H/T Hot Air for the video below where an Occupier tells the interviewer that he thinks others should pay for his college tuition just cause it is what he wants.
The era of feeling entitled to other people's money, baby!!!
The country and rich people owe us money just because we want it.
CBS New York reports that due to "unsanitary and unsafe" conditions the Occupiers have created in Zuccotti Park, protesters must move out temporarily so it can be cleaned up. Furthermore, notices are being handed out stating that Occupiers must abide by the rules Brookfield has established for the park, such as, that tarps, sleeping bags and tents are all prohibited in the park.

[Update] Looks like the Occupiers are going to fight the city on the clean up measures and refuse to follow the rules. Perhaps if they did follow the rules everyone else has to follow in the park and did clean up after themselves so the pictures coming out of there do not show a pigsty, they might just be taken more seriously.
Maybe people should contact Mayor Bloomberg and ask if the Occupiers are going to be forced to follow the rules everyone else does or are they above the law?
