Chicago Board of Trade Trolling The Occupy Movement

The Consumerist - To tweak the noses of protesters involved in the "Occupy Chicago" movement, someone has placed signs in the windows of the Chicago Board of Trade that say, "We are the 1%." The Chicago Board of Trade is the nation's oldest mercantile exchange.

Fantastic. Trolling at its best.

I’m not supporting the 1%’ers, but this is pretty hilarious, even though there is no way in hell those guys are the 1%’ers. 

I happen to know for a fact one percenters occupy corner offices and have better resources available than the backsides of cardboard boxes and sharpies. I mean even I was able to make a graphical chart in my spare time at work the otherday…one percenters probably have whole divisions of minimum wage workers under them just making up bar charts at their every whim.

But still, funny joke all the same.
