Funny you say that. I thought it was weird that he didn't mention it because I've been in the industry for years.

But apparently, he left them out on purpose so as not to be associated with Occupiers (according to them) http://blog.debtcollective.org/whos-afraid-of-occupy-hbos-jo...

> he left them out on purpose so as not to be associated with Occupiers

That was probably a good idea. Some people (including some liberals) would close their ears as soon as they heard about any association with Occupy.

If I were him, I would have put it in at the end, but I would have included what they did even if he didn't say he worked WITH them.

What they did was very important- and as an economist I would say that they deserve to be included in the history of dealing with this massive debt problem
