All classes of people want what's best for them and fuck anyone else. In this framework the only people whose demands are moral and just are the working class, because they're the only ones who don't want anything that would harm anyone else (and no, paying huge-ass taxes on your millions is not "harm").
And something else. I'm continuously amused by the protestors' opinions and views. Because they're quite anti-capitalist, even though every second high-profile protestor places him/herself strictly in the right on the political spectrum. And yet they demand that institutions and media prioritise morals over profits, and some express indignation with the people who make a buck out of the thousands of protesters by selling them whistles or ice-cream. Well that's capitalism, that's the free market. Cash is king. If you don't like it, you're not as right-wing as you imagine. Right has an ideological meaning too, it's not merely a historical or a moral indicator.
