Merc, this time you're on the losing side with your attacks aimed at OWS.

No, the OWS protests failed. They cost the cities millions of taxpayer dollars and in this case closed an independent business and put people out of work. You may think it is nothing more than collateral damage on the way to some larger gain, but that larger gain by the OWS protests failed to do anything. You can bitch and whine about the larger economy but the problem is not in Wall St. It is in government. The point of the spear is pointed in the wrong direction.
