    Has anyone seen this? Until two days ago it's been like a black hole with no information even though its been going on for a week. The thing that interest me is how there has been no "national" media footage of this. Maybe it is different at the local level?

    I've been watching it on TV Ralph....CNBC follows their antics during trading hours as they harass people just on their way to do their job or go home to their families after a days work.....a disgusting and unfortunate by-product of this administration's rhetoric and incessant class war.

    This is the second week of protesters even the reporters on MSNBC who work at the stock exchange are having to show special ID's to get in.. like Jim Cramer sadi the other day he was very worried about even getting thru the crowd. I live on the stock channel most of the Day. I find it fasinating. and I have learned alot. like The thing they arent telling you about Buffet is the reason his sectretary pays more tax's is that he doesnt receive an income from his job/ gee I wonder why he pays so little what a hyprocrite I really hope he loses alot of money like he is right now w. B of A /// He complains that most Millionaires or billionaires dont pay enough but most of them pay over 40% on their salaries and bonus's He doesnt have a salary he has his capatal gains @ 17% The morning host on the shows are very conservative and they had The former GE CEO really red in the face Friday morning.poor Jack didnt see them coming at him from all angles. it was awesome. Barnie Frank wont even go on the morning show anymore. ... Love it.
