That's the cost of securing an Occupy protest of 10 in the swanky town of Darien, ConnecticutÂ
It's not often the 1 percent become the 99 percent. But that's what happened in Darien, Connecticut. Darien, by some measures the richest town in Connecticut, played host to a ten-person Occupy protest today.
"It makes sense to protest here against the extreme concentration of wealth, where the wealth is most concentrated," Bennett Weiss, an Occupy-hopper from upstate New York, told the Daily Darien. Weiss came prepared with buttons. Others gave speeches. One person held a sign extolling the virtues of ending the wars and taxing the rich.
