For a ‘spontaneous’ movement they seem to have been set up globally pretty quick, with food concessions and everything.

Who paid for the food and the workers salaries?

Did not one journalist even think to follow the money?

Indeed. When I was in Frankfurt there was a bum in front of the ECB with a sign asking for a bit of money from the bank. That was 15 years ago and no one paid attention to this guy. Now we have these university students doing it and all of a sudden they are getting their Sandra Fluke exposure credit. These people are not real bums or representatives, they just do it for the resume self-promotion, fund raising for a specific boss. That independent bum seems not to be part of this agenda like 21.
