37 percent of Americans say they support the Occupy Wall Street movement


An Associated Press-GfK poll has found 37% of Americans support Occupy Wall Street. That is about the same percent that support President Obama and class warefare.
(Politico) — Just 37 percent of Americans say they support the Occupy Wall Street movement exploding across the country, a new poll Friday shows.

Although there is not widespread backing of the protests in New York and other cities around the United States, over half — 58 percent — say they are angry about the nation’s political situation, according to the Associated Press-GfK poll. In January, 49 percent said they felt furious when they thought about U.S. politics.

While many say politics makes them angry, even more — nine out of 10 — say the political situation frustrates them, the AP wrote. Almost the same number told pollsters they are disappointed with the nation’s politics.
