Occupy Wall Street crowd failing to attract average people

The takedown of society the Occupy Wall Street protests strive to achieve, like the politicians they serve, has no significant constituency.

Even those with a strong sense of entitlement don’t race off to the public square to protest when they can watch it from the comfort of their digs on television.

The government is no help to the protest there because it cannot afford to withdraw its support of 42% of American households until the very end of the game.  To do so now would cut too heavily into one of their most dependable voter contingents.

The shock waves and bitter disappointment will hit first the ranks of the disaffected youth and the permanently entitled long before it ever scores points with John Q. Public.  Clamouring, beating drums and shouting chants haven’t brought about significant change since the long ago days of the French Revolution.

For the moment lying about on mattresses, strumming guitars under starlit skies; lining up in the great outdoors for meals delivered during texting appeals to the starved sense of adventure for people with nothing better to do.

All is never all sunshine and lollipops for the ‘Take Down Corporate Greed’ crowd.

With media hounds like Code Pink and Greenpeace running the show, breakouts of internecine fighting among the hordes is all but inevitable.

Whistle-stop visits from film celebrities like Susan Sarandon and Michael Moore don’t do much for morale when you have to line up with working people at busy McDonald washrooms.

Downloading video onto the Internet showing “the brutality of the police” has been done before.  It has been part of the protest scene for decades and the main result of almost every G8 and G20 gathering.

Organizers of the Occupy Wall Street protests spreading across North America have insisted they will protest peacefully to avoid violence   The police have told them there will be no contest if protesters remain faithful to their word.

It’s tough being a protester when even with everything including Ipads, Ipods and Iphones at your fingertips, the world around you just carries on.

Even mainstream media saturation coverage does the Mother of all Protests no tangible good. Most people, struggling in the current recession, ignore the mainstream media.

The latest praise from pack leader President Barack Obama will last only as long as the election campaign.  Marxist redistribution of wealth is intended for everyone, including those who take to the streets.

Making new friends while Saving the World is both fleeting and flimsy, loyalty being so hard to garner in today’s Me-First Society.

So far fair weather and Mother Nature have smiled on Obama’s rag tag, sanitation challenged army.

A sudden change will send the disaffected youth back to Mama’s basement leaving the colonels of the army to fight amongst each other trying to prove who is most influential and powerful.

And at the end of the day comes the knowledge that the masses they tried to lead to anarchy were always one up on them.  The protesters are fighting for Obama Marxism and the Muslim Brotherhood.  The masses no longer trust the politicians on either side of the political spectrum.
