Occupy Wall Street

The protest that started in New York spread to every state in the U.S., and cities around the world.

According to ABC News, the protesters agree "that banks and financial institutions need to be taxed more and regulated more thoroughly, and that the money should go toward education (teachers and students facing loan debt), health insurance, homeowners facing foreclosure. "

You can see their official "Declaration of the Occupation of New York City" here and their proposed List of Demands here.
