Where Are The Drugs On Wall Street?

[meow2u3]

Bill O'Reilly called the Occupy Wall Street protesters "a bunch of crackhead drug dealers." Glenn Beck chimed in saying that protesters were "animals" lured by drugs. I wonder how they reached their conclusions.

Last weekend I made my way through the broad swath of protesters in Zuccotti Park and randomly chose fifteen people to interview (my interviews are ongoing) and briefer discussions with scores of others. The crowd appeared to be mostly in their thirties, but there was a good representation of forty and fifty-somethings, lots of gray hairs--and more than a few people who might have been "Woodstock" veterans. Yes, I saw some pot-smokers and a few bizarre outfits, but the crowd appeared to be overwhelmingly peaceful and serious about their purpose. Wherever I pushed my way through the throngs I encountered twosomes, small groups and large circles of people in lively conversation and debate about politics, economics and sociology. It gave the appearance of an academic teach-in. Make no mistake about it. This is no street fair or drug fest. This is "America needs a fix," not "I need a fix."

Here's proof that someone can get 20 years for allowing visitors to use drugs on hosts' property: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204479504576637233204715262.html

These articles give me an idea for Occupy Wall Street: backdoor methods of prosecution to bring down what amounts to the multitrillion-dollar crime wave on Wall Street. The Feds ought to pull off something similar to what the Untouchables did to Capone. During the Prohibition era, they couldn't touch Capone on racketeering charges, but they did have evidence of tax evasion, so they stopped Capone using tax law. We could use the drug laws on the books to bring down the Wall Street criminals the same way. If they can't nail them on financial fraud charges, get them on drug charges. Drug convictions can, and often do, result in asset foreitures, and the racketeers on Wall Street have a crapload of assets to lose.

1. One of O'Reilly's best palsies, Rush Limbaugh, is a drug addict who broke the law....

Rush Limbaugh, who is/was a drug addict addicted to a prescription opioid, was arrested on drug charges after 'doctor shopping' to obtain his drug of choice, and lying to each doctor to obtain prescriptions to these drugs.

Further, it's Wall Street and the 1% that is addicted to prescription opioids and other such crap.

The Centers for Disease Control, the Univ of N. Carolina, and Duke U. have found that more people die nowadays from prescription drugs (oxycontin, for example!) than from illicit drugs.

If all the Wall Street, corporate a-holes addicted to prescription opioids and even illicit drugs suddenly developed a horn in the middle of their heads, the 1% would be VERY easy to identify on the street.

Lots of high-fliers still work at NYSE. Stoned stockbrokers - risk-takers with ready cash.
