I think that "Occupy Wall Street" is well intentioned but another example of firing your gun at the wrong target. They are all pissed off at Wall Street for buying off the government and taking advantage of government policies, when they should be "Occupying Washington" and directing their anger at the government which allowed itself to be bought off and which created the policies that enriched Wall Street.
But Wall Street is where Obama and the Democrats have been pointing their collective finger of blame, so that is where protesters direct their anger. When Wall Street is gone the government will still be screwing the people.
That's also where the pols get a lot of campaign money, so they can beat their chest all they want to, but most of it is for show.
