This is huge news that I have seen nowhere else!...
I don't think this has been connected yet....read and enjoy!
Sooo...I ask myself a simple question...how can these protesters be all camped up in this Zuccotti Park right in the middle of downtown Manhattan and nobody is even telling them "Move along"...now the park is in a nice area..hell it's right in the financial district...a very nice area. They are trashing the place, that's coming from the people down there, not my assessment. Now there are usual park rules there...no sleeping on benches...no overnight sleep outs...the typical and mundane rules etc etc. This park also routinely gets cleaned every night, now it hasn't been cleaned since sept 16th...and it's becoming a "sanitary problem"...I'm sure that's no exaggeration with people pissing and god knows what else all night long in the park...so it's no stretch to imagine how cruddy it is by now.
You can read one of the many articles here about that...
So apparently since the park is private property and owned by a big multi faceted and multi asset international corporation....oooohhh...remember when they were they EVIL!!!! Bad multinational conglomerate!...what are we protesting again Mindy Moonunit?...I forgot...errrp...so anyway...the owner of this property among many others is "Brookfield Office properties"...they are part of Brookfield Asset Management Inc...bigass company worth around 150 billion or more...
So Mayor Bloomberg says there's nothing really he can do until BPO decides the protesters ought to be evicted and they were nice enough to issue this public statement saying they weren't going to do that....awww...see how nice?...Well I would guess that if Mr Liberal Mike Bloomberg felt like asking them he probably could....
BECAUSE HIS LONG TIME LIVE-IN GIRLFRIEND IS ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS!!!..
Yes that's correct...NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg's long time lady Diana L. Taylor is on the board of directors for Brookfeild Properties..
Now this seems to be fairly common knowledge to some in NYC, but it certainly is NOT being reported in the news at all...So the Mayor who claims his hands are tied?...maybe not so tied since his woman is on the board of the property owners...
So what else is this Brookfield outfit up to?....
Well we got the namesake...John E. Zuccotti he's on the board of BPO...so who is he?...well Mr Zuccotti was on the Board of directors of WELL POINT HEALTH NETWORK...for years...remember them?...they were THE most Evil health insurance company just yanking the po sheeples benefits away that only Obamacare could save us! from...in fact Obama went for the throat in rhetoric on them...I find that highly ironic that the protestanistas are camped out in a park named after a board member of one of the most demonized and the largest and most evil health insurer in the country...lol...what we potestin again Mandy?....lol.....dumfuks...
You can read about him here:
Ok so more ironic than sinister...so what else is Brookfield up to...
Well BPO...that's just the property division who might they donate money too?...they are a multi billion division...so they probably give some good bucks out...well not so much, not publicly anyway...they did however hire a lobbyist firm for a couple years several years back, paid them a couple hundred grand over 2 years...in fact was there largest client in their first year.
Little start up lobbyist outfit named....
Oldaker, Biden & Belair
Nahhhh...ya think?....oh yes you thought right...that is the Biden name of VP Joe Biden fame and that Biden is his son..Robert Hunter Biden...
Can check that below and I won't even bother getting into how Hunter was on the board of Amtrak while Joe "Mr Amtrak" Biden was pouring money into that sucking vortex of money waste.
So....so far we got the Mayors defacto wife on the board of directors and some old payments to the Vice Presidents son's lobbying firm...there must be more..this huge corporation is just coming off as far too nice....even with the Mayors wife on the Board...the Bloombergs are only luke warm with the Obama's anyway...and I'm sure they don't like the protesters stinkin up some one the nicest areas downtown...so there has to be more pull somewhere...
Well there probably is....and it's a bit higher up the food chain...
One of the big divisions of Brookfield Asset Management inc is...
Brookfield renewable power...and guess who's govt has an ASSLOAD of Green energy money...stimulus money...federal loan guarantees and all that money moving right to the very same property owning multinational conglomerate that owns that dinky little park....OUR FUCKING GOVT...
Here's just a few and I'm sure we could find a TON more if we wanted to look a little deeper.

Brookfield Renewable Power
This company traces its history back to a Brazilian electric utility incorporated in 1899; today, it's headquartered in West Virginia and manages renewable energy projects in the U.S., Brazil and Canada, including 167 hydroelectric stations and two wind farms. A publicly traded company, Brookfield maintains stable revenues thanks to long-term power contracts, and uses this advantage to help pioneer next-generation projects in wind and thermal energy. Besides specializing in renewable energy, the company has also donated nearly $4 million to local sustainability projects. Brookfield also voluntarily meets the low-impact standards put forward by the Ecologo Program and the Low Impact Hydropower Institute.
Brookfield is currently working on a wind energy project in Coos County, New Hampshire, financed in part with the Department of Energy’s partial guarantee of $135.8 million in loans. The Department of Energy says the project will result in 198 construction jobs and and save some 12,000 tons of carbon pollution once it is up and running.
Wow 198 temporary jobs?...that's less than a million a pop, pretty good by govt standards!..
Hmmmm...this is odd....they have almost half of their 168 power generating stations in.....New York....
Massive move being made here....huge bet on "Green Energy"
Brookfield to merge hydro power assets into global renewable energy powerhouse September 13, 2011
Brookfield Asset Management is looking to merge its hydroelectric and wind power assets into the world's second-largest public renewable power company in a move designed to cash in on the growing demand for cleaner power.
The conglomerate said Tuesday it plans to combine Brookfield Renewable Power Fund's (TSX:BRC.UN) hydroelectric stations and wind farms with those of its wholly owned subsidiary Brookfield Renewable Power Inc.
The merger would create Brookfield Renewable Energy Partners LP — or BREP — a global, publicly traded partnership focused on renewable power, primarily hydroelectric, in Canada, the United States and Brazil with assets of about US$13 billion.
whoops...price of poker went up another 30 million...
A NH Solyndra? Wind farm gets fed loan
In the name of “green energy,” the Obama administration is using taxpayer money to subsidize a New Hampshire wind farm that is a subsidiary of a hugely profitable company.
New Hampshire’s largest wind farm, the Granite Reliable Power project under construction in Coos County, is jointly owned by BAIF Granite Holdings, LLC and Freshnet Wind Energy, LLC. BAIF owns 75 percent of Granite Reliable. BAIF Granite Holdings was created earlier this year by Brookfield Renewable Power, which is a subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management of New York.
That company, which runs clean energy operations around the world, has deep pockets. It reported net income of $454 million in 2009 and $3.2 billion in 2010. Brookfield Renewable Power financed the creation of BAIF Granite Holdings from its Brookfield Americas Infrastructure fund, which was reported in February to have $2.7 billion in assets. With that kind of backing, it is curious that the U.S. Department of Energy announced it would guarantee up to 80 percent of a $168.9 million loan for the Granite Reliable wind farm project last week.
Department of Energy Finalizes Loan Guarantee of Nearly $170 Million to Granite Reliable Power
September 23, 2011 - 3:31pm
Washington, D.C. – U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced today the Department of Energy finalized a partial guarantee for $168.9 million loan to Granite Reliable Power, LLC. The loan guarantee will support a 99 megawatt (MW) wind generation project that will be New Hampshire’s largest wind farm.
Well now...454 Million net income in the 2009 and 3.2 billion in 2010....that's quite a rise in profits...
Now.....why would a huge and very rich company that had 3.2 Billion dollars in profits in 2010 need or be able to get a Loan guarantee for 168 million...which the Dept Of Energy announced finalizing on....Sept 23rd 2011....not long after the OWS protests started really getting going...a 168 million dollar loan guarantee with no visible reason why behind it....to the very same corporation that owns the very same Zuccotti park the protesters are camped out in....
Maybe they ought to form a circular protesting squad....
