Funny. Alot of the protesters being interviewed have jobs, but have taken time off to attend the protests.

I guess making uneducated blanket assumptions about them is easier than paying attention.

Yes, still in the, " ... then they ridicule you ... " stage.

Funny: I posted three pictures and several videos:

one showing a person holding a check, protesting and marching with hundreds of others regarding the ending this year of one specific NY city tax giveaway that only benefits millionaires on up, but will cut city income by billions and put the onus on others to make up that tax amount

one showing nurses (employed people) demanding specific transaction taxes on two types of financial transactions on Wall Street ("pay for your own bailouts")

one showing a young person wanting repealed laws that protected us from financial malfeasance, such as Glass-Steagall, to be reinstated

Multiple videos showing protesters having good grasp of the economic specifics that have destroyed our economy, and what needs to change to save it.

Yet they are still being classified by some as unemployed neer-do-wells. Dirty effing hippy types. Wow. That's really sad, that some in this country are trying to ridicule the very people that are fighting for things in this country that will better their lives.
