The Occupy movement has been broken up in most cities at this point, primary as a measure of public safety. There is a new arm of the movement that just tickles my heart, as I believe they are honing in on the real targets in this injustice.
With so many Americans fighting to keep their homes despite foreclosure, a few have smartly invited the Occupy movement into their homes for a sit-in against Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac. There are encampments surrounding individual homes which for me, means that the participants will be able to remain more cleanly and comfortable, and they will really start pissing people off, starting with the home-owners associations.
One other note of the movement to date: they advocated a move your money day, when hundreds of thousands removed their capital from the larger banks that received a bailout, and placed the money into local-owned banks. Unfortunately, it looks as though that will back-fire, as the majority of accounts lost were a negative on the banks books, and thus it was a small gift to them to walk away.
The march goes on.
