So, since OWS is leaderless, some groups will invariably do things others do not....

like making demands. Demands are good, I think, for a movement. It's a target. And the target provides direction.

So, what direction do some OWS groups go in?
What are their demands?

What do you mean who is left to police the govt?
When everybody agrees that someone needs to police they govt, they do so.

Agreement before joint action.
That's the point.

I interviewed a Famous GuyTM today. He made this very point about organizations generally. Agreement ensures failure -- especially in a rapidly changing world with highly complex and difficult-to-predict dependencies.

I don't like disagreements because I'm wishy-washy and always see the other person's point of view..it's much better for my well being if everyone just agrees with me.

I hear Qadaffi was a big fan of everyone having the same opinion.

You make a strong case. I will have to completely reconsider my views.

Yeah but look at the hats. They're the same! ;(

I don't care if we agree. I just want to see us return to the days when we could disagree, yet reach some mostly equitable compromises.
