The
protest movement was started by just a
small group of young people two weeks ago. They were following the example of movements like “la puerta del sol”. It has quickly grown to become a very large
socially mixed movement grouping people of all ages.
It is fighting
against the growing inequalities in the United States: the rich are getting
richer and the rest of the population is getting a lot poorer. Because Wall
Street is at the centre of financial speculation and of the American economy in
general, it was decided to protest there.
From
our point of view this article is incomplete. A
number of things are not mentioned. No
reactions from the political or financial word to what is happening are given.
Also, the older people present are described as being there just to encourage the younger people though they do not seem to agree with the
aim of the movement, which is silly. Does this programme want
to discredit the movement? We think this is a shame as we support the protesters...
