If they make 300 grand a month what are they going to do with it? Are all the protesters as dumb as the one that got his mac stolen? Is there really a definitive goal to this whole thing or are people just joining in because they want more money?
300k a month, wtf? As I stated before Ive read some articles and am open to all sides but I asked for people's opinions. Clearly you don't know much, read my edit.

Well it's been about a month since they started and if they raised 300,000 already why wouldn't the donations keep coming in? Or why not more if the cause is so important?

My opinion is as I stated in my first post, people whining about how the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Are you listening to yourself? I never said the donations stopped...

Just from Chicago which was today/yesterday they raised 14k.

Here is more about what they are using the money for:

You cant base a monthly average on just one month alone...

Even if it was just 100 thousand or 10 thousand, I still don't understand what the main goal is or what they are going to spend money on other than supplying their own protesters with food and tents and forced sex from guys named Leland.
