For those who think Occupy Wall Street is ineffective

[Summer Hathaway]

36. Thank you for your thoughtful response

I say 'they' not 'we', because I am not a member of the OWS movement. I have not participated, nor do I intend to - until I know what their plans are, and how they intend to go about achieving the things they have said they want.

Is their plan to simply 'occupy' more parks and 'discuss' what's wrong with the world? Is their plan to become more aggressive, even violent?

I have chosen two extremes to make a point. It could, of course, be any multitude of things in between the two.

I only speak for myself. But that is my problem: I have heard what is wanted, some of which are valid points. (I say 'some' because I've heard some contradictory things from different groups in different cities). But I have yet to hear the 'how' of accomplishing what is desired.

When someone says come join us, and is asked what their plans are for accomplishing their goals, "We'll let you know eventually" is not a good enough response.
