I'm sorry, but I just don't agree with that. This is the first time I've ever heard of that specific demand, and I've been actively seeking information about the movement.

Feel free to blame "the media," but I've personally asked more than a few people at Occupy to be specific about what they were demanding or what success looks like and I never heard anything like that. I heard a lot about jobs and employment. A bit about the banks having too much power. And one person talked a lot about middle east politics.

You've been looking for information, yet never read the original call to Occupy? Or were you just keeping an eye out for more background information in what is provided to you by the press?


The former. I just told you that I talked personally to Occupiers. I wonder how many of them are aware that an "original call to Occupy" even exists.
