“They’re just like us except they’re living in tents in a park downtown,’’ I said, knowing instantly that wasn’t going to fly. “I’ve seen pictures, Daddy,’’ said Julia. “They’re not just like us. And if they are, why don’t we live in a tent in a park downtown?’’ D’oh! Clearly, it was time to visit Dewey Square so my 11-year-old daughter could see for herself what Occupy Boston is all about, to hear what the protesters are saying about “corporate greed’’ and “income disparity.’’

Nice piece. Tosh1 is part of the one percent. His family is uber wealthy.

Young Socialists in training... When will you be exposing your daughter to capitalism and creation of "real" jobs?
