What a difference a month makes!
Occupy Wall Street has grown from a curiosity to a media event to a world-wide global phenomenon.
You know it's a real phenomenon when the abbreviation OWS is casually used, since the assumption is that now everyone knows what it is.
And OWS has changed the national debate. shining a huge spotlight on the issues of unemployment, corporate malfeasance, and the gap between rich and poor. OWS has stolen the Tea Party's thunder, with 54% of Americans approving it, and only 24% approving of the tea baggers.
Suck it Republicans!
The most amazing thing: this movement is only a month old. One little month. And considering how big it's become in such a short time, who knows where this could lead?
