What's all that then? Turns out the person who wrote this sign is referring to this article by Think Progress writer Zaid Jilani, who put our current economic disparity in focus with an article drawn from a number of sources.

All of which would be way too technical for some folks, as Matt Stoller observed:

You're even providing citations. What a well-sourced revolution. #OccupyDC I bet other revolutions give you wedgies.

Yes, I think all those jocks and prom queens who never needed to learn things like spelling and grammar probably would have hung the person who wrote that first sign up by his suspenders in the classroom closet all night.
