Occupiers are spending their May Day tormenting private businesses and decrying “corporate greed.”
They’ve even made it a hashtag and it’s trending. Well, only because someone paid for it to become a “promoted” trend as we noted earlier — which can cost up to an estimated $120,000 per day.

Who’s behind it? Well, the Communications Workers of America union tweeted the hashtag last night. And, yes, they used hard-earned workers’ dues to pay to promote the tweet:
What's #verigreedy Verizon Wireless got in store for you? To start, a new $30 fee! http://t.co/3BAv6lTx #CorporateGreed #FightForGoodJobs
