We are in this situation, primarily, because food and medicine is present-enough to enable more life but is not yet at levels sufficient to allow that life to thrive to the point that people reduce their procreation rates by choice.
But all of that is an aside to my point, which is that you are still either mis-understanding or mis-representing the OWS position as something of a "blame everything on the 1%" philosophy.
OWS has a very narrow platform of "money has corrupted politics". The fact that OWS was roundly criticized as not having a point is attributable to the fact that the Occupiers didn't agree on much beyond the statement of the problem. That is: they all agreed that money needed to be taken out of politics, but they disagreed on whether, say, ethanol subsidies were necessarily bad, or GM seeds were causing problems in the developing world, etc.
Some of them obviously believed in those things. Others just wanted to see an end to 'too big to fail' and socialized losses. But those were not 'occupy's positions.
