Destructive logic of the “speculative capitalism” has considerably affected the essence of the democratic system in general. Under such an order the democracy was replaced by imitation and PR processes which serve the interests of commercial companies and not the society. The Occupy Wall-Street movement, which is gathering momentum, reflects the objective reality and thus it has turned into a social and political factor.
