I don't know if you saw that trader on the BBC, but he says Goldman Sachs controls the world not the government.
What about the Fed and it's link to the big banks?
This is a new age where protests are no longer passed to state actors but to the puppet-master corporations who have multinational power.
Yes the government has neglected it's responsibilities and it isn't blameless. But people are aware that in a capitalist system, there are problems that originate from outside the government.

the trader was a fake, it was another Yes Men hoax, a left-wing protest group

Beware, Drudge has increasingly been linking to Infowars and PrisonPlanet stories. These are sites run by the disreputable Alex Jones, a very minor radio figure with an audience of mental patients. Think Micheal Savage, but with less sanity and more volume.
Do you remember the "black helicopter" craze? That was Alex Jones. AJ has also dishonestly postied pics of the training of Republic of Georgia soldiers for MP duty at a location near Ft Dix NJ. He claims, despite the actual explanation by the picture taker, that these were first UN/NWO concentration camps, now he claims they are FEMA camps.
I put both inforwars and prisonplanet into my local Hosts file so that I don't get tricked into clicking on them. Do your own research or you can use mine. He's a liar, as in he knows he is lying, and he's a 9/11 Truther, if anything he says reflects what he believes.

If someone in the Obama campaign is behind these mindless marches, just what voters are they trying to influence? Obama already has the far left in his pocket because they have no one else to turn to, barring some splinter candidacy by someone even more to the left of Obama (but who could that be?).
BTW, that "trader" on BBC was exposed by The Telegraph (probably Britain's most reliable paper) as a fake. He's not a trader, he is a professional public speaker and he freely told The Telegraph that he just wanted to get on TV.
