“Let me tell you what [the Occupy Wall Street people are] talking about.*

(1) "They’re complaining about the fact that Wall Street wrecked the economy three years ago, and that  nobody is held responsible for that. (2) Not a single person has been indicted or convicted for destroying 20% (twenty percent!) of our national net worth accumulated over the course of two centuries. (3) They’re upset about the fact that Wall Street has iron control over the economic policies of this country, and that one party is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wall Street, and that the other party caters to them as well."


Alan Grayson, Former Representative, (D) Florida
