Wut? I say let them stay. I'm good with them centralizing. I like the personal dedication to an ideal and the personal donations that get it done rather than government subsidies.
Require them to do the same things as the TEA Party did (get some porta-potties for instance), but otherwise I'm good with them sitting around and not going after the jobs that the doers want.
I just think the TEA Parties should join them and show them how it is done. They still haven't gotten the numbers equivalent to the TEA Party's first weekend, but they'll get there over time. Have fun, sing songs, drum drums... I'm going to work and we'll see you on the weekend.
Lol! talk about being out of touch with reality! Occupiers are there because there are no jobs! Many college grads who have to move back in with their parents. That's one of the many reasons people are identifying with the Occupy movement.
Surprise, surprise: Thanks to a high unemployment rate for new grads, many of those with diplomas fresh off the press are making a return to Mom and Dad's place. In fact, according to a poll conducted by consulting firm Twentysomething Inc., some 85% of graduates will soon remember what Mom's cooking tastes like.

Not equal to the Teabagg numbers? out of touch again...
Occupy Wall Street Spreads Worldwide
OCT 17, 2011 | 269
The Occupy Wall Street movement continues to grow and has now spread across the world, motivating thousands to voice their anger at financial and social inequality, and in some places merging with existing anti-government protests. On Saturday, a global "Day of Rage" was observed, and demonstrations took place in more than 80 countries around the world. Protesters took their messages and anger to the streets from Hong Kong to Fairbanks, from Miami to London, from Berlin to Sydney, and hundreds more cities large and small. The demonstrations were largely peaceful -- with the exception of some violent clashes in Rome. Collected here are some images from the past several days as the Occupy Wall Street message continues to resonate and grow. [50 photos]

One thing is for sure... many former teabaggers have joined the occupy movement.
"We liberals like to contend that the Tea Party started out as what they claim to be and were bought by Freedomworks and the Koch brothers, but there's a fallacy in that theory. People have minds, and they have the ability to agree with some of the things their leaders say or do and not with others.
Agreeing that the people who robbed the nation and collapsed the world economy should be held to account does not make a Tea Party member pro-abortion or pro-gay marriage. It doesn't mean that they have turned their backs on their other political beliefs. It simply means that they believe in the rule of law and even the rich must bow to it's authority. It means that they agree with Thomas Jefferson when he said;
"I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied
corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial
by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country." -- Thomas Jefferson, 1816
