Has There Ever Been An Issue Where Non-Union People, The Rich Or Repugs Have Taken To The Streets...

in recent history and protested in the proportions that we are seeing the people protest today in Michigan and where we saw people in
Wisconsin and Ohio protest recently?

Why is is all the protests are common folk, students, poor, union supporters, old and the sick, etc.

Just seems to me that if the Rich, Repugs on Non-Unionists are upset with government - that we would see them protesting in one way or another - but we never do.

The problem with the very wealthy is that while some might read history, they never learn from it. We are having multiple eat cake moments. You know what happened back then. People are having more and more reasons to fight.
