My favorite part of the Occupy discrediting via the mainstream media?
Foxnews et al actually convinced poor, aging christian conservatives- ie ignorant people who have children w/ no future, people who would most benefit from an undercutting of corporate fascism- that occupy was some laughable hippie movement. They picked out the craziest folks from the crowds and put a spotlight on them to belittle the cause.
And of course, being dumb and ignorant, it worked.
You see poor/lower middle class folks with no future beyond blue collar work at best mocking the very cause that could change the future of their childrens' lives forever.
It's a sad circle.

It has to be organized events well control to avoid the stigma that occupy got shortly after start that be a mass of people attending a 60's type happening. They came; they saw;they trashed and then they left.
Aren't you a self employed greedy capitalist now who recently started your own company ?
You should quit work and protest in the streets.
I'm so greedy I keep prices low, pay my employees good wages, and pay my customer's sales tax to keep prices low. I'm hiring 2 additional part time employees this week.
I care about more than just myself obviously.
What point were you making again? Do you have anything to contribute to the thread?
It will not be Occupy. It will not be the TEA party (Palin and Bachmann's tea party) - who ironically augmented the problems within the establishment.
It will happen when 90% of Americans are wounded enough to warrent a revolution of sorts.
Right now there is still too much complacency in the middle class.
You only need more than 50% and they did just that when they elected Obama. Yep, they got over 50% and through Obama the people attacked the middle class. Go figure

Remember when they said 'Every time you kick us out we will be back with greater numbers'? LOL
