What are the occupy wall street people really mad about?

Question

I think it has to do with the concept of you can't get a high paying job without a college education, and the myth that if you have a college degree you will get a high paying job.
People with good jobs tend to be college educated, but they are also lucky and successful.
Actually ,if you are lucky and successful you can get a good job without a diploma.
So, these people went to college to get a good job, then after they graduate, they are told that they are not hiring new people because of the economy.
They are mad because the 1% ruined our economy, thus they are out of work.

They were pretty much lied to. They were told that taking out all those big student loans was going to be worth it, but when they graduated and went looking for work, they found out that this was not going to be so.  Student loans cannot be saddled off with bankruptcy; therefore, what can they do? It is natural that they would choose to protest, and the big bankers deserve it. Okay,  they are laughing at them now! Give it time.

who cares, I'm tires of those hippies.  Try and get a job instead of protesting a losing battle and stop trying to get out of paying your debt you agreed to take on.

They're mad because they aren't getting enough free stuff out of society.  Nothing more.
