What ever happened to Occupy Wall Street? To mark the third anniversary of the failed movement, an Occupy offshoot called Strike Debt! has purchased $3.8 million in private student loan debt. And CNN reports the buyers of the debt have forgiven 100 percent of it. They aren't saying where the money came from.

The Democrats' War on Poverty has cost taxpayers $22 trillion and yet 14 percent of Americans are still poor -- about the same rate as a few years after President Lyndon B. Johnson started the anti-poverty program. The Census Bureau reports there were 45.3 million people living in poverty in 2013 -- that's more than the entire population of California.
How does a liberal smell? Different from a conservative, according to a study reported in the American Journal of Political Science. Researchers found that people prefer the body odor of those who share their political beliefs. Does that mean when a politician shakes a hand they're also doing a sniff test?
