New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg slammed the Occupy Wall Street protesters on Friday, saying their attacks on banks could harm one of the city’s major employers.
“Everyone’s got a thing they want to protest, some of which is not realistic,” Bloomberg said during his weekly Friday radio show, according to The Village Voice. “And if you focus for example on driving the banks out of New York City, you know those are our jobs … You can’t have it both ways: If you want jobs you have to assist companies and give them confidence to go and hire people.”
The protesters, the mayor said, are not directing their attacks at the right place and could put workers out of jobs.
“The protests that are trying to destroy the jobs of working people in this city aren’t productive,” Bloomberg said.

Ha! Ha! Bloomberg!
New York City is going to need a Bailout LOL.
Bloomers is such a wussy.
Nanny Bloomberg practically invited these “yoots” to come in and demonstrate for more government, more wealth redistribution, more “social justice” when he thought it would further his agenda.
When the guy doing the talking is an idiot himself, that is even more difficult.
one day, maybe, Bloomberg is going to realize that nobody cares what he has to say.
How completely clueless is Bloomberg? This is so clueless its funny. Does this dope think that these little Communists care about keeping bank jobs in the city? They want to nationalize the banks and pass out the money to every lazy bum with who has his hand out. And Bloomberg responds as if he’s responding to a city councilman proposing an ordinance that will hurt banks’ profit margins.
LOL!!
Bloomie argues with passion that NYC needs to keep bank jobs ..... so it can continue to pay its municipal workers
Hey Bloomie, the communists whose brainwashed followers are camping in Manhattan have your address and eventually, maybe sooner than you think, they are coming for you. YOu are, to them, just another rich Jew
Maybe a mosque will offer you sanctuary
So how long did it take him to figure this out? ;-)
Instead he gave the inch that let them take the yard...and now every derelict taker wants to wear the "I occupied" badge. If they can't get to NYC then LA will do, or DC or SF...
Forget the banks, mike. Are they getting illegal amounts of salt and trans fats in their donated food?
“Michael Bloomberg tells Occupy Wall Street protesters to lay off banks...”
...and go after salt!
