Protests against welfare for Wall Street

September 25, 2008 by

An email from Manhattan: “I just walked by the New York Stock Exchange. Hundreds of demonstrators have gathered to protest the government’s bailout of Wall Street. Several were holding placards that read “Stop the bailout! Read The Road to Serfdom by FA Hayek. Read mises.org ” They were also handing out copies of Ron Paul’s 2002 speech introducing his bill to eliminate subsidies to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Here is one of hundreds of news stories.

Heck yeah! Add flying ponies, and I’d definitely turn out for that!

Peaceful protestors gathered near the bull statue with anti-capitalism signs, including pictures of Karl Marx. Many other signs were critical of President Bush.

Will Americans wake up now? Will we take back our country? Are you ready?
