It was probably on KPOJ (the progressive station), although it might have been on NPR. (In other words, it wasn't on some Morning Zoo-type program or anything like that.) It wasn't a long story but they quoted people who pointed out that dock workers are part of the 99%, and they're being penalized by the shutdown of those terminals--the dock workers had been told to stay home, and they weren't going to get paid.

That pissed ME off, and I support Occupy Portland 100%. I don't think that was a helpful move at all. Sure, the dock workers should have been paid because the circumstances were beyond their control, but they weren't--and those are real people's lives being affected negatively. I think being vocal about the principles of the 99% movement, rather than obstructing ordinary people's ordinary routines (because the 1% can afford to simply avoid any of the inconvenience), is a much better approach. Most of the 99% will be open to at least considering the message if the messenger isn't interfering with their lives.
