TV Commercial Mocks 'OWS' - "Join the 1%"

"Join the 1%"

Now, it is apparently open season on Occupy.

In recent weeks, DealBook has noticed a commercial for Interactive Brokers that, six months ago, may have been considered too irreverent. The commercial, which has been shown repeatedly on CNBC, adopts the imagery of Zuccotti Park to hawk Interactive Brokers’ trading services, and ends with the tagline: “Join The One Percent.”

I thought some people here may be entertained by this.

 
unslain:
I legitimately didn't realize the 'Occupy' movement was still active.
They went inside when it got cold and no, I'm not kidding. Talk about dedication.
If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses - Henry Ford
