If these folks are pissed off unemployed people, then where are they getting the resources to spend weeks in the America's most expensive City?

Throw a Jamband in the mix, and these same folks would be at a Music festival, instead of a leaderless direction lacking protest.

These are people pissed off because they are unemployed or underemployed. They spend a bunch of money going to college, and even went intio debt to get their degree, despite all the obvious evidence that it was a dumb idea to do that.

I also wonder how many of these protestors drive a Kia, Hyundai, Subaru, Toyota, etc. Just saying...

So if one owns a nice car, they have no right to protest corporate corruption? Owning anything from a corporation absolves all corporations of any form of corruption?

What about the numerous gainfully employed protesters? What are they protesting about? Perhaps since they have decent jobs, they should shut up? The true unemployment rate is the highest since the depression. I suppose the unemployed should just work hard? Wealth inequality is the highest ever and billions have been siphoned upward. I suppose the poor just have to work harder in spite of the fact that it's become statistically less possible for many to move upward. America is becoming a third world country and when we become one, I suppose the masses of poor who are starving just need to work harder right?
