Unfortunately, in the US unlike Europe - majority of society is concerned with their own mortgage and wealth so until the protest includes shutting down Wall St, Government, etc. affecting their financial bottomline/operations. That is the only catalyst to causes reaction by the big wigs vs. currently which is just noise outside their windows.
There is a difference between protest and a revolution.
