If you've watched the news lately, you've noticed the economic hard times have sparked unrest about economic inequality and corporate greed. Domestically, it has manifested with the Occupy Wall Street protests, which have spread to other cities and communities across the country. Elected officials have taken notice, as it has been addressed by the president, vice president, and presidential candidates in the Republican debates. But, of course, it remains to be seen whether or not they'll take action. If changes are made, then regular U.S. citizens, who had the courage to use their voice, can be credited for getting the ball rolling. It's incredible what can emerge from a simple protest — just take a look at the few listed below. Without them, the world wouldn't evolve.
