Couldn't get the site to come up. Could be my computer, could be site trouble. Anyway, the point is well taken. Any number of these people are naifs. Not too surprised, most are in the 18 to 25 years old range. Don't know about anyone else, but in those years I was not too swift about any number of topics. Hell, in 2011 there are topics I'm not too swift about. It would have been better if the questions allowed for youthful ignorance and sought the core of grievances and the core of knowledge that the protestors do have. Still, worthwhile to know just how far off some of these people can be. Billy ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- 10/18/2011 9:22:26 P.M.

NEW YORK MAGAZINE: _ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A WALL STREET OCCUPIER?_ (http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2011/10/occupy_wall_street_quiz.html) Polling the OWS folks shows they don’t know much. My favorite: Elizabeth Warren as Warren Buffett’s wife. But this one, noted by Allahpundit as _“why I drink,”_ (http://hotair.com/archives/2011/10/18/video-occupy-wall-street-i-need-attention/) is probably more significant. These people have no idea where tax money goes, or where it comes from.
