Monday, a group of 350 to 400 at-risk homeowners, organized by the Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America, staged a series of protests outside the mansions of wealthy bankers in a moneyed Connecticut neighborhood.[...]
"During the protest, organizers shouted through bullhorns and carried signs in the middle of the road for more than an hour, prompting the police to shut down a portion of Glenville Road.
[...]
"Sporting bright yellow shirts that read, 'Stop Loan Sharks,' protesters demanded more accountability from the CEOs of the financial institutions responsible for the millions of unaffordable mortgages in the state and across America," reported NBC New York in an article titled, "Grab Your Torch and Pitchfork."
That’s more like it, folks.
Now, let's get some of you up to the Capitol.
It sounds like there's a good chance the restrictions on CEO pay contained in the Stimulus Bill is going to get pulled out in the final bill. Why? Because it might increase the total cost of the bill.So we need these folks to make millions to help us balance the budget.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
