Response to Occupy Movement

First of all, I have never been very interested in politics. It is important, though, that I know what is going on with this movement. This article was the first time I actually found out how the whole Occupy Movement started. I found it interesting that it was fueled by a challenge from a magazine. The magazine told them to “bring a tent.” A few thousand people showed up and camped at Zuccotti Park, which started the global movement. This movement isn’t like other movements; there is no set demand and leadership is broadly shared. What they want is a world that works for the 99%. They want the system to be fixed so that the rich don’t keep getting richer while there are people struggling day in and day out.
