The OccupyLA protesters call themselves the 99%. A self-described 1%'R, a Capitalist, wandered into the Occupy Los Angeles protest at City Hall one evening and confronted the protestors and answered questions that many of them had.
Funny thing is, the protestors enjoyed the discussion with the capitalist and invited him back.

Funny how the protestors liked Herman Cain when his name was mentioned
I like to prove that capitalism is the most non racist non ideological system of trade there is.
We Are The 99%
But he has no problem with nationalizing some of the banks. . . like Dexia in Belgium. . .how about NO!!!!
LOL nice.
Every one likes Cain, (unless you were backing someone else who is now about 10% in the pols)
Wow. The brothers there loved the thought of Herman Cain and started chanting 999. That alone should strike fear in the WH.
From what I’ve only seen and read, these LA people don’t seem as radically ignorant as the NY mob.
The man showed real stones, walking into the belly of the beast. He comported himself magnificently.
This guy has gonads. I salute him for taking the time and having the patience to deal with these folks.
sfl
wow
who the heck was that guy!
smartest person I have heard speak in forever.
I’m not a 1%’er but I am a 5%’er and I couldn’t have answered hardly any of those questions as well as that man did.
I particularly loved his answer about high CEO salaries.
Thanks for sharing this.
I’m not nearly a 1%’er, but I’ve paid every single year for the last 30. Maybe a lot of us should put on an old floppy hat and flannel shirt, some beads, and go down and talk to them just like this guy did. We certainly have more intelligence and leadership; wouldn’t it be great if a spokesman for these groups ended up being republican.
What I thought was funny is that they seemed to be Herman Cain supporters.
bflr
You must be enjoying the game. Me too!
