OWS: I'm Just Surprised It Has Taken This Long

I felt the same outrage for three years working on The Big Short. Although I had this Wall Street background, I hadn't paid very much attention to the financial world.

I'm surprised it has taken this long for the political energy to develop, because it's so obviously outrageous what is happening. There are people at the top of the financial sector who think that the financial sector is out of control. The Chairman of the Federal Reserve has said he is sympathetic to the protesters. - in GQ Magazine
