Now they just look like a bunch of college students who want the rest of us to forgive their student loans because they picked majors that aren't helping them land jobs. Poor babies. There are people who've been out in the workforce for decades who find themselves in tough staights... but annoying them by blocking their way into city hall or their work place or even when they are trying to have a nice day out at the park isn't helping anyone.
Only if you don't turn the channel off Fox "news". According to polls of the rest of the country, OWS is increasing in popularity the more people hear about it.
More Americans Supporting Occupy Wall Street
The survey, taken Oct. 28-31, shows more adult Americans saying they have heard of Occupy Wall Street than when the question was asked in early October. Sixty-four percent of respondents now say they've heard of the movement, compared to only 51% in the earlier poll.
The new poll also shows more Americans supporting the movement. Thirty-six percent say they agree with the overall positions of Occupy Wall Street, while 19% say they disagree.
That reflects an increase in support since early October, when 27% of those polled said they agreed with Occupy Wall Street's position.
64% of the respondents say they've "heard" of the movement? That translates into supporting it? That's quite amusing, Sea. I imagine an even larger number have heard of the KKK but that doesn't mean they support the Klan.
Most Americans don't have the faintest idea what the OWS protestors WANT because the OWS protesters themselves don't know what they want. So when they've got a clear agenda and some workable solutions to the problems we face then get back to me. Until then it's just a bunch of idiots getting arrested because it's a "cool" thing to do.
