So it's crazy for people to camp out on the streets in tents for Occupy Wall Street, but it's NOT crazy for people to camp out on the streets for Black Friday?

Materialism and that people are making a profit out of it?

Black Friday=shit loads of cheddar being made. You know these people are going to buy fucking a quarter of the stores stock, thus they're profiting off of it heavily.

Occupy <major city>= Little to no profit on anyone, except maybe some foods. But even then, there isn't much. Thus corporations don't want them around unless they're buying something.

Materialism, my friends. Materialism. Places have no problem with people camping at their doors as long as they come in and spend their cash on their products.

Reddit thread about differences in Time magazine covers between the US and the rest of the world.

Is anyone else really disturbed by this?

[Exeres]

Yep.

I hate this country.
