Since I am still unemployed (got a job and start in a week or so thank you very little) I figured I would check out the whole "Occupy Wall Street" thing going on downtown. A bit of irony, the square they are squatting in is directly across from where I used to work. Oh the irony. But I digress. Today was all about getting to the bottom of the question, "What is Occupy Wall Street All About?" I am hoping that the UN-edited question and answer video taken by The Angry Trader today will shed some light into who are these people and what do they want??
There is one thing painfully clear to us here at The Angry Trader. This is not about (or all about) Wall Street for most people. Just like I wrote yesterday...it is about whatever is pissing people off in their lives. Take a look at the videos. Listen(sorry for the background noise) to what the people have to say. I think the movement should be renamed to, "The American Dream is Gone" or "Government Fail." Here are a few of my interviews.

To this guy, Occupy Wall Street is a battle with the food companies....
I did find one business owner and this is what her husband(?) and she had to say:
The bottom line is the people I spoke with care about Wall Street, but clearly it is not their primary focus. change the name of Occupy Wall Street to Government Fail and all will be well.
