My unpopular opinion in the entertainment circles: The ''Occupy Movement'' is not accomplishing, nor will it accomplish anything in the long run. The majority of it's followers are just that - followers, those with no leadership ability whatsoever, nor do they have any suggestions for how to solve our Nation's problems. They're sheep looking for something to identify with - a group in which they feel they fit in. They're no different than most of those aligned with any political party, religion, or club. Plus, they think that ''revolution'' can come from non-violent protest, and to that I say the joke is on them. That said, they still have a good soundtrack.
