Hypocrites. Here is a letter I sent to the NY Daily News. I hope they print it.
“The throng of people at Zuccotti Park never cease to amaze me. They are protesting the “evil” rich on Wall Street but not one peep from them about the inflated salaries of sports figures, rock stars, rappers and Hollywood actors. Maybe they should take their act on the road and set up camp in front of Yankee Stadium, Madison Square Garden and points west.”
I do not believe the occupiers or anyone else have issues with being wealthy, that’s not the point. The point is that everyone have a fair chance. It’s the greed and corruption that hold us hostage. The ‘inflated salaries’ are based on performance and we hold the key to that, those salaries are based on performance and in most cases well earned, yes I agree they are way over payed to my liking but it’s not greed that gets them the money. Just like a lot of business men and women who are well paid (or overpaid) you work hard you earn it. This movement, to me, is more about those who are basically stealing from us. Just saying that’s my opinion
