Means one thing...the OWS got their attention.
Don't they get it The upper 1% in this country have quadrupled their wealth in the last 15 years while average salaries have stagnated when adjusted for inflation. Add to that the government handing the banks a trillion dollars of taxpayer's money with no strings attached. Add to that the 20,000,000 when those who are no longer looking are added to the unemployed. Add to that the 50,000,000 Americans with no health insurance. Add to that the fact that corporations own our politicians lock, stock and barrel through campaign contributions and high paid lobbyists.
This is phase one of a move which will ultimately have a permanant effect on politicians and tax structure in this country. Why do you think the approval rate of the congress is in single digits
If I was 15 years younger I would pack up my camping gear and join them.
Or maybe these bankers were actually going to a J.O.B. and just now had time to tell them to do the same.
Thanks to Bush, Paulson and Bernanke there's about 20,000,000 people in this country wanting a job. That's about four times the total population of my state.
Every Republican run during my lifetime has resulted in a higher rate of unemployment than the rate they assumed but this time it was rediculous. Jobs were bleeding off at 120,000 per month.
