Occupied

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't think that people are pissed that Wall Streeters and others earn so much money. They're offended by it, because they apparently do so little for the economy in order to get that money, and they earn obscene amounts. But they can live with it.

I think that what they're pissed at is that those people are earning so much while so many others are getting squeezed, working harder, earning less - or nothing.

If the squeezing wasn't there, I don't think we'd care nearly as much.
