The man who owned the building complained they'd taken it over and the police did nothing. He was on the television several times, but they were allowed to make mayhem while the other protestors suffered for it.

I blame the lack of knowledge of the general public nationwide in refusing to acknowledge that there is a class structure.

Although I don't like to use those terms as people's eyes tend to gloss over because it smells like socialism to them, we do have classes in this country and the current status quo is doing great harm. Unions know the way things are structured, but also seldom discuss it because they know it's forbidden here.
