Occupy wa... Ahh shit...
And that was Obama.
I think people want to remember that as part of the Bush years (or... At least I know I do).
That was undone on Obama watch.
I had friends there. Obvious feds fucked that shit up from the inside out. Thanks Obama
It was in that fuzzy in between time right after Bush nationalized half the financial sector and right before Obama sold it back to the investor class at small profit/large loss (depending on how you weight the massive cut in interest rates as subsidy).
