Response to Robison's "Occupied"

"Economic justice" is a non-sequitur.

The "Occupy Wall Street" masses have every right to be upset.

But they are directed their rage at the wrong people.

True, Wall Street linked firms benefited from bailouts, refusing to release the injection of Washington liquidity that was supposed to stave off a widespread banking crisis.

With the ascent of Progressivism on steroids in the White House and during the first two years of the Obama Administration, the financial sectors of this country are no longer being directed from New York City, but Washington D.C., where mounting regulations and government mandates are throttling innovation, industry, and job growth.

Let the "99%" get mad, but let them direct their frustration at the 1% political class in Washington, not the job creators in Wall Street.
