Protests against Wall Street spread across US - CenturyLink
Ok, so they are protesting the people making money, not making enough money?
I can see marching on the bailed out corps(either the abbr or the word short one letter) of businesses, but wall street?
The evil people trading stocks for money? How does the poor economy tie to wall street other then as the goats for this administration? When the economy is slow, money is slow at the market. They want safe increased trade, they want more safe money.
Funny thing, Stock brokers are like mice, you scare them they hide(themselves and thier money) and when brokers hide, they don't buy/sell, so the market goes down. So in protesting they could push the market down.
Pressure on the market will reduce the market, which will harm the economy.
At least they admit:
Class warfare and ignorance, the left focuses people on the stock market so the lambs protest the market, ignoring the reasons behind the yo-yo stock values.
Investors aren't sure of the economy so they aren't buying, which means not as much capital for companies to expand, which means little hiring.
Reasons for doubt:
1.threatened tax increases. (Who does the left want to raise taxes on? Wall street and "super rich", both of which are investors.)
2.uncertain retail sales figures
3.wars across the world
4.unstable oil prices
5.goverment debt causing devaluation of the dollar (like it has already done once.)
So how can people marching outside fix any of these problems?
I do hate admitting it, but goverment can fix some:
1. stop threatening tax increases to pay for handouts.
3. Show more achievements or milestones for the conflicts to be over. Not time tables, but positive steps towards peace.
4. Oil, this is the best, allow all oil production to resume once proven they are safe(BP), allow new drilling, producing oil produces jobs, produces revenue, encourages the stock market.
5. Stop debt spending, spend only what we bring in, and even further spend less money then we take in so we have a cushion to fall back on when we have tough times. Rainy day fund, rather then buying votes for the next election with surplus money.
Remember its guaranteed when unemployment rises, money coming in drops while demand for handouts increases.
So, tell me what good does it do to protest the stock exchange?
Maybe these people should not just do something, but stand there?
NEW YORK (AP) Protests against Wall Street entered their 18th day Tuesday as demonstrators across the country show their anger over the wobbly economy and what they see as corporate greed by marching on Federal Reserve banks and camping out in parks from Los Angeles to Portland, Maine.

Some protesters likened themselves to the tea party movement but with a liberal bent
