Occupy Wall Street failed for much the same reasons the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy failed.
Since 2011 the gulf between the rich and the poor has increased, we've entered into what many are calling a "silent depression", more jobs are being lost to offshoring and automation, 18 and 19 year old's are being brainwashed to take on tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands dollars worth of debt, and the establishment is stronger than ever.
Since 1978, the CEO compensation among America's 300 biggest companies has increased by 1,460% while the average worker's pay has gone up by only 18% (both adjusted for inflation.)
Tent cities are everywhere.
Gas is $6 a gallon in Los Angeles.
People are working three jobs to make ends meet.
All of these things escalated since Occupy Wall Street.
But because of the lack of leadership, lack of clarity, and lack of vision nothing like it has formed since.
If you stand for everything, you stand for nothing.
