Occupation Vancouver

What message did the occupiers send out to us in Vancouver? It is certainly not very clear whether they knew themselves what they wanted to tell us. We did hear in a garbled way that they were protesting the economic inequalities that exist in our society. But did they present any solution to these inequalities? I cannot remember any solution presented by the occupiers.What we saw was people camping on the steps of the Art Gallery and being fed and cared for free of charge. I wonder if they were there because they had nothing better to do. Were these the people who received welfare, but were not looking for work?

The reaction of the Mayor of Vancouver was in it self questionable. While the majority of the population were becoming incensed by the lengthy occupation of the Art gallery,the Mayor was in no hurry to end the occupation. Since the municipal elections were about to take place, did he see this as an opportunity to gain votes?
