I'm not sure I understand what they're protesting either.

I asked on another board and got slammed with "Don't you read the papers!?!" and various vulgarities about what a stupid person I am. But, one said it was to protest the bailouts given to companies back in 2008.

Okay, so I asked -- "So they are protesting the President and Congress voting (without evidently reading the bill) to bail out corporate America because some companies were "too big to fail".

Well, I was called all kinds of awful names saying that it had nothing to do with that.................But, still no one can explain to me what they feel is the problem and what needs to be fixed.
