The process is still occurring and the face of occupy has transformed. There is still substantial change being made by the Occupy movement. This process will last years and there will be waves of interest like everything else.

Mario, wealth doesn't create jobs! Governments doen't create jobs! The rich don't create jobs! Money in the hands of consumers creates jobs! If there's nobody there to buy your good or service it doesn't matter how rich you are, you aren't going to create any jobs! Loving you!

Supreme Leader of Islamic Republic of Iran Ali Khamenei about People of America (12/Oct/2011) : The event that is happening in America is an important event. The movement known as "Occupy Wall Street", which has created excitement among the American people, is important. They tried to present this movement as insignificant and they are still trying to do so. Until two, three weeks after the movement, among all important newspapers of America, only one newspaper published a report on this movement. The rest of their newspapers stayed silent. The same gentlemen who claim to support freedom of expression, the same people who hugely magnify everything that happens in every part of the world - of course only if this is in line with their policies - stayed completely silent about such a great movement. But they realized that they did not have a choice. They were forced to report the news. They were forced to do so by thousands of people who have gathered on Wall Street in New York and in other cities and states of America. Of course they want to ride the waves of the movement. In any case, the issue is an important issue.

theautisticgeek, the employment rate is artificially low and has been for years! They only include those individuals actively seeking employment. Those who've lost hope and stopped looking aren't considered unemployed even though they don't have a "job!" Real unemployment rate is at least twice the number you posted! Also everyone needs to survive and thus by my definition everyone's employed! For example simply surviving is a more important job than selling cell phones! Loving you!

Amazing.
We are the 99%
oh yeah, for those who don't know the choir check out the documentary: "What would Jesus Buy". It's very funny, clever and it's available on Google video.

Supreme Leader of Islamic Republic of Iran Ali Khamenei : One issue is that the corruption of capitalism has become tangible and visible to the people of America. They may manage to suppress this movement, but they cannot destroy the roots of the movement. After all, one day this movement will thrive to the extent that the capitalist system of America and the west will be completely razed to the ground. The brutality of the corrupt capitalist system is not just limited to the people of Afghanistan, Iraq and other countries. They do not even show mercy to their own people. In the thousands-strong demonstrations in New York, the people were carrying a placard which said, "We are the 99 percent." This means that 99 percent of the people of America have to follow the other one percent of the American population. The wars on Iraq and Afghanistan were waged by one percent of the American population, but the other 99 percent had to suffer the casualties and pay the money. This is what has awakened the people and made them protest. Of course the propaganda methods and the psychological warfare of American officials, the CIA and others are extremely oppressive and cruel. They might suppress the protests. But the truth was revealed and it will be revealed even more. Contrary to all those claims, this is what the capitalist system is. This is what western liberal democracy is.

@perrolaser "What Would Jesus Buy?" is great.

As long as money can corrupt men, new laws only stagnate the problem.
As long as money can be made on creating a myriad of the same product (TV's for example), with no regard to how much resources are left, it will only stagnate the problem.

It is very simple. We live on an island. There are no other hospitable islands around. We must monitor and use what resources are left with careful use, or fear the consequences. Money assists in the depletion of resources.
