Jason Selvig and Davram Stiefler want tore-take Wall Street

Two guys who say they are bankers have shown up at Zuccotti Square announcing their plan to "Occupy Occupy Wall Street."

Their arrival certainly stirred up some angry reactions at Occupy Wall Street. But it seems highly likely that they are pranksters. It's hard to imagine anyone seriously proclaiming "We like the status quo," as they say on their website.

For now, it seems that the police have decided to keep them apart from the other protesters. Perhaps out of fear of violent clashes.

But, as I said, this seem to be more of a prank than a genuine counter-revolutionary action by investment bankers.
