US News says the occupiers may create their own cashless society within a month.
The Occupy Wall Street movement could be broke in a month, according to recent reports. The latest blow to the protest group comes as it has been struggling to stay afloat following its Nov. 15 eviction from New York City’s Zuccotti Park.
“If we keep spending at the rate at which we have been doing, we will probably go broke in a month,” Haywood Carey, a member of the movement’s accounting group, told the Wall Street Journal.
The group’s bank balance has dwindled to just $170,000 according to the Journal, down from the nearly $700,000 it raised last fall. Very few donations are coming in, volunteers said, a harsh reality following the mo
Money that poured in from around the nation during the group’s highly publicized two-month stint in a Lower Manhattan park.
Who knew that pestering Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum in Iowa and New Hampshire would end up being so expensive?
Never fear, though. #OWS has connections with very deep pockets and may pick up an ally/new master soon.
Not enough unicorns. Or something.
OWS has probably and illegally cost their “fellow” taxpayers 5 times that 700 grand in cities across the nation. Screw ‘em.
Right into the ground.
heeheehee! “ally/new master”? oh man, you wingnuts are a.dor.a.ble.
ARGLE BARGLE! Tin foil hats for one and all!
What are you babbling about? Are you twelve?
Michelle is doing the only thing an OWSer knows how to do – be a troll. What a tool. Go back to your mama’s basement, dumdum. She HAS to put up with you. We don’t.
Hey, every dollar being poured down the OWS rathole is a dollar antagonizing still more voters and not going to something that might actually advance the progressive cause. I call that a win-win.
We can only hope OWS goes broke. Unfortunately, I foresee this rabble returning with the warm weather. It’s gonna be a loooong, hot smelly summer. Wonder what kind of tropical diseases we’ll see?
Congratulations to OWS for finally accomplishing their goal of financial nirvana. Since money is bad then being broke must be good. That’s called OWS logic. And then it’s back to mommy’s basement…
I would love to get my hands on their financial statements. I bet their audit committee contains not one person who can balance a check book, never mind account for $530,000!
Not to worry, SEIU, the DNC, and George Soros have very deep pockets, the clueless little idiots will be well funded through November.
