- The 99% of the American public just want to know. Who do the supposed elected officials in DC actually represent? Corporate American or Americans. Why, do corporations get to flee the country in order to pay close to nothing in taxes while the average American pays about 30% of his or her hard earned wages toward supporting our country???? Why, do corporations get preferred treatment in Washington through lobbyists? Why, are banks so large and powerful? Who is sleeping with who (corporations and politicians)? This is what needs to be focused on. This is the crux of the problem. This is the AIM. Fix that and watch the abuses begin to clean themselves up.

- As a start, banks need to stop whining about Dodd-Frank. The financial industry has made it clear - with their past Las Vegas speculation - that it is incapable of policing itself.

- You begin this article "It started out as just a handful of protesters near Wall Street." Do a little bit of research, CBS. It did not start out on Wall Street. It started on the internet in July. This "spontaneous" protest is backed by communists and socialists. The occupywallst.org website was set up on July 14, 2011...check the whois on it. The donations go through Alliance for Global Justice, a socialist charity organization that backed the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. The website for October2011, the sister group who is also funded by AGJ was set up in May. This is an orchestrated movement, not a spontaneous one. Do some research....you are reporters...isn't that YOUR job?
