But I do hear and read many, including many right here on this site, heralding the upswing in the markets as proof that President Obama's economic policies are working wonders.

But you know what they say...

Occupy certainly helped bring attention to the issue.

I think alot of the anger is sort of quiet right now because it's election time and people don't want to do anything that might accidentally hurt Obama or help Romney.

After the election people will be more free to get back out there and state the obvious: the whole system is corrupt.

The events of "current day Chicago" in cable channel TV's hit "Boss"

TV writers are getting the message and using it as part and parcel of the "real world."
