The campaign has really surprised me. I am really excited to see people discussing problems in a peaceful, intelligent, and community oriented manner.
Join in solidarity with the OccupyWallSt at Occupy Together
If it suits your fancy, columbusites are starting an OccupyColumbus. Event on Sat and 2nd General Assembly is on Tuesday 6:30p near Mirror Lake at OSU.
As you can see, I have really looked into the campaign.

That's right, nobody can predict the moment of revolution ... but I bet it will be sometime between getting kicked out of mom's basement and being told by your girlfriend that you will need to start helping out with the rent.

Can anyone tell me when we went from;

Ever watch a debate (either party) and feel like wtf are these people talking about? People feel drastically different about issues and no way for their views to enter the discussion. I'm not talking about anarchy or a return to the 1800s. To me, wrecking the economy, being bailed out, foreclosing on homes, moving jobs overseas all while preventing basic laws that existed for 66 years all in the name of making 1% more money and faux 'free market' economics doesn't make sense and is upsetting. I just don't hear any debate/consensus on the issues and what they mean for our communities and moneyed interest seems to be the reason.

I get it – people are angry. Very, very angry. I’m angry too. And Wall Street sure makes a great scapegoat, hence the Occupy Wall Street protest. Wall Street is a symbol of the “greed and corruption” that took over America and caused this whole mess.But let’s take a minute to examine the facts and see if we can’t find some better scapegoats:
Dear Occupy Wall Street: Are you sure you are in the right place?

im hearing that a lot as well,and there's blame to go around,that's for sure.
i believe wall st is the poster child of corruption with power,and that's what these people are protesting.

What these people are doing is building, for lack of a better word, a church of dissent. It’s not a march, though marches are spinning off of the campground. It’s not even a protest, really. It is a group of people, gathered together, to create a public space seeking meaning in their culture. They are asserting, together, to each other and to themselves, “we matter”.
