I guess only the 1%'rs will have to pony up to pay for the mess?? Well in the world of a loon that is how it should be. In reality it's the folks who most likely need services that will see them cut. The occupiers can go back home to mommy and daddy's basement and whine about wanting that kindle fire so they can read books and look cool to their friends.
The City of Los Angeles reportedly faces millions of dollars in expenses brought about by the Occupy LA movement.
City agencies have been ordered to calculate what was spent on the Occupy LA protests.
Repairs to City Hall’s lawn where the Occupy group set up camp on Oct. 1 will require an estimated $400,000. The police action to clear out the encampment on Nov. 30 cost more than $700,000.
Additional expenses are attributed to hauling away debris from the camp, and cleaning up graffiti that defaced City Hall marble walls and trees.
Mayor Villaraigosa says more budget cuts will be necessary to offset the costs.
