CNN's poll is asking "Are you familiar with the issues behind the G8 summit". 58% said "No". Perhaps the protesting will help motivate more to educate themselves.

True, that would be great. But how many of the remaining 42 percent consider themselves educated, but are nevertheless content to mindlessly repeat mickey mouse platitudes and propaganda spoon-fed to them from on high, and who couldn't pass a rudimentary econ 101 test if their lives depended on it? More analysis, less rhetoric. ~Faustine.
