Marching is completely ineffective in increasing the equity of working people in our world. The only effective action is to shut down the apparatus of state and business until effective negotiations occur and greater equity for working people is achieved.
Perhaps you are correct but creating a confrontational stance that could lead to violence is a bit premature & not in the movement's best interest. We are growing & with more support we could have these institutions shuting down from within. Patience. Beside marching keeps you from getting cold, bored & keeps you visible to more people.
You are completely mistaken and there is nothing in history that proves you are correct.

Do you actually think anyone has to negotiate with the OWS? I predict you all go running home at the first sign of cold weather. You all should move the protest to Mexico City for the winter.
