Mr. Greene goes to #OWS


Real estate billionaire Jeff Greene, who enjoys some truly interesting Hollywood friends such as Oliver Stone, Heidi Fleiss, and Mike Tyson, recently got a chance to visit New York City and Occupy Wall Street.

These are some of the things he discovered and commented on: 
"To me Occupy Wall Street is symbolic ... right now it's like a college sit-in"

"It looks like a street fair to me ... people are buying cookies, musicians are singing"

"To me it's much ado about nothing ... they complained about the 1% versus the 99% and how the 1% rules government, and I said that it only takes 51% to put the person you want in office."
