I support occupy wall street. I think that the movement lacks a specific direction, you're right. But that's what I'd want. I hardly ever have a conversation with someone and find that we're entirely on the same page, movements that whittle down general beliefs into one or two demands seem like they are coercing their participants. Policymaking demands that kind of simplification, rallying doesn't. I think there is a general direction. Students are sick of debt, the middle class is stunned that programs they had enjoyed are being cut in part because of risky investment on wall street. Others seem to be sick of trying to "pull themselves by the bootstraps".
I saw a billboard that said "Bill Gates founded Microsoft during a recession" What does this mean? We're just not trying hard enough to be obscenely wealthy? I don't think the people who have been at wall street can be convinced that they just have to try harder.
