Public Divided on Occupy Wall Street Protesters

Wednesday, October 05, 2011

[b] As they marched through Manhattan, they chanted of how the “Big Banks Got Bailed Out, We Got Left Behind.â€

Congress passed laws forcing banks to lend to folks who were not credit worthy. While I know there are crooks on Wall Street/Banks, there are worse crooks in Washington DC making rules that bankrupt this country.

I agree. If they are serious they should be protesting in Washington. Also, the Democrats are starting to support this big time, but it is Obama that bailed out the banks that were too big to fail, and received lots of campaign money for himself and his party.

This is not about the big banks. This is a planned communist event disguised to look like a grass roots movement. Wait until you see the specific demands they will make.
