Wacky Fun with David Greaber!

This is David Geaber, he's a leftist academic and influential in the beginning of the Occupy movement. I would generally ignore this kind of irritating academic with his thumb up his anus. However, last weekend the Occupy movement in Oakland became violent. Oakland police were forced to use tear gas. We now know this is not really a peaceful movement. I've addressed this issue on my internet radio show, but I haven't responded specifically to Greaber at all yet or Occupy on the text blog that much. Greaber has correctly identified the base of Occupy originates with young people who came out of the liberal arts system. I have no qualms whatsoever with this description of Occupy. Here in Las Vegas the Occupy movement failed to gain numbers and visibility. That's because Las Vegas is majority blue collar and when you do meet someone with a college agree it's usually in business or law. It doesn't do much to add to the credentials of Occupy. More so, it goes to invalidate the liberal arts system. It shows the failure of the liberal art system to equip it's graduates with marketable skills. there's no real value to a degree in gender studies for example. I refer the interested reader to the excellent book The Secret Knowledge by David Mamet. Their real problem wasn't the right, it was actually the left. Herman Cain's question "What , do you think they're going to write you a check?" was never answered by Occupy. They could try a violent revolution, but they'd be slaughtered. There is a difference between the United States and Egypt. In the United States, something like 35% of American homes have guns in them, with large concentrations of them in the deep south, in areas that would never support traditional democrats much less communist revolutionaries. It wouldn't be pretty. I would like to see many more cuts to social services, incidentally. Wealth redistribution as it exists in the United States fails. I'd like to see a clear number of how much money welfare recipients spend on crystal meth each year in the United States. We perpetuate societal problems by rewarding failure. I won't maintain that the Wall St bailouts were not also a perpetuation of societal problems through the reward of failures. That though was, in a very real way, an act of socialism and state interference in the free market. Graeber should offically go back to theorizing about Marx with his thumb up his anus. Don't follow this guy. Follow me. Take to the streets this #M14! Occupy Wheaton!!!!!!
