It achieved a fair bit I reckon. It has spread like wildfire online, the video has gone viral, it's what a lot of people talk about. Isn't that achieving something?
And if we consider protests as 'non achieving events', what powers do we as citizens have left?
Sorry, but I don't see the results of the widespread Banking reforms or transparent investigations in to top echelon bankers that the Occupy "movement" achieved. If everyone was truly concerned/angered and looking for change, the attitude that we're not going to be fisted by our governments any-more would go viral and 10's of thousands of people would take to the streets in each city, not just tune in to 10's of thousands of pointless circular discussions like this.
