful government teat.
They care not the burden they have heaped on this land.
They only want to suckle and suckle is where they stand.
The debt is now 47 grand for every woman child and man.
15 trillion, but onward the little piglets go.

Awesome Jerry.
I share your views completely. "This world is not my home." Wall and Main streets are not either, though I have strolled down both for years.
I realize this is a simplistic viewpoint and that there are complex issues on both sides. As I get older I have learned to be less critical of people. Things are not always as they seem.
Michael,
There are two powers that be: Those of the true God and those of the devil. Remember, we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness from on high. Making ka-zillions or being poor are just two extremes with which God's people don't have to concern themselves. Our Father owns the cattle on a thousands hills. We are never to be found wanting. We don't focus on the millionaire ball players, or the rich politicians, or the other "unworthy" rich people of the world. We focus our trust in God to see us through anything that comes along. Our purpose is not to make as much money as those unfortunate folks who live w/o God in this world. We believe to have our needs met, as He promises. That includes material, health-wise, and spiritual (which latter two were done on the cross). Christ had the authority against the power of the devil while he was here on the earth. Now, you and I and every believer have that same authority until his return. Had the devil known that truth, he never would have crucified the lord of glory. So, please don't lay up for yourself treasure on earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; but, lay up for yourself treasure in heaven, where mouth nor rust can corrupt nor thieves break through and steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. God bless and keep you heart, Brother.
Thanks;
I thought of this last night;
They will occupy Wall Street,
And curse the day Corporations were made,
But they are okay with Hollywood,
And the fantsasy array.
They mumble, gripe and whine like dogs
About the rich in their fancy house.
But do they complain about the guy,
Who makes millions for throwing a ball?
And If I want to attend,
I have to take out a second mortage again.
Have you been to a concert of your favorite singing star?
They make ka-zillions, and try to pawn themselves off as poor
