=**Occupy Wall Street**= Protesting against Wall Street firms accusing them of greed and being the cause of the bad economy in 2011. These protests began in the fall of 2011 and have continued throughout the fall.

The majority of those protesting want a form of socialism. The links below will give you more information. Similar "occupy" movements took place in major American cities resulting in numerous arrests and violence.
