The biggest problem I have with the protests is that the official 14-point plan is absolutely insane, and looks to of been written by a child with no understanding of economics.

That, and everything I've seen from the movement reeks of "gimme, gimme, gimme. Its YOUR fault and I am blameless!"

You want to reform student loans so that you can let them go bankrupt? Take that up with Barak Obama and the legislature, not Wall Street.

There is no official 14 point plan.  Some individuals can go off and claim now there is a 14 point plan, as they have, but it doesn't mean there is one.  On this note, I am seeing both that their "14 point plan is insane" and also "they don't know what they want".  Both these charges are being thrown about and they both can't be true.

What you have is people upset at the current condition for a lot of reasons, have their own opinions and thoughts, and want this or that done.  Doesn't mean the group as a whole has it, but just a bunch of individuals.  So far, unlike the Tea Party (post Ron Paul Revolution), the group hasn't been infiltrated by certain my certain rich individuals and other political powers that be, to push things a certain way, so the message seems muddled.  What I will say is that, if things continue the way it is, that isn't going to happen.
