More people who have pursued education and who want to move up are finding themselves stuck in these jobs as Obamanomics grinds along.
The number of people who feel stuck and frustrated over this is growing. Eventually they will give up looking for that next rung on the ladder and turn their energies towards squeezing everything they can out of whatever job they’ve got now.
These protests are the start of that trend IMO. Priming large numbers of low-skilled workers to accept unionization and leverage the fact that their votes will get them bigger raises than their work performance will.
BTW, the Pubbies have caved on the NRLB appointments. Son of Card Check coming soon.

There is some of that I would agree.
But it is also to some degree the deplorable education that the average American gets in public schools.
The only education in economics these protestors ever got is probably from these Union agitators. And of course that education would be centered around management exploitation of the worker and living wage theories. Totally absent from this education would be cost, profit margin and competition.
