Unions Join Occupy Wall Street Demonstrations

Occupy Wall Street now has the backing of reputable American unions. Demonstrations against the American financial system are now in their third week.  

Thousands were out to protest on Wednesday with students and union-workers standing side-by-side. But the protesters are citing many different motives for protesting.

The New York Police Department ramped up security during the march yesterday. Several hundred more were arrested and protesters deemed disorderly were pepper-sprayed. Solidarity protests have now spread across the U.S. and into Canada.
