Information Diet: A Case for Conscious Consumption

OWS's
Beef: Wall Street Isn't Winning - It's Cheating.
by Matt Taibbi
"Think about it: there have always been rich and poor people in
America, so if this is about jealousy, why the protests now? The idea

the rich – after keeping it strategically hidden for decades –
is crazy."
