OWS leading to people getting laid off?

If you were an average business person and your walking around trying to find a good little pizzeria to grab a pizza, would you go to the pizzeria with all the protesters close by ranting & raving or would you walk a few extra blocks in order to avoid the chaos? Especially in a business suit  I don't think you would like to pass by OWS. Well that's the feelings of allot of business people working in the city. They want to try and avoid OWS as much as possible. I would be too I wouldn't want people yelling & harrasing me while I'm just trying to grab something to bite. Well if many people feel this way, how do you think those businesses are doing? Sure there's a ton of people in OWS that may be buying from any of the local stores but if they are fighting to get more money, what makes you think that they'll have enough to buy food or what not every day? Yeah not likely. So while OWS fights for their right for a job & money, they are not taking into account what they are doing to everyone around them. I personally find THEM to be selfish. Why do the businesses have to be punished for something that is not their fault. Some people had to even cut back their labor force in order to continue making a living, as seen on the video below.

As you can see, in order for the business to continue doing better they have to put up baracades to protect the people. This is COMPLETETLY not necessary to have to go through all of this for the protestors of OWS. I just wonder if they understand that while they are "trying to do the right thing" they are hurting individuals just like them.
