Why not title the talk: Hear Ben Case discuss what HE has done for society and how he helps others in need and how to go about doing THAT and how he gives away his wealth to those who have less than him, how he opens his house to those who need shelter and how he lends his car to those without transport means, how he makes meals everynight and day for the homeless and needy and allows anonymous others into his kitchen to eat his food and use his toilets and showers......yeah, hear Ben's ego spew.
OWS: another George Soros production.

I can not comment on Mr. Case since I no nothing about him or his beliefs. However, as someone who has attended OWS protests I do strongly believe that the movement has traction. Only time will tell but most of the individuals I encountered and spoke with at Zuccotti Park were college educated young people with no or limited job prospects. It is a movement that is fueled by frustration. The loudest concerns expressed were student loan debt, lack of access to health care and a belief that government policy is directed at aiding corporate America as it ignores Main Street America and the average working class citizen. When one is out of work and struggling to make ends meet, I believe they will most likely gravitate to a OWS rally as opposed to a tea party rally. Jeff Meyer Tuckahoe, NY

No nothing is the heart of this movement.
Know or do nothing and no privilege earned will be yours and forever until we run out of assets
created for us by others.
You would make Mao blush, Joeseph toast, Lenin pay back his Soros, Hugo give the US all his oil and Fidel liberate Miami....
