I think occupy wall street protesters are ignorant. Some their demands have nothing to do with wall street. Most of the problems are caused by the gov.
Here is their plan. Does not sound like ignorance to me. There maybe even some things in there that you may agree with.

I agree. The root of their problem is government, but since they are socialists whose primary religion is the worship of government, they cannot bring themselves to criticize what they love so much. So they blame people that have absolutely nothing to do with their problem.
Meanwhile Obama has just expanded NAFTA even further and has wiped out a whole job category for the American people and not a peep out of the OWS protestors. If they are too stupid to see what's taking place, their protests are hollow and meaningless. Meanwhile Obama is busy selling out the American people to foreign and corporate interests, working as hard as he can to crush the American middle class and put our lives at risk.
Do you even know what a sell-out your president is? And anyone who still supports him is just spouting hot air if they pretend they care about jobs for the American people.
In spite of sky high unemployment rates, Obama is doing all he can to expand NAFTA and bring in more cheap foreign workers. And none of you Obama supporters are sincere.
You have your liberal Acorn president in the White House selling out the American people and you have your way.

Yep... NAFTA of the Pacific. Obama and his admin pushed HARD for it. What's up with that?

If they really want what they say they do, they wouldn't support Obama. It's not about the actual issues affecting the American people with them; it's all about the politics.
their dupes, big business is just using them, same with "taxing the rich movements", all of the top will come out with more money in the end and that is what the top is up to; as that philosopher said, "a sucker born every minute"
When with Occupy Wall Street protesters march to Occupy Washington?
Washington and Wall Street and inextricably linked. The OWS people have been occupying every other part of the country except where it matters most- in Washington DC.
If OWS is serious about ending corruption of big banks and the Corporatization of the US they need to start Occupying Washington DC streets and in front of the White House.
Unfortunately that means they'll have to criticize their hero Obama who was paid millions by corporations and banks in campaign contributions, but this isn't about politics is it? It's about the erosion of middle-class America and that encompasses every group not just spoiled white liberal hipsters crying how they can't afford their daily Venti white chocolate mocha Starbucks coffee anymore.
Cain and Geist don't get the Occupy Wall Street movement because it is anything but about Washington. One thing that's become clear to me, being on site at two Occupy communities (I'm visiting Philly and NYC today and tomorrow) is that people no longer have faith in elected officials. Get corporations out of government, get corporate money out of elections are very common signs and chants. The members of the Occupy communities see the Occupy movement as an alternative, as an extra-legislative approach to making change happen. Members of congress, overall are failing to respond to the interests and needs of their constituents, instead, taking care of the corporations who pay their campaign TV advertising budgets.
When people like Eric Cantor suggest that Obama or Occupy Wall Street people are engaging in class warfare, he's right. To suggest that they started it is totally dishonest. They are fighting back against the forces Cantor represents-- corporatist forces.
Bottom line, Cain doesn't get why his admonition for Occupy Wall Street should go to the White House is the exact opposite of what the Occupy Movement is all about.
Oh come on. Obama didn't do this. His crime is doing nothing about it. This started way back when Nixon was president, and it was perpetuated by all of our subsequent "leaders" since then. Ronny Ray-gun included.
1. Bring back real capitalism (no more bailouts). Bring back real captitalism. 2. End "too big to fail" banks. Restore competition. 3. Get Wall Street money out of the legislative process. Take Congress back from Wall Street.
Wow. If I didn't know any better I'd think the Occupiers were really Tea Partiers, since they both want some of the same things.
But that can't be because the mainstream media insists that the Tea Party is "racist" while ignoring the blatant and obvious antisemitism of the Occupiers. hmmm
To occupy DC would be to admit it was caused by the jackasses and corrupt policies they themselves endorsed. Easier to blame someone else.
In the 60's, all protests started or went to DC! Wonder what the children on OWS are afraid of there?
