Mises.org usually impresses me with their libertarian take on things. The Occupy Wall Street list of demands that he linked to in the article is so outrageous I'm not sure how to approach it. Forgive all debt, worldwide? How does anyone in the OWS movement see that as a rational demand.

None of this is rational, it's just people acting out. I understand their grievances, especially the people who've been laid off, but this is just going to make their own lives harder. Much better would be to retrench, knuckle down, and sink their teeth into getting their careers back online.
As for the professional protesters, well, I just don't know what drives them. Thing is, they're making the job of the president they wanted harder, and it's bad for the country.
