[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 889762, member: 12570"] We shouldn't be so quick to dismiss what Klein has to say on this subject. This goes way beyond Main St USA. The gap between the "haves" and the "have nots" has never been wider. We had our local "Occupy Plattsburgh" general assembly yesterday. About 150 people representing all age groups and backgrounds were there. Speakers included people who participated in OWS. The attendees then broke down in to smaller groups to focus on a single issue, which included hyrdofracking, health care, keeping track of the media and community involvement. They then came together to march around the downtown area to raise awareness to their cause. They were peaceful and left the park as clean as when they first arrived. Do I think that these demonstrations will bring substantive change? Unfortunately I do not but if awareness is raised and their issues are addressed then perhaps they can be termed a success.
