(62,325 posts)are still there, now that all the cameras are gone are truly heros. Not just Occupy, which was been outstanding from the beginning in their efforts for Sandy's victims, but all the others, the churches etc who have worked with them also. And as always, the first responders.
Now when is Wall Street going to step up and contribute something to this country that has been so kind to them? Goldman Sachs? They own almost everything here now, including part of Burgher King? Have they donated anything at all?

and now I wonder if she will follow up show on what those "burn outs" are now doing
for the victims of Sandy.
