Sort of. There is no doubt that Washington has become unresponsive to 99% of the population.

However, the "occupy" crowd is becoming a poop magnet. Instead of decrying the subversion of democracy and a genuine free market, they simply despise anyone who has succeeded. With three jobs and over $100,000 a year in earnings, they despise me.

Where we differ is that I worked construction and repaired cars to get through undergrad, then worked a worse job to get through a masters & pay for flying. One morning my boss told me to get parts from a pile that had become an informal latrine. Doing so meant achieving my goals, so I did it.

Now I'm in the big house on the hill and still not safe from market uncertainty. IMHO, the "occupy" crowd needs to "man up" like the other 53% of us that pay our bills and pay taxes.

Atlas hasn't shrugged yet, but he's actively looking at offshore accounts.
