I notice a curios division here

36. This movement - Occupy - has been somewhat different than past ones.

Sometimes the 1/3 "was not" and the 1/3 "neutral" are only moved to support social movements where there is an articulate and charismatic leader who can elegantly articulate people’s concerns, and inspire an emotional response - they find it unsettling to act without having a known leader.

Then, if corporations and elites (with the help of corporate media and political elites) can pursuade a portion of those 2/3 that it's their individual shortcomings that are to blame for the social injustice (i.e., they overindulged - bought too much and didn't read the fine print, they're unemployed because they're either lazy or uneducated), the status quo can be preserved regardless of how wrong or misguided its become.

This Occupy movement has grown without one leader and has identified problems deriving not from flawed individuals, but from flawed public policy. While it may experience pain, it will continue to grow since the undoing of social and economic justice in America continues.
