Occupy Wall Street officially became a project of the Washington, D.C.-based Alliance for Global Justice on Sept. 28, 11 days after protesters began camping out at the park. The status allows the alliance to process donations on the movement's behalf, and makes it responsible for tax reporting. http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/occupy-wall-street-money-donations-winter-20111018-apx

wonder who will walk off with all those electronics paid for with donated funds in the end?

How Ironic:

The alliance takes 7 percent of each credit card donation. That gets split between the credit card companies' fees and the salary of the alliance's accountant, Kaufman said.

since that exceeds the NCUA insurance limit, I wonder if they just have invested it in say.. mutual funds? LOL Surely they are getting a good return on it.
