Introduction

Wall Street is an organization that everyone has heard of. An organization that is competing in the major cities of the world has always been a part of the controversy since it has started to grow big. Wall Street has been known to violation of a number of laws, and in the past have been paying fines consistently. It was because of the dirty games of Wall Street that today, a number of small companies have gone bankrupt and a number of companies are struggling very hard to survive. Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is a hot topic of every newspaper these days. OWS is a protest that began recently in 2011 on 17th of September. This protest started in the Zuccotti Park which is located in the city of New York, this place is also known as the financial district for the Wall Street. This protest was actually initiated by an activist group currently operating in Canada. The group is called to be the Ad busters and is a root cause of a lot of protests that have taken place internationally and domestically the main issues that led to trigger this movement was the economic inequality, greed, corruption and the influence of government on big organizations.

The stated aim of bringing business in the commercial capital of the US to a standstill went unfulfilled, but as rain gave way to a bright spring afternoon, traffic ground to a halt in lower Manhattan as the Occupy movement's most anticipated day of action in months took hold. There have been so far reported to be a number of clashes that have took place between the police and the civilians and a great loss has been reported, as many as 50 people have been reported to be arrested but the story has so far has not been able to brought to a ...
