[lbo-talk] OWS--wouldn't getting cleared out by the police be a great move?

[Carrol Cox]

You were not wholly wrong. A difficulty the Occupations will run into 
eventually is what the military calls an "exit strategy."  (This is NOT 
a criticism; it's an observation.) Nothing goes on forever. Whatever it 
turns out to be, when it happens many will say, "Ah, it failed after 
all." That will be just as nonsensical as similar statements after 
Wisconsin.

I think, looking back over the last few decades it will be possible to 
proclaim:

Well dug, Old Mole.
