Maybe people are back to work and simply no longer have time to protest their outrage in not being among the one percent. People at the time were frightened because so many people were losing their jobs and subsequently their homes. This fear was expressed as anger, angry about the government bailing out corporations, banks, and the government itself, but the government, large corporations and banks are exactly what employ and sustain the vast majority of the ninety nine percent, so it's very important for those institutions to survive and remain sustainable during a recession. In retrospect, the five percent of the population who were suddenly unemployed during the recession but now employed again might be grateful for that, especially if they work for a large corporate label, financial institution, or position paid by the city, state, or federal government. Duke said it well on the first page of this thread when he said, the people in control only care about themselves. Though the people being controlled only care about themselves too and that's why capitalism works in general, and why this movement lost its momentum.
