Given time, they'll find their focus. This is the balance I have been waiting for since the Tea Party came into the picture. The US needs a citizen-originated anti-corporatist organization. We need a powerful "grass roots" movement to answer the swing to pro-corporation anti-worker conservatism we've taken. I see OWS as the first step in a corrective turn away from fascism and back towards a more humane democracy. I'm hoping it will eventually provide the yang to the Tea Party's yin.
I was a child of the 60's, raised in the 70's when the 60's optimism was still relatively fresh in some people. I've been waiting for the awakening that was promised but never delivered by the great demonstrations of that era.
It is long overdue.
