Don't just 'occupy', go forward to 'lead' the game! In contrast to Arab spring where it was possible to kick-off the ass of the man in power to reflect the serious and urgency of required change, you don't have any ass to kick-off; Wall Street has nothing to offer in this perspective! You need a leadership and a list of real and concrete demands to communicate. The first list was too smooth and vague; any pseudo-intellectual collegian can bring this vague and 'all-in' list on the table!

Funny, I was just thinking that. What is OWS doing? What if the establishment just waits you out? Are you going to stay there a year? Two? Make a permanent shanty town? The 1% won't care if all you do is hangout in a park.

You are right Jack. What most fail to realize is that this is the beginning of a National Movement. A Revolution against the Corrupt Control the Banks have over our Government. The shanty town is symbolic of a greater movement that is starting to get focused. Just like any revolution it has to start with an angry mob. As the mob gathers and converges their voices start to mingle. Their voice starts to become a shout, and that shout starts to be an anthem. We are headed down a dark road of Financial War that will shake this country to it's very core. That is what it will take to shake off the yoke of control that the Feudalistic Capitalist Kings and Queens have on our Democratic Republic. We the People want our Government back. We are fine with Capitalism as an Economy, but we are not okay with it as a Government.

The difference between the 'Arab Spring' and the OWS clutter... and why they won't have a leader with any worth step up, is due to the fact that all they know is: "I'm pissed" The AS were movements to overthrow dictators. Once the OWS movement realizes that their complaints are unfounded, they will disperse...

Let the meaningless fall to the wayside. Or, be meaningful, and take life by the horns
