The people with their hand on the throat of democracy and true capitalism in this country feel threatened by the protests. They can only maintain their grip so long as nobody points it out. When it's pointed out, they put out a story that these people are communists or socialists or whatever in order to divert the attention away from themselves. And the rubes lap it up and spew it back at anyone who dares say that the protesters have a point. Unbelievable.

What unbelievable is how you always go right for the personal insults. "Rubes"? Do you really think your rudeness is going to win you any allies among the middle class? I mean the real middle class, not the union guy who thinks that sweeping the floor ought to provide a "living wage" or the Ivy league college student who has absolutely no conception of what it takes to hold down a job?
