Adam Carolla on Occupy Wall Street: ‘Self-Entitled Monsters!’

Former “Man Show” host laments the dismantling of America’s meritocracy

Don't expect Adam Carolla to join Jackson Browne down at Zuccotti Park anytime soon.

The former "Man Show" host had a fiery little sit-down with conservative organization Media Research Center recently, unloading on the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Lamenting that the top 1 percent of earners in the country — reviled as the enemy by the OWS crowd — are already carrying more than their share of the financial burden in this country, Carolla went on a tirade about the mentality that he sees driving the Occupy movement, seething, "We've created a bunch of f—ing self-entitled monsters."

As Carolla sees it, the seeds of self-entitlement were planted decades ago, as parents began to coddle their children instead of emphasizing a merit-based system.

"There's something that's come up in this country that didn't used to exist, which is envy. And it's a big issue," Carolla posited. "We're now dealing with the first wave of participation trophy, my own fecal matter doesn't stink, empowered, I feel so f—ing good about myself, everyone's a winner, there's no losers … we're dealing with the first wave of those f—ing assholes."

Carolla isn't alone in his disdain for the Occupy movement — earlier this month, graphic novelist Frank Miller likened the OWS protestors to "rapists," warning, "These clowns can do nothing but harm America."
