    9 questions to the Wall Street Occupiers

    Over the past month, the crusaders at Zuccotti Park have braved the elements, tussled with police, and stood their ground against Mayor Bloomberg. But how much do the protesters actually know about the economic system that they're fighting to change? To find out, we asked 50 occupiers a series of questions about Wall Street, taxes, and government. The results were mixed. See if you can do better.

    I believe I did better. Got all of 'em right, except the answer that is "subject to debate", of course. Curious part of the article is that, while it states the results were mixed, it fails to give the actual results. No average, median or other details on how well the protesters did on the questions.

    I tend to agree. There should have been a comparison
    To TEA members and the general public.
