“Seventy-nine percent (79%) of Americans agree with the statement that the “The big banks got bailed but the middle class got left behind.””
ok let’s see how they feel without any banks or bank accounts. Sorry no mortgages or car loans. You have to pay everything up front in cash.
oh wait. No cash either since that comes from banks. Good luck with the barter system!
They're right. That money could have been used for Tax payer refund checks. Every taxpayer could have used the extra cash, and it would have been beneficial for the economy.
It depends on how you relate to the question. If asked "Should welfare benefits have been increased, or a new social program started instead of bailing out the banks?" I'm sure the answer would have been much different. It would have been an astounding "no", contrary to what this article appears to report.
There are people who think this protest is just a bunch of young people wanting a fiscal correction. They have no idea the protest is designed to start a Communist Revolution. The media hasn't started reporting that part yet. (Once the union starts breaking things, they'll have no choice but to report it.)
