Occupy Chicago is looking for a few good floors. The Occupy Wall Street spinoff has been waiting for the angry masses to arrive for the upcoming NATO Summit and needs places for protesters to camp. Windy City airwaves have been carrying sound bites of Occupy organizers asking for donations of space in church basements, warehouses, and back yards.

The next time you see footage of protesters befouling parks, clashing with police, and raving about injustice, ask yourself a question. If you were a business owner looking for new employees, could you convince yourself that a haircut or a trip to the laundry would change the belief that being an American means living off of the grace of the government, and by taxing and regulating those symbols of wealth with which protesters find fault?

What does the partisan symbol of Wall Street mean to those with enough time on their hands to be milling in the streets, shouting at cameras in the middle of a work day? Wall Street protests show how successful Democrats have been at exploiting joblessness, and deflecting anger that should be focused on them.
