They aren't there to spur the economy. They are there to disrupt the status quo and make their voices heard...and its working...and they are growing...and the faux outrage of the tea party is losing steam by the day.
...and its great to watch them grow stronger in the context of voicing real problems while the tea party grows weaker in the context of whatever their latest BS conspiracy theory is.
So blocking the Oakland docks is appropriate? Ows has the right to disrupt other people's lives and their opportunity to make a living just because they think they are right?
Growing stronger? With the exception of Oakland which is it's own freak show most of these protests are only a few hundred people.
I asked this before - what is their message?
