What do you protesters all hope to change with your protests? How will the protests help the wealthy become less rich and the poor become less destitute?
As for myself, I currently work a dead-end overnight job to support my modest lifestyle and I do hope that the future will provide better opportunities for everyone. I just don't understand what the concrete goals and solutions are with these protests.
Protest work, protest have changed things many times in history, it even set countries free.
For one, you, the US is one of the richest countries in the world and still your health-care is less than countries much more poor. In all European countries I know there is coverage for everyone, poor or rich. It is just one example of what could be changed in the US.

Don't forget Midwesterner that a great place to met women is at protests. You stand there, talk, flirt. You can even get away with asking to pay for dinner since you are broke.
