Anyone with a 401(k) or pension should visit at least one shareholder meeting this month with a pitchfork - or at least a plastic picnic fork - and demand accountability from the corporate elite, particularly in the financial sector, before they eat any

Thank you, Nancy, for bringing up this article. Teabaggers are "bagging" the wrong people, here's where anger needs to be expressed. These people steal money right from under our noses, disguised as "bonuses".

I wonder though how many people actually have 401ks and such in order to take their pitchforks to the meeting!

Now that is sounding like a proper witch hunt!
