YES! And we have to tap into this energy and sustain it.
I agree wholeheartedly. How do we do that? So important. I think we need a weekly protest march or sit in at a different location each time shining a light on corruption and demanding accountability.
We also need to take this message to a broader base and get them involved.

Excellent. The people are finding their voice, even in silence, thanks to OWS.
It does seem like the 99% are finding their voice. And oh how they're about to sing (mon-violently).
Damn right!! You go, Granny Brigade!!
If you or your friends have a grandma or grandpa who's participated in Occupy Wall Street in some way, please encourage them to post their experience and reasons here if they are do inclined. I'm sure many in this forum would love to read their stories.
Grandmas are still protesting since the sixties. Now, instead of being payed by some organization, they're using their social security checks to protest the world that keeps them alive. Brilliant! I love hippies! Sure gonna miss em when they're gone...not.
awesome find !!!
Grandmas rock!
