Forum Post: Is OWS calling for the collapse of the stock market?

This is something I heard someone say. I heard a man who was singing protests songs say he wanted the stock market collapse. Is this a goal of the Occupy movement? Do you think having people who worked hard all their lives loosing their retirement would help the country?

Big problem with this movement, no clear message or goal. I am left in terms of wanting universal healthcare, equal opportunity etc. but am I wrong for also wanting a robust economy and a strong market? This lack of vision is what makes it impossible for me to support this movement.

Ok, so far that's 1 yes and 2 no votes. Thanks. Hearing this sentiment turned me off to your movement. It's unfortunate that there is no unified message.

I would be quiet happy if the stock market collapsed actually

You may feel that personally, but that wasn't the question. No, OWS does not wish to see a stock market collapse
