I think it might have made some people aware of issues from the corporate world that they may have previously not given thought to....so maybe a discussion will take place about things like corporate social responsibility, honour, trust and decency. Maybe some people will demand these traits from those they send to govern them, maybe they will choose more carefully where they invest their money.

So maybe, just maybe things will improve

Apparently the Occupy Wall Street movement was the .001% protesting the 1%.

The 98.999% have already moved on, Some Christian-owned takeway chain is currently feeling the fleeting wet bus ticket of internet outrage.
