This has to be the single most fun event in a long time.  Let's see if they have the same impact as the protests in the crazy 60s.  So far it's been very peaceful.  But I do want to see more aggresiveness like in Greece or London.

世事幾好笑， 八十年代資本主義驅逐社會主義， 但又順手播下現今亂局嘅種子。

當年社會主義國家如蘇聯， 中國等如今紛紛投奔資本主義； 老牌資本主義國家又被人民要求走回離社會主義近一點的路線。

原來動物園裡人同動物嘅角色真係可以互換。

Very few protesters care about these ideologies.  

Bottom 80% of the people owns 7% of the assets in the USA.  And 1 in 5 of mortgages are in negative equity position.  Plus 10% unemployment.  I am surprised it takes that long for them to come to the street.

these ideologies are the core principles that govern these events

income inequality is the essence of capitalism, because people who are dumb and stupid deserve to make much less under capitalism

Just like everything else, nothing in this world is good under all circumstances

democracy itself can backfire at the end of the day (just like right now, when the US gov is essentially dead because of so called "democracy")

The US is just a two party dictatorship.
