When it comes to party affiliation, 70 percent of Occupy Wall Streeters label themselves "independent."

And : 25% of Occupy Wall Streeters Don't Plan to Vote in 2012.

Occupy Wall Streeters Aren't Republicans?Or Democrats - Politics - GOOD

Seem to be plenty of Communists and Socialist in the group attempting to crush Capitalism. Are they classified as independent too?

And that is why nothing will change. Government creates the rules of the game and if you want the game changed then get the right people to DC.

Crying in the streets will NOT get you change. Tantrums don't work in real life.

You haven't researched what you stand behind ?
Where is all the money coming from ?
Who is organizing this with the groups and bank accounts and incorporations ?
Who is behind the legal backing of the group ?

YOU need to do your research and make sure the group you back is really what you think my friend.

The Tea Party started off as grassroots too in case you forgot but was soon hijacked by some very public groups.
The OWS..well let's just say they are staying in the shadows on this one.

Just as I thought you have nothing of substance to say.
