I saw this on FB and thought I would pass it along: http://99percentexif.tumblr.com/
It's the exif data from the photos the 99%'ers are posting - showing the $1000 systems, cameras, and software they are using to post. t From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christian Sciberras Sent: Wednesday, October 12, 2011 12:45 AM To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] [OT] the nigger said: "American people understand that not everybody's been following the rules" Regarding who's doing the most damage to US economy, I'll just say I won't comment. I take issue with the 1%/99% idea; ie, the excuse that some people deserve more just because they are allowed to lie - even if it makes them hypocrites.

As if! Its not about greed - pursuit of wealth is fine. You just can't harm others while doing it. (Well, apparently you can in the US). One of the funniest things I ever read regarding Bin Laden's little war was a boycott of the US dollar to reduce reliance [on the dollar] and to harm the US economy [1]. Thought experiment: terrorist wanted to ruin the US economy. US Financial institutions threw the US (and world) economy into a recession (again). The US financial institutions responsible must be terrorist organizations. Thank {insert higher being here} that Bin Laden did not make a PAC contribution on 9/10.
