Video: Protesters Storm Stage and Interrupt Larry Summers for Conflict of Interest Payments
Larry Summers’ address before the Economic Club in Washington D.C. on Thursday was interrupted for several minutes as a group of protesters jumped on the stage and held up a large sign behind Summers’ head that said, “We Want Our $$$ Back!”
The protest came as Summers was addressing a question on whether a second stimulus would be needed, and it stopped the conversation in its tracks.
“Larry Summers is part of the problem,” screamed one of the activists. “He is a toxic mess.” They continued to heckle him for his conflict of intrests in making money from industry groups and/or business favored by bailouts.
