Occupy Wall Street Who? Agree or Disagree with this protest?

Occupy Wall Street Who?

A new national University of Delaware survey reveals that since the start of the Occupy Wall Street movement, almost one in five Americans have heard nothing at all about it. Even among those who are aware of the movement, one third cannot identify the protests’ main message (that too few control the majority of the nation’s wealth and power). Nineteen percent say (incorrectly) that the movement was protesting excessive regulation of business and industry. Of those who say that they’ve heard about the protests, the majority agree the protests offered new insights on social issues.
