"Alliance against the productive"

The best piece I've seen so far on the Occupy movement:

The city's feckless political class are collaborating with anarchists against the taxpayers who maintain them in their sinecures.

When the rumor spread that the Whole Foods store, of all unlikely corporate villains, had threatened to fire employees who participated in the protest, the Regional President David Lannon took to Facebook: "We totally support our Team Members participating in the General Strike today – rumors are false!" But, despite his "total support", they trashed his store anyway, breaking windows and spray-painting walls.
