Workers of the world party crash!
Protesting in front of the Waldorf Astoria apparently was not enough for the tens of protestors from organizations with misleading names like the Working Families Party. This afternoon the protestors stormed the ballroom where 1,000 analysts and investors were gathered for a private equity conference sponsored by Dow Jones.
The protestors were armed with banners emblazoned with rhetorical questions, snarky signs and rhyming chants. They were quickly hustled out by actual working people who realized that every private equity job pays for about five other jobs in New York City, including security guards.

mmmmm…street meat
One should not engage in finance with the poor. In fact, this brouhaha indicates that one should not let the poors read newspapers: it puts ideas into their pointy little heads.
The streat Meat down on Wall is further east, probably right next to where the photographer was standing, whilst eating.
“whilst” Anal_yst, that cracks me up. That’s it, today is UK Day. I’ll answer the phone all day with “Goldman’s” and use whilst.
