Could not say it better myself, these people are now squatters, not protesters.
While I do feel our homeless and mental health and social programs do need to be improved, I feel most of these people are simply lazy oppertunists who only use `protests`as a cover to drift from area to area.
The 99% was suppose to represent the average hard working man and woman who are not getting their fair share of salary and hourly pay, while the exacutive and CEO 1% continue to have lavish bonuses and skyrocketing salaries relative to the average worker and corporate profits.
I will say that again, the average WORKER.
What we have in Vancouver now (not at the start of the protest) are the average leaches who simply want their life paid for with as little sacrifice for themselves. The funny thing is for those truly willing to better themselves there are social programs and housing available (i know this since some of my relatives have had to use such services in the past), the catch is such facilities and features often come with rules, which these bums are dead set against.
What disgusts me the most about them is they actually drain social service money away from those who do need it! (families working on low incomes, the mentally ill, the physically challenged, and those who do stray down the wrong path but then give sincere efforts to better themselves). Shame on them!
