Wall Street Protests

There doesn't have to specific changes for a movement to have an impact, especially if you consider who controls economic regulations. The Tea Party didn't solve the US debt problem but they did a good job of bringing the issue national attention. OWS has brought national attention to other issues, even without politicians representing them. That can be considered a success within itself, obviously depending on the person's standard of success.

Two grassroot movements have popped up in the past three years and both have spread like a wildfire, which says a lot of about how people are feeling about our current economic state.
