Don't seem to read much about the movement now it is winter time,
which says to me that it was more about wanting a hand out than working hard for some money.

That movement sure fizzled out in Baltimore.

I Want Your Money
I was terriby frustrated about by "Occupy" crowd. First, there was no leader, no guide or director to guide them. If you worked hard all your life, you have every right to keep your own money. My father shoveled pavements when he was laid off. We all know people who have two jobs going. Not to save and hoared away, but with this economy, they have no choice.

They need to work hard to get what they want and merely screaming is not the way to go about it! I have worked my whole life and although not wealthy I am content! I think they need to learn to be content as well! sam

That sounds like a very Republican view point, pitting the "haves" against the "have nots." But you're right. Like anything else in this country, the opportunity is there for anyone to "make it" anywhere, if you're willing to work for it. I don't want any hand-outs, and I don't feel as though any of the wealthy owe me anything. That's why personally I never really understood the Occupy movement in the first place. Those people never clearly stated what they wanted to happen! Confusing!
