My problem with the Wall Street squatters is that they are not disadvantaged in any way, other than being crybabies-I saw some of the interviews with some of them, and they were bitching about all the mean corporate greed and how they had taken off work or cut university classes to be at the protest. Others had no idea why they were there, but it was “fun”-phoney, clueless people pretending to “care” about something, or mad because their lifestyle isn’t as easy as it used to be. I’d love to let one of them walk in my shoes these past 2 years and let them see how REALLY bad times can be thanks to that jerk rhey voted for-I feel like I’ve been transported back to the Carter era.
A “movement” with no articulated or discernable aim is just ripe for the plucking by somebody.
Exactly. They want to protest the man, but forget their man is the man now.
