NP - about the woolstreet strut

[Ian Livingston]

Remember to take no risks. People who risk much get branded. Be
afraid. Be very afraid of disestablishmentarians and their work. Back
the government and the rich with snide consent, always.

What started in Madrid soon had its counterpart in other places in Europe (the timeline is from memory), movements that were notably different from the protests in Greece. Only now have some folks over in the US gotten around to doing something similar.

Talking heads talked. The unemployed are still unemployed and a government that is even less sypmathetic to the plight of many is about to take control.
