Many “Occupy Wall Street” protesters arrested in New York City “occupy” more luxurious homes than their “99 percent” rhetoric might suggest, a Daily Caller investigation has found.
For each of the 984 Occupy Wall Street protesters arrested in New York City between September 18 and October 15, police collected and filed an information sheet recording the arrestee’s name, age, sex, criminal charge, home address and — in most cases — race. The Daily Caller has obtained all of this information from a source in the New York City government.
Among addresses for which information is available, single-family homes listed on those police intake forms have a median value of $305,000 — a far higher number than the $185,400 median value of owner-occupied housing units in the United States.

I wonder how many of the Occupiers live in rent controlled apartments.....
That picture could easily been of my niece. Her parents are pretty well off, not outrageously as both have good jobs, but ensure she has everything: college in Europe, new car, nice apartment and the electromagnetic items one pines for. She is now a social worker for some lefty organization probably to her parents delight as both are Obamabats.
Thanksgiving dinner is always great, time for me to get in a few comments to get things rolling! I cannot wait.
