OMG those poor horses being in the middle of all that chaos. The horses must be thinking how stupid humans are. The protesters knocked the barracade down, they are using the horses and police on foot to keep the crowds back. Stay back and you don't have to worry about being trampled. Why aren't these people in the park smokin dope and meditating? This whole exercise is so stupid and such a waste of taxpayer money. I'd like to see them bring out the water cannons. A cold night, soaking wet, should send them home.
Company's that produce products that we want to buy, get their investments from Wall St. It is the engine of our capitalistic economy. The problem is crony corporatism by Obama and friends. It's a money laundering scheme that the Chicago mobsters would envy. THE PROBLEM IS CORRUPT POLITICIANS, not Wall St, not the banks. We are all victims of this administration.

It is a Constitutional right to lobby your representative. Obama said he would not have any lobbyists in the White House, then he turns around and nominates Immelt from GE. Most of his admin comes from Wall st. He picks the winners and losers from Wall St. Of course they are going to try to get favorable treatment, when he's giving away our money to his buddies, and punishing those not playing ball with him.

Everyone is guilty. Pointing fingers will get us nowhere. Politicians give favors to get re-elected and Well Street gives money to get favors. Obama is just as guilty and in this case more so since he is the leader of it now as president.
