(397 posts)"lashed" out, we wouldn't have much of a society.
The laws and rules are in place. There is a mechanism for getting EVERYTHING you want to not feel abused. The trick is getting enough people to agree with you.
If you claim you can't get enough people to agree with you because the deck is stacked against you then
A) the people deserve what they want or get. Sorry, you just don't get to determine what is best for people. If they "fall for" advertising that you can't afford to counter, then you must think people are really stupid and need your guardianship. No thanks. I don't want to trade the old boss for the you boss.
B) Maybe your idea isn't as great as you think it is.
And no I'm not saying the OWS ideas aren't great. I'm talking about feeling abused, lashing out, and trying to get things changed in general.
