"ROME (Reuters) - Demonstrators rallied Saturday across the world to accuse bankers and politicians of wrecking economies, but only in Rome did the global "day of rage" erupt into violence.
Galvanized by the Occupy Wall Street movement, the protests began in New Zealand, rippled east to Europe and were expected to return to their starting point in New York. Demonstrations touched most European capitals and other cities.
They coincided with the Group of 20 meeting in Paris, where finance ministers and central bankers from the major economies were holding crisis talks.
While most rallies were small and barely held up traffic, the Rome event drew tens of thousands of people and snaked through the city center for miles."

Two things come to mind when I read this. One - how long before the slackers here decide to upstage Rome? And if they do, will it grow or be quickly snuffed out?
Aparently, in most areas of the world where this shit is going on, it's pretty peaceful. So maybe it will just ffffuuffaadde away..
Second, what is the goal of this "movement"? They are pissing and moaning about losing their cheese... but what are they suggesting? Communism? Tax the shit out of the rich?
