Tea-Baggin'

Apparently Wall Street has had enough of being incredibly oppressed, and staged it's own version of a Tea Party.
And so a rally was organized at lunchtime on the 23rd floor of 14 Wall Street, directly across the street from the New York Stock Exchange, in the cushy offices of John Thomas Financial, a three-year-old investment house. It was much more comfortable than, say, the street.

As Thomas Belesis, the 35-year-old chief executive of John Thomas who hatched the idea, put it, “It’s cold out.”

Since the rally was held on the firm’s 25,000-square-foot trading floor, where some 100 brokers had their desks, most of the attendees were basically working.

The fact that virtually all of the virtually all-male attendees wore suits and ties did make the gathering perhaps the best-dressed rally in history.

Awesome. "It's cold out"!!  Dying. These people may be full of shit, but, as we already know, they're smart enough to know that it's the idiots that they're screwing over that will happily do the heavy lifting for them. Cap doffed!
