Occupy Wall Street
Former Obama Official: Why I Applaud “occupy the SEC”
In the months since Occupy Wall Street pitched its first tents last September, one criticism of the movement has been that it does not offer much in the way of solutions. Enter Occupy the SEC, an Occupy offshoot made up of activists and veterans of the financial sector. Instead of taking the public stand of OWS, they re using a different tactic: They ve written a detailed 325-page analysis of the Volcker rule. And, in my view, they ve got it exactly right.
