Hey guys, so I've been interested in the Occupy Wall Street movements across the nation and I wanted to get y'all's view on it. Today is Historical Methods Lab, or as I call it, Meth Lab, we talked about Occupy Wall Street and whether or not it was generally a good thing or a bad thing. I just want to see if there is an argument for both sides, because I personally think that it is almost fully a bad thing. The lack of organization, the lack of clear goals, the rudeness of the protesters in response to compromises for different things like cleaning the parks, and the blocking of traffic by protesters are all a few reasons why OWS is bad. But a reasons for it being good could be that it is allowing Americans to protest corruption on Wall Street and display how disgruntled they are by the current state of things. So Is it bad or good? YOU DECIDE.
