If the economy was just peachy and everyone had a job, there would not be an occupy Wall street. |

 Coolness: 129705 | Wall Street is a stock exchange where people buy and sell stock and other commodities, anyone, including yourself, can invest
It has nothing to do with job creation, governments are the ones who are supposed to do that |

Bernie Sanders (I-VT) If this country is to break out of the horrendous recession and create the millions of jobs we desperately need, if we are going to create a modicum of financial stability for the future, there is no question but that the American people are going to have to take a very hard look at Wall Street and demand fundamental reforms. I hope these protests are the beginning of that process. ...more here [ www.commondreams.org ] |

| Coolness: 129705 | Haha...very clever
Still dosent change the fact that Wall Street IS a stock exchange. [ en.wikipedia.org ] Wall Street refers to the financial district of New York City,[1] named after and centered on the eight-block-long street running from Broadway to South Street on the East River in lower Manhattan. Over time, the term has become a metonym for the financial markets of the United States as a whole, or signifying New York-based financial interests.[2] It is the home of the New York Stock Exchange, the world's largest stock exchange by market capitalization of its listed companies.[3] Several other major exchanges have or had headquarters in the Wall Street area, including NASDAQ, the New York Mercantile Exchange, the New York Board of Trade, and the former American Stock Exchange. Anchored by Wall Street, New York City is one of the world's principal financial centers. Learn your facts ;) |

| Coolness: 129705 | The point is know your facts lol... its that simple.
Wall street dosent create the jobs (unless you're a stock broker), governments create jobs You guys are like a bunch of sheep, someone says occupy, you just follow, not even sure of what you're fighting for. |

| Coolness: 158755 | Again, I still don't know where to start with that statement.
And rather than trying to argue with a wanker, I'd rather go an exercise my constitutionally-protected rights to voice my opinion. For something I believe in. Have a great afternoon, wanker. |

| Coolness: 129705 | Bait people? By posting definitions from wikipedia? LOL...
Try to come up with something better than "I dont know where to begin". Im curious to hear your logic! Update » Blisss wrote on Sat Oct 15, 2011 @ 7:15pm Here's video of the New York Stock Exchange. As you can see there are computers and people trading stocks. Now the way it works is compagnies trade shares on the market. Now anyone can trade on the stock market. You can buy what you want and sell what you want. Now as you can see most of the people that work there are stock brokers or financial anaylsts (and yes some janitors). Those of the jobs Wall Street provides. If you go to school and study hard, you too can work on Wall Street if you want. There is excellent business program at Mc Gill University. Hope that helps you guys understand a bit better what Wall Street is. Let me know if you need any further explanations ;) |

| Coolness: 129705 | I have read the whole thing, and yes I do realize Wall Street is also A STREET, if thats your point....However it isnt a JOB centre.
All they do there is trade shares from existing compagnies. It is a platform for financial exchange. No one at Wall Street actually creates jobs. |

 Coolness: 93480 | I think he nailed the problem. When you think about it, the major demands are 1) Addresss income inequality through redistributional taxation 2) Close corporate loopholes and start punishing corporations for their misdeeds to society at large 3) Address long-term structural issues of competitiveness through a revamp of education with a focus on preparing students for technical post-secondary based degrees, and a better policy to address the outsourcing of jobs and technological innovation that are hollowing the middle class. All these issues are common sense. Why aren't they making it though congress? The video above pretty much nails it. Take the money out of politics Who we need is FDR II. What we need is a new deal II. |
