What's not to like about this movement? Organized by liberal groups and unions,.......no platform other than hating wall street and capitalism,...... seemingly pissed off because they (the demonstrators) aren't successful.......most of them either having no jobs or being paid or funded by the union to demonstrate.
Does anyone know what their platform is other than to tax (over tax) the so called rich? And of course, the "rich" is a code word for anyone who makes $200,000 or $250,000 a year. Which is much, much more than what I make, but I am not in the least oriented towards begrudging anyone their salaries or perks, or retirement plans. We all know that the "rich" are the people making payroll, expanding businesses, and creating jobs,......and God knows that most of the union workers have exceptional retirement packages which have, in part, made prices here rise and caused some companies to go over seas for labor in order to even stay afloat.
So lets make sure the Dems own it:
President Obama said: "The protesters are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works,".
"I support the message to the establishment," said House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-CA. "Change has to happen. We cannot continue in a way that does not - that is not relevant to their lives. People are angry."
Did you see the news report of film maker Michael Moore in the midst of the Anti-Capitalist Protestors on Wall Street?? Moore was running his big fat mouth about people making money at the expense of the people, yaga yada yada,....here is the guy who has made millions off the free market economy,...and yes by inflammatory rhetoric and lies on films he has written, produced and/or directed.
