What's 'Occupy Wall Street' Up To Lately?

Occupy Wall Street buys
$15 million of Americans' medical debt
By Elizabeth Dilts, Reuters

"The Rolling Jubilee project, organized by Occupy Wall Street's Strike Debt group, has so far spent $400,000 to buy the debt, in the process relieving 2,693 people of the money they owed for medical services Occupy thinks should be free...

The project, which launched on Nov. 15, 2012, raises money through small, individual contributions, and then uses that money to purchase distressed and defaulted debt from the lenders, who in this case are hospitals or medical groups. The lenders are willing to sell it very cheaply, often for less than five cents on the dollar, because they think there is little chance they will be able to collect....

... the group has $200,000 left to spend, and they hope to target student loan debt next."

Some talking heads on cable news would have people believe all of them are nothing more then anarchists. Will these 'talking heads' give credit where credit is do? I Think Not!


ONE MORE THING...Most cable companies refuse to carry the RTV or Al Jazeera (NYC) networks. Instead what we are exposed to are the big four and only what CNBC, MSNBC, CNN or FOX wishes to put on the air. Other less then free nations limit what it's peoples are allowed to watch on TV. In my opinion, not receiving information from all sources is disconcerting.
