More importantly, it's about cleaning up the crap on Wallstreet and the fat cats who work there. I can always get behind that.

Yes, it was inspired by the Arab Spring. Not a new idea by any means (orchestrating via social media) but will a country like the US allow this to continue before they essentially go in and snuff it out? I am 100% behind it and will be doing some research this weekend on how I can contribute to the cause (food, medical supplies, what not) but I also feel like this is a huge David vs. Goliath situation, given how entrenched corporations are and the influence they have on politics in the US.
