I have blogged once or twice about it
There was a march in my hometown supporting the basic principles of Occupy and it was comprised of a range of ages, political persuasions and economic situations. Mostly people are sick of the top 1% reaping aka stealing their entitlements: hard earned savings, pensions and benefits. We are taxed for Social Security and Medicare and many folks in the U.S. do feel a social responsibility for those less fortunate. It is not hand outs that are being sought but a hand up. Corporate welfare is unchecked in this nation but feeding a poor child and/or providing health care to a child from a poor family stirs unbelievable selfishness in some people. Hard to fathom. Bad and illegal activities have occurred at some of the Occupy protests; violence and racist displays have happened at other, supposedly righteous protests. A few bad apples, etc.

The basic moral agenda in America both democratic and republican is that you do not go out into the public arena supporting anything without knowing what you are representing... They do no! The other things we do not, as a country approve of, is open sex in the park; no approval of any group gathering for or against anything involving violence or the dealing of drugs. This group is mostly a paid group of those of low morals, high drug use, sexually inappropriate people. It makes no difference what they are for or against when their message has been strained through their tainted negatives.

They have undefined goals and it makes it difficult to get behind their effort! It is gaining ground with some old school protesters joining in the cause like Pete Seeger who is 92~ sam

I did one post...
But I think we're all waiting to see if they are a flash in the pan or if they are going to become the next "TEA" party.

I think that it has to gain more traction before people start analyzing it more.
