I personally think Occupy Wall Street is a great movement and am very excited to see Americans speak up but I have to admit I'm not as impassioned with it as some others are. I know its selfish but I think this probably has to do with the fact that I feel satisfied with my socio-economic situation/place which mostly is tied to being a software engineer ... I feel like I'm rewarded pretty decently and have many future opportunities (note: I am not rich). I think we're all very fortunate to be in the field we are in. Now saying that, I have 1) a lot of empathy for those who are struggling with cost of college, healthcare, etc in that it is very unfair and 2) a lot of concern as to how the current political, cultural and economic paths of the US will impact everyone in the future (including tech).
