Obama Shows Support for #OccupyWallStreet

President Obama speaks about the #OccupyWallStreet protests for the first time, and appears to be down with the cause.

“Obviously I’ve heard of it, I’ve seen it on television. I think it expressed the frustrations that the American people feel that we had the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, huge collateral damage all throughout he country, all across Main Street, and yet you’re still seeing some of the same folks who acted irresponsibly trying to fight efforts to crack down on abusive practices that got us into this problem in the first place. So yes I think people are frustrated and the protestors are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works.”
