Many people have been watching the Muslim revolutions in the Arab world and drooled about them with such intensity that they called these uprisings “The Arab Spring”. Then, they saw the “Indignant” movement in Spain and Greece protesting austerity measures hailing the end of the welfare state and they knew something huge was gestating. Finally, they watched chavs and neds riot in the UK, not knowing why, while the “Bobbies” did not know how to fight them, and thought the time has finally come.No matter how many setbacks they have suffered lately in Wisconsin, the left has announced for September 17th, the *Day of Rage* in Wall Street, because “the stock market, the exec’s bonuses and their ability to be rich have to be brought down” (apparently, the recent S&P downgrade and a looming double-dip recession is not enough effort to bring down the market),
Hey, our special guest, satirist Iowahawk made a very revealing exposition of why the US government has to stop spending the way it spends until now, but that is not news for SEIU, Heather Booth’s Midwest Academy, AFSCME and AFL-CIO, not to mention the remnants of federally-defunded ACORN. There is a pile of money out there, but it is in the wrong hands, says Van Jones, disgraced “Green Jobs Czar” and now American Dream Movement’s big shot.
Even if the government instituted a 100% tax on both corporate profits and personal incomes above $250,000 per year, it would yield enough revenue to run the government for only six months. Why? Because under Mr. Obama's presidency, government spending has swelled to 24% of GDP from 18%.

It will be a “peaceful protest”, of course, but with heavy use of “civil disobedience tactics”, which means it could be a re-edition of the 1999 Seattle Riots. Not convinced? Then please visit USDaysofRage.org and see how the websites provides resources, including videos and detailed written instructions, for protesters to engage in "civil disobedience", including instructions on how to resist police arrest and disrupt court hearings. It seems they are taking great pains to make sure their protest is peaceful.
Please consider this “peaceful protest” as a fund-raising campaign for bureaucrats that want to secure their way of life… their particular American Dream, in which it doesn’t matter how much the state spends, there’s always need for more money, specially for lavish salaries, luxury benefits and golden plate pensions.
That’s why they are counting on your rage, too.

I hate these days. People are telling you to STFU. Just say it, no matter how stupid or offensive it is.
