Occupy Wall StreetThis will be a clear message and observation resource moving forward for OWS NYC. Together with the occupywallst.org site, there should be no problem identifying #occupy positions on society and government.
Note that each article reaffirms commitment to Rule of Law. We know that the Depression of 2008 was caused by corporate corruption. We are our own leaders.
