Why did the protest of clueless rich kids (who else can afford to spend 30 days outside in Manhattan without going to work? None of my friends, for sure) got elevated to a Movement?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pretty much any unemployed kid who lives with his parents - wealthy or otherwise- can afford to protest as long as he likes. and again, if they could find a job, they wouldn't have to be out there protesting in the cold. it is unlikely that the protestors are spoiled rich brats, for their parents could have easily used their influence and connections to secure gainful employment for their progeny. furthermore, I doubt that the rich (unlike these kids) would have to concern themselves with the weight of student loans looming over their heads.
