So many political and media elites want to know what Occupy "wants." Dr. Jeffrey Sachs spoke at San Francisco's Commonwealth Club last month, and he spoke effectively about equality--economic and social--and the means to achieve that equality by increasing a variety of taxes (private, corporate) by what would be about 4% of the GDP. That new revenue would be plugged into education, social services, etc. Very exciting stuff, very specific, and one way to answer the question "what does Occupy want."
