Which is a creative way of saying people are paid to protest. It need not be much, when people don't have jobs they can be pretty resourceful in picking up some quick cash. Get $300, maybe you spend $50 (or less)...nice profit for a few days work. Maybe you have to BS your way thru a report, maybe you'll be excluded from future funding...doesn't matter, that's cash money today.
I mean, c'mon, that money could easily be used to provide food and resources on site. They know exactly what they are doing giving this money out for people to "buy" that on their own. ACORN is well aware that even small financial incentives can significantly boost "grass roots" movements.
