Occupied Wall Street has improved since the last I have been there. They have become more than just a group of people; they grew into a self-made city. I was impressed by who much it has evolved into what it is today. From the outside it looks like a bunch of people living in tents, and sleeping bags. This changes when you take a closer look, they have made a medical ten with substantial medical supplies and medical staff also a make shift kitchen. With a full kitchen staff to care for the hundreds of people that is the Occupied Wall Street. Walking through the camp is another story the smell of questionable substances linger in the air, mixed with the smell of well humans who have not taken a bath in a few months it’s hard to tolerate. The people have changed as well the person I spoke to named “Balance” he is “34” years of age, the reason why he is there is to make a difference, he claims that “ Occupied Wall Street is ground zero where things happen” he traveled from the west end to New York to be part of it. Though as vague as he was he seemed to be friendly, and glad to talk to anyone it’s refreshing to talk to a friendly person or it could be the questionable substances he is possibly on. I had a question to ask him and it was not on the list it was how you will deal with the upcoming winter? His response was he has plenty of military equipment from when he was in the U.S Army, so at least from him that should keep him warm and a cup of coffee won’t hurt.
