As we all know the core of the Occupy Wallstreet movement was getting paid. As winter went and made the unpaid extras go away, we found Occupy getting more frantic.

So recently a comparison was made with the paid actors of the Jerry Springer show.

I think it apt.

These low paid actors (though the Unions got okish pay) try hard to put on a show with a lot of chanting (reminiscent of the Jerry, Jerry, Jerry chants), the occassional violence tossed in (real in this case however) and every bit of confusion about their lines (aka protest outside CPAC) as Springer actors have.

The main difference is of course the smell... smells like cheap labor for a corrupt party to me.
