Let them protest all they want. They have valid points just as do the Tea Party folks. We have freedom of speech in America. I can tell you this I don't see a lot of American flags proudly displayed at these events. The vivid spectacle of society's taker class on display must be there for every good taxpaying voter to see. This is the hope and change you voted for. Bask in the spectacle of people who have so little self-dignity they'd sleep in their own fecal matter rather than clean it up.
Frank: Madoff got away with it because the folks at the SEC who were supposed to be keeping track of this stuff were spending their taxpayer funded time watching porn on their taxpayer purchased laptop computers.
Patience is not thin in the middle class. It's thin in the "union class" because the specter of a corrupt union structure threatens the pension guarantees to its members. And it's thin in the social welfare class because these folks have become accustomed to the comfort of the welfare state benefits. The term "middle class" has become a synomym for "union worker, or government employee." You people muse about the power of government to lift you out of poverty. Well we've been trying to do that since LBJ and well after trillions of dollars wasted we have more poor than ever.
And Dennis, it was Democrats who sunk the ironically named "jobs bill." Even the lame stream media cannot spin it to portray the GOP as the spoilers.
It amazes me that the commenters here always look to someone else (government) to solve their problems. It's as if they exist in some type of mentalplegia where they lack the basic intellect to secure a reasonable existence of their own. It's as if they think that government is some type of theistic authority. Well it's not. Wake up people. We got into this situation because we got fat, lazy and greedy across the spectrum of society, both literally and figuratively. No politician is going to save your bacon and sooner or later the government handouts are going to end whether by choice or by virtue of insolvency. And you better be prepared because those of us that have been paying the taxes that support your free phone, section 8 voucher, WIC, medicaid and your EBT card are not going to be inclined to help you in your plight at that point.
Simply put you need to get a reasonable grasp of the understanding of Maslow's hierarchy of needs and where government fits in that structure.

Money to evaluate court security? What a crock. You already have to show up 90 minutes early for your groping and scanning just to get in. They should have a shoelace concession for all the laces you wear out taking them on and off.
