Wall Street Occupied... Is a Revolution Possible?

I have been looking it the protest going on around the U.S. and it sparked a couple questions in my head. My cousin who is in NYC tells me it is more serious than what is shown on T.V. I have seen videos show how celebrities are not even being welcomed do the wealth status.

My question is how serious can this get, will this escalate? Is wall streets influence in politics over stepping constitutional boundaries? What would it take to push citizens over the edge? Do modern day Americans possess what it takes to stand up to government? is America on its way to being one of the great civilization to collapse like Rome, Egypt, and several Chinese dynasties.

What do you think? or is it all irrelevant.

I don't know how there could be a revolution if the protesters don't even know what they want. There is no unified goal, just a bunch of people camping in parks across the country. If they get organized, I think there could be some influence to pass new legislation of some sort, but I don't really see that happening.
