1. Not much going on in other countries
So much for their holier-than-thou comments about how Americans are apathetic.

Come on, world, get with the program!

2. That website shows a chart indicating that the .01% hold an excessively disproportionate share
of the wealth. That is a small number of people. Who are they? Who is in the top .01%? I cannot imagine who they might be.

4. Wait till tomorrow!
From OWS minutes last night:

Saturday is the largest mobilization globally! We are connected with the Arab Spring, with what’s being planned in Greece, in Spain, and other places around the world. We have protests being planned and have been scheduled. You can find that information on our website nycga.net.
