Interview at the hot spot

Since Occupy Wall Street became a big issue in the U.S, Protesters of the demonstration have gathered with the same hope and stayed at the hot spot, Zuccoti Park located around Wall St. People in the U.S have been through financial difficulty since economic status got down all over the world, especially in America. There were no chances to appeal it to the government, because most of them were powerless citizens. The only thing they could do was to gather together and demonstrate for it. It was not a riot, or war, it was just appeal for the better status in people’s lives as citizens who had their own rights to do that. The people who I interviewed with some questions our professor gave us were there, at the hot spot, with their own purposes but the same hope just like other people. Apollo Mark, 49, computer service, said he thought it was an opportunity to make a difference and change and the only thing he wanted was to live ordinary life, like lying down comfortably on the couch as stretching the legs out. One guy, who wanted to be anonymous, also said he was unemployed after graduating 4 year college with student loan, but there was no opportunity to get a job because of the economic crisis. He was just angry at the government and financial corporates in wall St which was the starting point of the economic crisis.
Occupy Wall Street was not just demonstration for the economic crisis in Wall St. Protesters didn’t want to see big changes in everything during the depression, they just wanted to see how the government and the financial corporates tried to make it better. Protesters still have the wishes on the street.
