"Several dozen Occupy DC protesters rolled out the human red carpet for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s holiday party at their Washington, DC headquarters this evening. The Chamber is the nation’s largest corporate lobby group. As guests entered, protesters shouted, “You walk on our rights, now walk on us!” encouraging attendees to trample on the activists laying underneath the red carpet painted with “99%.” No one did, sadly, at least while ThinkProgress was in attendance."

There are a lot of hard working small businesses that go to this. I don't think you should be hurting them. Occupy Congress and start questioning LAWS.

Make new laws to protect this us. Citigroup etc did everything legally. It should be illegal. We can only wish to Vote out the greed because voting is riged. :( Demand justice from the government.
