Students storm Goldman Sachs building in Milan
Source: Reuters - Raw Story

MILAN (Reuters) – A group of students stormed Goldman Sachs’s central Milan offices on Friday ahead of worldwide protests against financial inequality planned for the weekend.

The Italian demonstrations are the latest bout of anger at banks and financiers as outcry spreads throughout the world following the occupation of Wall Street inNew York by protesters over the past month.

Students managed to break into the hall of the Goldman Sachs building in the heart of Milan’s financial district, a few steps away from La Scala opera house, police said.


The protests were quickly dispersed by police and security was restored to the elegant building, though red graffiti was daubed on its walls expressing anger at Italy’s Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and proclaiming “Give us money.”

23. The "let them eat cake!" attitude is so apparent.
We are entering a ''let them eat cake'' moment...because that is how far out of touch they are. The revolution has begun. They will try to stop it, and they won't be able to.
