My irony meter overloaded and blew up when OWS first started up and I realized what they actually 'wanted.'

They are extremely socialist in nature. The theme seems to be that capitalism failed, therefore we need more government to stop the greedy bankers from taking all our money. Fact is, the government created the rules that allowed the bankers to take the money in the first place. Wall Street plays by the rules they are given. OWS fails to realize this. They also fail to understand what real capitalism is, and that the US isn't even close to that anymore.
