Bloomberg is a moron
Everyone's going on and on, trying to figure out Occupy Wall Street protesters want. New York Mayor Bloomberg has finally figured it out: They want to "destroy the jobs of working people."
In his weekly radio show today, Bloomberg told a caller:

"What they're trying to do is take the jobs away from people working in this city,"

"They're trying to take away the tax base we have because none of this is good for tourism.

1. He has no interest in Wall Street...
The Mayor doesn't give orders to the cops, does he?

10. Bloomberg is very tied to Wall St. His "Bloomberg Terminals" are used by thousands
...of Wall St traders/analysts/quants/management/hedge funds/ mutual funds. His "app" is definitely a killer app - amazing and impressive. It costs about $1,800 per month for each license.

3. Bloomberg needs Wall Street to continue making its obscene profits in order
for the investment banks to continue to pay city taxes. He doesn't want to change anything.

6. Morons in NYC
As someone who lived in NYC for over 20 years I can tell you the morons are the voters who voted for him 3 times and Giuliani twice. The voters are pretty good on voting in federal elections, but much less so in state and local elections. I just hope that the people will vote out of office those who have enabled him to act like a tyrant. I'm not optimistic.

11. As another poster pointed out
they have moved on from the ridicule stage....to the fear/attack what they do not understand stage.
