OWS full of contradictions

    It's remarkable how when the ows occupiers need the help of people they don't like, they'll use them. 
  Like, for example, the homeless, whom they do not want to feed and complain about but, when winter starts to move in, they appeal to for help in understanding the difficulties of finding the warmest free place to hunker down to wash your pits and hunch over a toilet instead of a bucket.
  They hate the 1% rich,right?
  But when rich Russell Simmons comes around handing out $20 bills like Santa Claus they have their fat little hands out faster than you can say *twinkleup.*
  Russell Simmons, part of the 99%, is in spiritual solidarity with them, so that's okay. He doesn't see any problem in handing out cash to the children of ows. It's not demeaning or anything because, after all, Russell Simmons is fabulously wealthy and these beggars occupiers want money; it's a natural symbiosis.
  Overfed Michael Moore waddles in to commiserate and the occupiers rush toward him like he's a rich star in the upper crust of society or something; later Moore claims on tv that he ISN"T a millionaire, contrary to his income tax returns, but it doesn't faze the occupiers, who still listen attentively to his down home 99% speech, twinkling in ecstasy, apparently oblivious to the condescension of the 1% star who later paid thousands to fly across the country from NYC to Oakland in order to inform the "99%" they need to keep up the good work in their tents and poop buckets. 
  He'll fly home to his mansion after the speech, thank you very much.
  No one sees any of this as a contradiction to the occupiers' rejection of "consumerism."
  The occupiers like their fancy meals, so while much of America eats weenies and burgers, the occupiers eat salmon with dill sauce and then gripe when it's replaced with pb & j. 
  This isn't elitism or consumerism.
  They're stinker thinkers, after all, not worried about contradictions or cognitive dissonance.
  They get 87% positive coverage from the press, something the Tea Partiers NEVER got, but that doesn't make the OCCUPIERS part of the liberal elite 1% who get favorable treatment from the press, does it? 
  In some cases the money collected has been stolen or misplaced, just like in any flawed organization, but when the NYC occupiers collected $450,000 in cash by begging on the street from people who actually have money because they WORK, they not only keep begging for MORE money, because you can never really have enough money, right?
  Don't you think you got ENOUGH money?
  I mean, they might have to BUY MORE STUFF cuz there's no STUFF at the homes from which they originated.
  What do they do with all their newly begged/bagged money?
  Why, they put it in BANKS, of course!
  It all begins to make sense. Any natural evolution of society provides strata: some rich, some not, some to keep the finances, some to steal, some to cook...we need to buy stuff to survive, be happy or be greedy.
  Some people are honest and some people steal.
  That's just the way of the world.
  Except, perhaps, in Shangri-La.
  Otherwise known as lalaland.
  Maybe someday they'll figure out who the real problem is.
