Why not "make an example" of (BP, Bof A, Exxon, GE, whoever) and close your account/ don't buy from (boycott) one at a time, warn the other companys you're next, if concentrated it will have effect. When dealing with sociopaths force is the only way, cut off cash and these entities will pay attention pronto. The police can't make you buy from BP or whoever you target can they??

I dont think OWS folks have the economic means to make a meaningful impact on any of those companies. This movement is like 0.9%, not 99%.

Reminds me of the old joke about the young bull and the old bull.

Why don't we just walk down there and bleep them all?

Unfortunately, that will show more than a brush of a feather on these big conglomerates. In fact, most of them have the power to go behind our backs to print the money to keep themselves in business. In fact, most Americans are oblivious to what is actually happening. Our way around this is by using Article V of the constitution. Check out the idea here.
