“They’re on Wall Street and they ran our economy into the ground

The entire occupation preoccupation is a huge attempt at misdirection and blame shifting. Traditionally, when economic times are bad, the incumbents pay the price. To the OWS believers, including large portions of the public, it's not the politician's mischief that's at the root of the problem, it's third parties - businesses, tea partiers, rich people. When Obama says the same things, at least people know that he has a vested interest. But when it's a crowd, then it becomes the voice of the people. More credible this way. I wonder who is paying for the sandwiches.
